 pa> I recently purchased a Peavey Bandit guitar amp from a local kid selling
 pa> it on the internet. The thing was absolutely disgusting and totally reeked
 pa> of pot. The amp was in working order but all the potentiometers needed a
 pa> little love. Very scratchy to put it mildly!  I pulled it all apart and
 pa> gave the case a good cleaning (really totally disinfecting and scrubing it
 pa> with cleaner).  With stinky smell gone, I then hit all the pots with lots
 pa> of 99% isoproply alcohol. Now the thing not only looks like new but sounds
 pa> like it too. I spent some time on the Peavey wiki page and it seems this
 pa> amp was built in the early 1980's  So it seems I have a retro amp now!

 pa> Anyway, very happy with this purchase and life is good with any retro
 pa> hardware!!

That's cool. :)  I like to play music too, and sometimes I think of buying some new gear, but then I worry about spending the money. :)
