Reverb Tank C+ head

[tony777]

Hey!
Does anyone know the model code for the reverb tank in a mark IIc+ short head?
(FYI the combo has this code 8AB2A1B)

Very appreciated

Tony

My three all have 9AB2A1B.

My three all have 9AB2A1B.

Aren't the 9 series too big for a short head?

I have a 1985 IIC+ short head with a 9AB2A1B and it fits perfectly.
I would not confuse the length of the reverb decay, like long or short for the size of the tank.

I've been lurking around at mark series head pics on the net,
and I'm starting to believe that my head isn't an original head, and the shell is from another mesa amp, than a mark.
OR, they didn't make room for the reverb tank, if the amp didn't have the reverb option.

This is because there is not room for the reverb tank that is in my combo.
Yes, without the bag.

Any thoughts, if you know something I don't?

A 9AB2A1B fits with at least 1 inch if room on either side if the tank for a normal 1X12 combo.

The thing is that I want to swap my two amps, so my reverb equipped amp is in my head, and the non-reverb is in my combo. but there is no room for the reverb tank in my head.
It seems like i have to do some handywork, and make room for it.

I'm also in search for a spare headshell, with room enough for the reverb.
