Bump just to remind people.

No idea why it went like this. Its supposed to be a case like this. It is quite thin but not that thin.

Sorry, I thought we were talking about ears. Thats slightly more tricky than ears as it needs the right colour grey and a line in the middle. Its normally easier to buy them if you can TBH. Have you looked at RS Components or Farnell? RS Components has 104 pages of knobs, none of which look like Nigel Farage. The other thing I'd do is take a picture of the knob and do a reverse search on the image on Google to see if anything else pops ... Sorry to be confused, the offer of a drink still stands. Rob

I have made 3d printed rack ears for my network gear. Its dead easy to design but it depends on the size and weight of the gear. Technically it depends on the centre of gravity of the unit. I can print it relatively strong (note the word relatively). However if you have a 50Kg tube amp thats 30cm deep and the transformer and valve units are at the back of the unit, that'll be a stretch for the ears. Conversely if the weight is at the front and its solid state, I suspect its fine. One way to check this is to weigh the unit as whole. Then find a nice pivot point to rest the amp on (simple narrow piece of wood), put two pieces of foam underneath the amp either side of the pivot point and move the point around until the amp kinda balances. Is it at the front, the back, or in the middle? That plus the weight should give a rough idea of whats needed. One other way is I keep printing bigger and stronger ears and give them to @ossyrocks until they work. A better way would be for him to bring the amp and rack to me (we live about 40 mins from Morecombe/Lancaster near Settle) along with a glass or two of something nice and we try it out on the spot and adapt.

This was a case for a Phil Jones HA-2 Headphone Amp or was supposed to be Never had one blow up like this before.

Five mins? In some parts of the UK, scroats will have all four wheels off your car, radio out, boot cleared in 30 secs and they'll be chatting your missus up at the same time. They're now gainfully employed teaching F1 teams how to be even faster in the pit stops.

I've used many Premier Inns for work across the UK. Never worried once about leaving laptops and other equipment in the rooms. A lot of the time, it was my own laptop or two, not sure I've ever given it much of a thought. Slightly more concerned about work ones as plod gets involved as they are HO property.

I can lay my hands on one if you want. Home Office approved as well. As supplied to the Met

... With a taser?

Filled with epoxy resin apparently... I think the way he's calculated the value is slight wrong. He should be deducting what he's done to the price not adding it

I looked up the colour on Fenders website. It can't find my serial number thought it looks legit, but what do I know

Strange new usage of the word "superbly" I hadn't heard before.... Looks like the frets were pulled out by his teeth Rob

I think you are correct and it's Sapphire Blue.

Dunno, I have no paperwork, it was brought second/nth hand from Nothern Guitars in Leeds. Plays nicely, apparently a 97 and I thought it was Lake Placid Blue but have zero recollection of how I knew that. It has matching headstock in the same colour.

That's absolutely brilliant

How many different Fender blues are there Rob

Its a lot lighter than my Lake Placid Blue Jazz. This is a 97 in Lake Placid blue, I think you have Pelham Blue. Though after saying that I spotted this on Reverb which they claim is Lake Placid blue. and then went down the rabbit hold and found these load of Fender blues https://offsetguitars.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=115967 So I have absolutely no idea what colour it is, black, red, purple? Rob

Some new bizzare finger picking technique or big dint or hole and he wants to cover it. Only thing I can think of. Rob

Headline act, new bass, sounds like an ideal time and place....

Any explanation as to why it 33 weeks? At this price level, its probably cheaper to put a new one in the post rather than paying someone to fix the board. Not good for recycling but less expensive.
