Big Bass Man Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Hi Everyone I've just bought one of these excellent Gallien Krueger RB700/115 Mark 2 combos over the weekend (second hand). The wheels seems to be splitting apart when I'm using the handle (I knew about this before I bought it BTW!) so has anyone had this problem and do you have any recommendations of parts etc? Will it be easy for me to repair or will I need help? Cheers in advance Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Its an issue I had with my RB700 combo. GK will replace the wheels but won't guarantee the same thing won't happen again. I think someone made a booboo when it came to the rubber vulcanisation of those wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
