Rattling Terror Bass

[algmusic]

Recent bought a terror bass second hand. But have noticed that the metal chassis can rattle when you turn the amp up (vibrations from the sp210 cab). I'll be taking it apart to try and sort it, hopefully it should be fine, because I love it and have a live recording on Sunday (using mics and DI)

anyone else has this problem..?

Mine rattles quite a bit, think it could be the springs that hold the valves in. I put a cushion or some foam between the head and cab when I am playing at home and that seems to sort the problem.

Hmm.. I might get some foam or something then..

I just use a few sheets of thin packing foam, for recording you could just put the head next to the cab so it isn't vibrating.

On the recording, I'll put it next to it.. just live it look nice if it's on top.. so I'll sort something out

i just put it next to the cab. it's not like putting it on top makes me look any more manly anyway so why damage it? JUst got to try and remember not to accidentally boot it.

I stick mine on top of my TC cab and run a bit of gaffer tape through the handles and over the top to keep it secure.

If I get time, this week I might just put a small but of foam between the metal bit that is rattling if I could
