I used some surplus tanks I got from All Electronics years ago. No idea
what model they are but they're fairly long (longer than the ones in the
PAiA catalog picture). I used two pairs for a stereo reverb. They're not
matched and they don't sound exactly the same but even so they're much
better than a guitar amp reverb.
