Hey guys

One of my small stones died :evil: , it's the 70's version:

I've had it for a year, but I haven't used it for a while now.
So today when I turned it on it wasn't working properly, no phase whatsoever.

Anybody encounter something like this before and know how to fix it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

I have also had that problem with one of my old ones. It fixed itself in a strange way.
Electro Harmonix boxes sound so darn good but they have no construction quality.

Makes sense if you bought them for 3€, but if you bought them for 60€ each, this is crazy IMHO, unless some are moded ;)

I can't tolerate this language. It seems that at least one moderator has ignored this message. Please edit it next time, Nico!

True but recently I got 2 others. One MkII and one Sovtek Phaser. And since when is saying Jezus Christ forbidden GeeJee. It's the last thing I would say is offensive.
