Pedal Repairs Peterborough Area

professorben

Hi all, just had an SD-1 with a monteallum mod that's taken a knock in transit, little dpdt switch is buggered. 

Anyone know simeone in the area to fix this? 

I might do it my self but I'm on call again this week and spare time is just a distant memory recently.

Yeah I tried him, but looking at a 2-3 week turnaround.

Same thing happened to mine. The switch became temperamental. I cured it by stuffing a bit of card under it between the PCB.
Not a very professional cure but it's working fine.

Yeah it's got a bit of tape ensuring no grounding out, but the actual switch has taken a kicking.

There's Chris Newman in St. Ives. He also does amp repairs.

There's a couple in Leicester if you deem that "in the area"! Howard Smith has done a couple of mine, and John Southgate is highly recommended too. The latter saw to my AC30, and does pedals too.

He's the best bet then, doesn't charge much and isn't a twat.

Sounds like a great recommendation.
