However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
Product Ref: 335322
The core of the Spring Amp III lies in its specialised reverb preamplifier design. Using a discrete transistor front-end, the amplifier ensures an ultra-low noise figure and pristine sound capture from your reverb tank. It is paired with a robust 7.5W constant current amplifier optimised for 8-ohm input tanks, pushing the springs to their full potential with extended treble response and impressive output volume. This setup delivers dynamic, clear, and highly mussical spring reverb tones that retain the organic texture and lively character that define classic dub and experimental sounds.
The inbuilt analog filter offers extensive tonal shaping options with a 12dB per octave slope. Featuring a continuous crossfade between high-pass and low-pass outputs, the filter provides rich modulation opportunities. You can easily sweep from bright, piercing highs to deep, resonant lows, sculpting the reverb’s decay and character in real time. A routing switch allows you to decide if the filter processes the sound before or after the spring tank, offering two distinct tonal approaches: mellow and harmonically rich or dramatic and splashy.
Spring Amp III features an integrated soft clipper on both the input and filter stages. This addition means you can push signals into gentle saturation without unwanted distortion artifacts or damaging your speakers. The resulting sound is thick, warm, and full of harmonic complexity, adding an expressive edge to your dub swells, rhythmic hits, and ambient washes. The soft clipping works seamlessly across the unit's dynamic range, making it highly playable for hands-on performance techniques.
Independent volume controls for both the preamplifier and the filter sections grant significant flexibility. This configuration allows the Spring Amp III to be used not only as a spring reverb driver but also as a standalone analog filter unit, ideal for creative signal processing or live improvisation. Connect it directly after an instrument, a mixer, or a studio interface to add lush filtering and saturation to any sound source, expanding its usability well beyond traditional spring reverb applications.
The Spring Amp III represents years of passion and continuous improvement from Benidub, refined through hands-on experience and invaluable user feedback. It carries forward the spirit of classic dub effects while pushing forward into new creative possibilities. With its intuitive layout, top-tier audio fidelity, and inspiring hands-on controls, the Spring Amp III is not just another reverb accessory – it is a performance instrument in its own right, designed for artists who want their effects to be as dynamic and alive as their music.
The TAD Type-8 adds detailed and dynamic reverb to smaller amplifiers. Its three counter-wound springs generate a lively and textured effect that mimics the depth of larger tanks. The result is a smooth, immersive sound with no flutter and a wide frequency response, even in compact setups.
Designed with durability in mind, the tank features an aluminium tray housing the custom-wound transducers. Internal wiring includes stress relief to reduce breakage. Soft grommets help isolate the tank from vibrations, preserving tone quality and keeping mechanical noise to a minimum.
The Type-8 includes standard white (input) and red (output) RCA connectors to fit common amplifier layouts. Multiple mounting holes allow the tank to fit a variety of setups easily, making it a straightforward upgrade or replacement part across a range of models and configurations.
TAD created this tank in response to the discontinuation of USA-made Accutronics units. With a rugged hammertone finish and focus on high-quality construction, it delivers consistent, clear and deep reverb. This makes it a solid choice for musicians needing dependable performance in live or studio settings.
