Morning, basically my reverb stealth is going to cost ~£170 to get serviced/ repaired (bushes and scratched parts) and that's without the damaged but functional lever being replaced.

So, I'm thinking about cutting my loses and buying new and keeping the other for spares (not sure how much is salvageable). Regular reverbs are £190 on CC at the minute with the option of right or left levers. Which sounds like the best option to me.

Are there any draw backs, excluding looks, to a regular reverb vs a stealth?

Opinions please :)

Thanks CC
