Gandert,
The remark about the distortion on the L was more an attempt at humour than
anything else. Failure of this choke (inductance) in the reverb section is
a not uncommon fault in the L-100. The distortion produced is not a little
bit, like overdrive, it's more like a guitarist's fuzz box pedal, also the
reverb will not work when the choke fails. You could try turning the gain
control on the organ power amp up to get a bit of overdrive.

Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. Douglas Adams

However more overdrive could be usefull once in a while. Where do I find
that ''choke of the 12bh7 in the reverb drive unit''?
