Telebass Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) Currently have a Mk1 CMD121H and a LMIII head. I want to swap the newer head into the combo, as this will be my main rig from now on. Has anyone done this kind of swap, and how much disassembley is required to remove the feet from the LMIII? Merry Christmas! Edited December 30, 2014 by Telebass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_S Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I've recently done this with a LM800 into a Mini CMD 121P. The feet are just secured with bolts into the chassis - there's nothing holding them at the back on the inside. The process for mine, very quickly, was unscrewing the 4 hex securing bolts, sliding the Combo Head out, taking off two short panels that screw into the same holes as the top panel of the head and help to hold the hex bolts, then removing the feet and top panel from the LM, screwing on the short panels that came off the Combo Head, sliding the LM into the cabinet and securing with the 4 bolts. The combo head can then have the feet and top panel from the LM attached to make it stand-alone, if you like. The caveat to all this is that the screw holes needed to make all this happen are there, but they're not all tapped (the feet and top panel holes in the Combo Head, and the combo securing bolt holes in the LM to be precise). I was able to tap them easily enough with the various screws and bolts, but opted to do so before fitting so I could get some tape on the back to catch the bits of metal and powder coat, then blow the amps out with compressed air to make sure anything I'd missed was removed. Hope that's some help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
