doc40hz Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Bit of disaster - I somehow managed to pull the volume knob of the stacked control on my Sire. The knob and the spindle have come out and I cant get it to catch inside - its just spinning in the tone pot. I cant figure out how to get it to re-attach. I dont know if I've broken it or just have figurted out how to reassemble it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alembic1989 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Looks like you'll be needing a new stack pot my friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigwan Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Yes new pot required, but in better news that one isn't attached to the preamp pcb so it's a relatively easy fix! Brightside! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burns-bass Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I think the guitar is worthless. I'll offer you £10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
