[sdiy] repair spring reverb tank

[Scott Nordlund]

I had an Accutronics tank in a Tapco 4400 spring reverb that was 
damaged in shipping.  One of the wires broke off a transducer.  I 
managed to order a replacement from Accutronics for $15, which was,
luckily enough, exactly what the seller refunded me for the damage.

It appears that Belton has since acquired Accutronics, I don't know 
what this means for parts availability.  Reverb tanks are cheap anyway.

Also you've probably figured this out already but you should be able
to unhook the springs from the transducers, if this is all that's 
happened it's not hard to re-attach them.
