[sdiy] repair spring reverb tank

[Derek Holzer]

Hey Tom,

actually, I did something stupider than yank the springs...I threw it 
into my flight case on the way to a gig and didn't protect it from all 
the other bits in the case. When I got to the gig, two of the three 
springs were pulled out, and one of the wires to one of the transducers 
was broken off. That would be the other challenge, to pull a bit of wire 
out of the transducer's coil to reattach it. Oh well.....
