GreeneKing Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 It'd be easier for me to leave one DB112 (covered) in my van for band practice. I don't as I worry about the paper cones becoming soft with damp and corrosion in the frame. What do you reckon. I live in the cold and very damp Lake District.

gary mac Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I know it's tempting to save on lugging stuff about, but I think it's a bad plan Peter. I've seen what happens to stuff in my shed, even when well wrapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreeneKing Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Thank you guys it's as I thought and I'll bring em in. Not many thieves where I live though, unless you count the chickens, cows or sheep Chicken's 'll chase you round the yard for a bread scrap.

witterth Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Every time Ive left gear to the "elements" be it shed,cold van,or whatever its ALLWAYS gone wrong in the long term. Sorry, but the news is allways bad on this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I must've been lucky then - there have ben times when I couldn't be bothered to carry my gear the 5 feet into the house after a gig. This has been many times over the year so I've been lucky not to have anything damaged. Perhaps the differerence being that I have brought the stuff in and its sat in the house for the best part of a week so any moisture that may have got into it has evaporated - leaving the gear in a cold van and then transferring it into a warm gig without it sitting for a few hours will probably cause a lot of damage.
