I own one of the older 5:25s and the reverb seems too quiet or to have little effect even maxed at 10. Right now I play with the reverb at max and get some ambience.
I went through a period where I wasn't playing very much at all so I don't remember exactly how the reverb sounded when I got this.
Is it possible that my reverb is broken? I also retubed my power tubes into JJs and use some lower gain preamp tubes like a 5751 and some 12AT7s. Could that have an effect on my reverb?
Let me ask this - what does your reverb sound at 5 or 10?
edit:
V2 - 1st gain - 5751
V4 - phase inverter - 12AT7
V5 - reverb - 12AT7
rest are 12AX7s
