Mighty Long Time/guitar/reverb question

Bobbie asked:
How's the new guitar CD coming along, eh?  heh-heh-heh!  >;)

Thanks for the inquiry, Bobbie.  T'is all recorded and mastered.  Am 
currently in the process of waiting around until the labels stop 
their ridiculous bidding war over it <cough.>  ...More accurately, am 
in the process of begging labels to release it, pretty please with 
sugar on top. :)  Should be out one way or another by late summer. 
Any guitarists with an interest can hear 3 or 4 of the songs on it by 
checking out the new "Dropped-D Tuning For Fingerstyle Guitar" book 
(Hal Leonard.)

Now then... just so that this won't be a completely commercial 
announcement (and also, so that this post has some legitimate harp 
content) I'd like to ask:

Has anybody tried one of the reissue tube Fender Outboard Reverb 
Units?  How'dja like it?  Do they sound like the original?  Loved it? 
Hated it?  Any necessary mods?  Very curious...

Many thanks in advance,

Tom Ball
