Similar to this thread , f I tack on to that thread I’m afraid it will get “drowned out" since it’s already had multiple " just use an effects loop," etc.

For all amps, especially in last three or four FW updates, there are many, many new/differnt interactive parameters for power amp (grid bias, negative feedback,…) and preamps (hardness, tone stack types, …) not to mention power section transformers – speaker interactions.
With all those interactive parameters and signal flow interactions required: why is there no “insertion point” between the preamp and the power amp for a spring reverb? Yes I know a real amp you need a tank driver & recovery circuit. I'm just asking to re-look at it and if you go there may as well put in a series a tube tremolo (and/or vibrato – aka Magnatone like).
A mic'ed amp that has on-board (organic) reverb is a different sound than a mic'ed amp with reverb added later. Sorry they are different sounds, at least in my age challenged humble opinion. At least I'm not claiming "my 1968 Every Ready carbon 9V batteries sound completely different in my Fuzzface than my 1969 Rayovac 9V carbon batteries”
