    Screw broke off installing new bridge, help!

    Hey everybody. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the help! I am simply too terrified to operate on this bass so I ended up taking in into this shop: Specimen Products / The Chicago School of Guitar Making He quoted 1 to 2 hours to repair at $60 an hour. I'm also having him build me a...

    Screw broke off installing new bridge, help!

    Thanks guys. I think this is out of my league. I'm going to take it in for repair. Any recommendations in Chicago?

    Screw broke off installing new bridge, help!

    I just tried digging around the screw a little bit but got nervous. Here's a picture of what I'm working with. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/84/photo4coq.jpg http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/5/photo5qs.jpg

    Screw broke off installing new bridge, help!

    Hey guys. So I was doing what I thought would be a straightforward install of a new Full Contact Hardware Black Bridge on my '75 Ibanez Black Eagle. The included screws were a little bit longer but I didn't think I'd need to, nor did I want to have to drill the screw holes any deeper...

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    It wasn't. The speaker warranty is 1yr and the cab was 18 months old, plus purchased 2nd hand. If I bought it from a store I maybe could have fought a little harder but all in all it turned out ok. Just that Denise from Eden is, and this is putting it nicely, a ****** person. The almost ruined...

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    To be full circle and fair to Eden, I eventually was helped by a different customer service rep that took care of everything the way one would expect. Details are in the thread linked above. So the lesson is if you aren't getting the service you think you deserve, ask to speak to someone else...

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    Wow what a bad story. They are now willing to sell me the part (yesterday they wouldn't) but at a price of $225. Oh and she was thrilled to mention it was out of stock until November and that was an estimated date. Here is my thread at Eden: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] I have a...

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    I'm wondering if I could use the stock xst's in this box. I will never move the box, at least not anytime soon and the non-neo's are what built the brand. I find it really strange they discontinued them so soon. Perhaps because it was confusing to have identical cabs with different woofers.

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    Just found out I'm actually dealing with a D210XSTN (the neo). I didn't even realize there was a NEO version of this cab. Not even sure what the differences would be between the standard and NEO versions are, aside of weight. The seller actually put NEO on the cabinet description on Ebay but I...

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    Thanks. I will give them a try. I'm in IL so I'll probably have to pay tax plus shipping. It might make sense just to have the repair shop order them and see if they'll skip the $60 "labor" to install them. Damn I feel like we should have a beer together to commemorate the pain of trusting...

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    You bought directly from Eden or from one of their service shops? I was told they do not sell direct. I'd like to order one from Indiana or Michigan to avoid the 10% Chicago Sales Tax (yes that right 10%). =( Did you consider getting them re-coned?

    Eden D210XST Needs Beano

    Hello Friend. In the same boat. EBay bought 210XST with two blown woofers. Did you say you got the original XST woofers replaced or what did you replace them with? The woofers are $150 each and you have to order them from a repair shop. They will not sell direct. If anyone can recommend a...
