Old GE-7 needs TLC
Posted: Wed Aug 10, 2022 11:55 am
My ancient - 40 years old this month - GE-7 needs some love and attention. It sporadically refuses to switch on, either via battery or power supply, and it could do with the noise reduction mod, too. I haven't used it for a long time but I'm thinking about firing it up again if I can get it sorted out.
I know you can buy noise reduction kits but I don't know if they are any good and, in any case, I'm rubbish at soldering these days. I was never the best at it but now my eyesight is failing, I really don't trust myself on anything more complicated than a guitar cable.
It also needs a new spring for the pedal and some replacement slider caps.
Does anyone know of a reliable place I can send it to in the UK?
