Naw, it's mojo. Tone is in the fingers. Lose your reverb handle and you will lose all your mojo, loose your fingers and you will lose all the tone. But an tone makes no sense without an mojo and vice versa. So keep dam both.
WRONG. TONE & BL00z FLOW FROM THE
BUDD-UH.

They sit under the reverb handle, so you can tension it how you like it, and find the handle where you leave it (unless you like it floppy). If you're not using it, bag it up (and shame on you for missing half the fun of the strat). If you are using it, dip it in vaseline before dropping it back in - stops it seizing in the threads, and also tacks it in so it doesn't fall out.
Yeah, its always important to lube up before reverbing.

I've only ever used the pencil eraser trick to unsatisfactory ends unfortunately.
