Title: Speed Freak Restoration
Post by: vernimark on December 14, 2011, 01:46:19 AM
Hi all,
I'm just starting speed freak restoration.
is there someone has this cabinet? I need some picture as pedal is mounted in all of its parts. I have all parts but I'm not sure how to mount them.

thank you,
vernimark

Hi All,
I finished to restore my SPEED FREAK sone days ago when the HV
transformer decided to die. Tripler is ok.
Do you know where to find/buy a replacements?
OR
you have a complete monitor PCB for sale?

I want to sow you this picture because I'm so proud to have 3 vectorbeam cabs :)

Oops I missed this topic. :oops:
Congrats on the restoration, that's a tough one!
I have a lot of pics if ever you're still interested but it's probably too late.

It's liquidx's one that was stored in my hallway for "a while".
I lost quite a lot of WAF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wife_acceptance_factor) points because of that one by the way  :D
