I have several you could try if you can tell me the requirements (i.e. 9v)Just had a quick swatch on Google and if it's a ToneLab then it's 12v and my T.Rex Fuel Tank should be able to power tha.

Jaaakkkeee Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I got in touch with hate event and told him it was more out of me being lazy than not actually being able to do it. The walk to work is bad enough without howffing a bass round the road too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 It's more the straplock bit I'm owrried about. Needs a new screw and maybe the holes filled then redrilled again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Easy Wishes Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 It's more the straplock bit I'm owrried about. Needs a new screw and maybe the holes filled then redrilled again.Fill the existing hole with matchsticks (minus their heads) and wood glue. Then re-screw. Has worked for me a bunch of times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Yeah, like I said, I'm confident enough to do it, just far too lazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Cheers dude. In fact, if you can just solve my straplock problem, I'll do the jack. You'll need to provide the materials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flights Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I have a vox Cambridge 30 amp and I think that the built in tremolo 'sticks' in the quiet part of the tremolo effect when the depth is turned all the way down. When both tremolo controls (speed and depth) are turned up I get loud top volume but when they are turned off it is definitely a lot more quiet. Ive looked into online and it seems like a common issue with these amps. Alot of people put a fender tremolo opto into it but if I'm honest I wouldn't miss the built in tremolo if it was gone. Would it be possible to repair this or even bypass the tremolo completely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
