I've been bequeathed a 1964 5F1 Champ

My father passed away, and left me his guitar and amp, a 5F1 Champ. It currently doesn't work. I can't decide whether to let it sit in the corner, or fix it. Too soon to make decisions like that, I guess. I will never sell it, so that part doesn't matter. All original, I think. Except for the speake...

Re: Should we make a guitar section?

DIY pet neutering, anyone? Anyone into explosives? Fishing tips? I know we have a pretty diverse membership here. On the Solomon in the middle of Kansas, we used to combine explosives and fishing often enough... Pet neutering and explosives not so much... Pet neutering and fishing brings to mind a ...

Re: Any old geezers using an Optivisor?

I'm waiting for the monocle version, as well, cbass.
Only one eye works, why do I need 2 expensive lenses?
( 3D tv gives me the world's worst headache. quickly...)

I got a big lighted work magnifier from Harbor freight.
Works fine, and keeps fumes/flux splatter out of my face.

Re: Dumble - help needed urgently!

You're lucky you received anything.

Search for Moss and or Brown Note to see how many folks got some parts or nothing for years.

And documentation was misleading and or incomplete.

Best wishes.

Have a pro check the amp before you rely on it.
