I thought my amp was fixed but it started doing the same thing again. Anyway, I took Ashdown up on their offer to repair the amp and couriered it down to them at a cost of £7(interparcel uninsured). I sent it to them a week gone Friday, it arrived with them the following Monday and was fixed and sent back to me by the Thursday of the same week! And there was no charge for the repair or the courier cost to send it back to me. 😀 I can't fault Ashdown's customer service, and this was on an old amp, not even a brand new one... If you are buying an Ashdown amp then you can rely on these guys to sort you out if anything ever goes wrong. 👍👍👍

Interparcel. It ended up costing me around £7(Not fully insured though but I took a chance).

Good lord! I hope that's a concrete floor beneath the amps!

Definitely worth talking to Ashdown, they've just repaired my Retroglide head for me in record time and it only cost me a nominal courier fee to send it to them.

The offending screws have been drilled out and I've now got access to the amp! 😊

Cheers guys, some things to try there.

Hi guys, I'm trying to get inside my trace elliot amp head but some of the mini Allen screw heads have shredded. I've tried the usual YouTube tip of putting an elastic band inside the screw head but it still doesn't turn. I've also tried WD40 but the bolts aren't going to shift. Has anyone managed to release shredded Allen screws and if so, how did you manage it? Cheers Dave
