    @TT , how often do you put down the roof on your car? have you had it down yet this year?

    I took the hardtop off there about a month ago and is now sitting in its stand in the sittingroom. I take it down a fair bit, really wakes ya up at 5am and the exhaust sounds delicious aswell. :D

    Ya do get a bit of attention though (some of it can be unwanted)

    do you feel like a plonker with it down sometimes or is it alright?

    Seeing as a bunch of you a musicians, anybody know somewhere decent to repair a Fender Princeton amp? Can hardly hear it when plugged in and the reverb is also knackered but I'm not worried about that, it's the volume thing thats bothering me

    I just looked up a schematic for your amp, is it an old valve/tube amp:eek:
    If so one of your valves is probably knackered. Maybe 65L7. Or if your really lucky its just the volume pot. Btw im just an electronics Geek i know nothing specifically about gituar amps.

    In answer to your original question.....no i dont know who would repair this:p

    Have you checked the tubes? That's where i'd be putting my money, specifically the output tubes.

    I think all us country folk share this.

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,360 ✭✭✭Dartz

    Learned to drive in a Fiesta 1.2. With the seat so far back I might as well have been in the back.

    Was just coming back from the gym and a young lady who looked about 20 at most was trying to negotiate a 12 c 3 series coupe out of a parking space on college road, car had 3 or 4 passengers of similar age. I can't see the corners of that car staying in good condition for much longer.

    Veg pepper and cream sauce. ( I used all my weight watchers points at the weekend so if I can't have chips I don't want anybody else to have them either!!)
