Default Springline/reverb ID

I've done the google dance looking for info/specs on this springline, but nothing has shown up.

It came out of a Caravelle 610 Deluxe organ (one of a few parts the mice didn't get to) and is marked 'Mod. 200/h' with another sticker with the date 11 Feb 1980.

Dual springlines which are 7" long, outer case is 9 1/2" x 4" including flange.

If any one can identify it or has any info on it, it would be appreciated, although I'm not sure at this stage what I'm going to do with it.

Default Re: Springline/reverb ID

This looks very much like the guts of the Grampian spring reverb unit which I remember experimenting with in the 1960s. The reverb quality is remarkably believable considering the simplicity of the design. It was favoured by Pete Townshend.

More information at https://soundgas.com/pages/grampian-...-unit-type-636 .
