You already sent me this a long time ago ...
Reverb:

This is what I know

2nd generation Overdrive Reverb:
3 tubes (driver, return amp, mix amp,). Mix is done before the OD circuit. So you have ìoverdriven reverbî. By this the reverb gets the more prominent, the more the OD decays. It is a bit like with a Deluxe Reverb in power amp saturation mode. When the note decays, the reverb gets more prominent. These amps have less gain AFAIR than the usual 2nd generation ODS.

4th generation Overdrive Reverb:
3 tubes (driver, return amp, mix amp). Reverb send is behind volume and ratio, mix before master volume. By this the reverb is a bit like an effect in the loop.

SSS:
Some with 3 tubes, some with 2 (2: mix is done by recovery after filters AFAIR)

DL 300SL:
2 tubes. Mix is done by recovery after filters AFAIR

DL 150W with reverb and without filters:
Similar to the 4th generation ìeffect in the loopî structure.
Tony, thanks a lot for explaining the structural details I might have remembered wrong when writing this a long time ago.

All the best and have a nice weekend,
