Laddie,
The reverb control kit for the *RV Leslies is a switch, you have a choice of

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

$250-$300 per 1000 miles, including protection and insurace. Oh! Well!
