synthaside Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 In hindsight, I should have probably given her a wipe down after the 2 hour getting to know each other session, i spy mucky fingerprints already ..... I could have sworn the one I played had detents in the Eq .... this doesnt ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was scary for a second... we have that same rug at the moment and I have an Old Smoothie 🤔 The 2 band EQ's aren't centre dented, must have been a 3 band you played. Glad you got one, they are quite special. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
