[BC] Looking for info on the Fairchild 658 spring reverb

[David Reaves]

One system that I recall used two identical spring systems driven in
parallel and received differentially, thus canceling out the
'sproing' or 'twang' sound that is common, while leaving the random
reverb sounds.

But the telltale 'sproing' may be exactly what Tom's client is
looking for. :-)
