Reverb with feedback loop?

I missed out on the first run of the Death By Audio Sunshine Reverb pedals made for or "in light of" Ty Segall. It got a very loose "springy" sound and it has a feedback knob to make the reverb go into a oscillation frenzy. So it got me thinking... is there a way to add a similar feedback loop to a RubaDub or any other Belton based verb pedal. Is it a matter of feeding the output back into the Belton brick or something like that? I'm getting some of the same sounds as the DBA with a Earthquaker Ghost Echo clone I'm working on but I would really like to add this feedback loop thing.. thoughts?

Here is a nasty demo of the sunshine.. I love how nasty it is.

I'm pretty sure Grind Customs Tenebrion Reverb project has a feedback control (labelled 'dwell' on the old spring units).

That may be the way to go if you want a ready to go project.

All I have to say is - Ty Segall RULES

Thank you for your attention.

Thanks guys for the comments.. I got the schematics for the Grind Customs Tenebrion and one other reverb with feed back and now I just got to figure out how to incorporate it into other Belton based pedals. I went to buy a Grind Customs Tenebrion last night but it looks like they are out of stock at the moment. I wonder if there is a single sided layout floating around.

And yes.. Ty Segall does rule :]

I did find this single sided reverb pedal pedal with a feedback.

This looks promising.

That there's CJ's box of Hall -- which is the direct precursor to the Tenbrion.

Rob did post his layout, I believe, and I'm sure he'd be happy to share it if he didn't.

Time to revive an old thread since I am still trying to achieve this. I pretty much got the reverb sound down using the Deadastronaut Reverb layout from DIYSB but now I am looking for a solution for the gain knob on the Death By Audio Sunshine. I really like the type of gain it is but have no idea where to start. I know the DBA guys love to use Electro-Harmonix LPB-1's but Im not sure if it will give me the same type of break up. Can someone take a listen to the video in the first post and give me some ideas what it could be or what can give me the same sound? Also, do you think its just a input gain?

Maybe look into 2 sided etching and move on up to more interesting circuits !
As you seem to be education others on PCB etching, then maybe you should master that process, I use guide holes to align both sides and just parcel tape to protect the other side,firstly to protect the virgin copper then to protect the traces on the etched side, is good practise to keep the through board connecting pads large until you get precise !
