I am bummed. I don't often work on electronics... but I replaced some speakers in a guitar amp. I had to tear the whole thing apart including the built-in EQ (and it was complicated!) just to remove the old woofers. I had to cut and splice several wires so I could access the woofers.

Well, just got "THE PHONE CALL" -- from the customer... She took it home plugged it in, and it smoked. No, I didn't test it. I labeled all the splice points, but must have f'd - up. Looks like I'll be paying out $500 for a new rig. Damn.

I offered to get her a nice rig for about $250 (my friend has aguitar shop)... but she insists the old one (and it was a pice of shite) get repaired because it had a special "Tone" she liked...

Another lesson... stick to speakers, leave electronics stuff up to the other guy. Not the phone call I was expecting... I thought (I have caller I.D.)--- that she was calling to tell me how awesome it sounded... is it Beer -Time yet? Man oh man.
