ardi100 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 My basterd drummer's hihat stand managed to penetrate the grill of my cabinet and punch a small hole in the outside edge of the cone. There is probably some cctv footage of me quietly weeping after discovering this while unloading the car, however, it made no appreciable difference to the sound straight away, but I imagine it will. I've had one suggestion to patch it with epoxy resin and I've contacted EBS who put me in touch with their distributor (in Brighton). I'm wondering whether to repair the hole, recone the speaker or replace it and how much it could be. Also, does anyone know of a suitable place to do this in London (preferably SE)? Oh yeah, the cab is an EBS 300 15". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass_ferret Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 The Gallery are EBS dealers in London but it would probably be easier to go to Brighton than The Gallery from SE London! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderthumbs Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Get in touch with Bernie Goodfellow at GB Guitars (Brighton). I made a round trip from Manchester to Brighton in a day to buy my new cabs from him, and spent hours with him. Well worth the 600 mile drive. Great bloke and will give you sound advice.

No fear of me coming home with any 'extra' bass - might just about be able to afford the fuel to get there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
