They sony studios that had the head piece break, so I had to re-connected them with coat hanger wire and duct-tape. 
What have you ghetto rigged recently?

And I almost did that with mine but my mom tossed them...

At my school concert last Thursday, the amp was fuzzing massively. I traced the problem down to a loose input jack, and used a complex lattice of sellotape to keep the lead held in place.
That's all I can think of for the moment.

| | | I've ghetto rigged a number of things in my time, but few were quite as ghetto or as rigged as the legendary Funk Masheen. I have an old 15 watt combo amp that I haven't used in a very long time, so some friends and I decided for some reason last summer that it would be a good idea to entirely gut it and put it in a new enclosure. Here is the result. 
(The speaker hole is supposed to be a bison.)
