Members MrChrisos Posted January 10, 2012 Members Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd give it a whirl myself mate if I weren't so damn busy right now. If you're willing to pay, get in touch with this guy. He's my amp/guitar tech when I need one. Nice bloke, and he'll give you a fair price. He fixes everything from any amp/guitar under the sun, to mixing desks and pedals. Worth at least giving him a ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members THAT4301 Posted January 10, 2012 Members Share Posted January 10, 2012 Have you listened to FM recently? You can still get lots of stations on MW and LW... Turn it into an amp? I didn't know there were any except 5L. But yeah, looking at it, I'd want to turn it into a little amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members theboywho Posted January 11, 2012 Members Share Posted January 11, 2012 I managed to get something similar, but a full blown radiogram with a record deck the other day.It was just dumped outside someones house and I thought the cabinet looked cool, didn't expect it to work. If you check out the vintage radio forum or take it to a tech they should be able to wire you a line in, you could put a portable dab or MP3 player in there, would sound pretty cool.
