Dan Electro Spring King Battery Holder Repair





























































A battery had gone rotten and melted one of the battery connectors on my Dan Electro spring king.  It was a very simple repair, simply cutting off the old battery connector and replacing it with a new one, using some heat shrink tubing to shield the join.

Opening up the unit, you can see how simple a design is needed to make a good-sounding spring reverb.  Some people also mod this pedal with a PT2399 delay giving you a poor mans RE-201 space echo. Perhaps one day this could be a nice little project...
