[QUOTE="XaznKewLguyX, post: 5094141, member: 565633"] So I've been looking for an amp to power my TB 6.5's and i stumbled off a craigslist ad on a Boston Acoustic amp and sub for $80, and i ask him for the make and model of the amp and how much for the amp alone. He replies its a GT-22 for $30, so i hurry and call him and pick this sucker right up. This idiot got a spade connector stuck inside the remote and i had the hardest time takign it out. It looked like he already tried with pliers and stuff cause the jacket of the connector was eaten away. I open up the amp to see if i can get around to it and theres a black shroud taht is stuck because of the connector so I take a flathead and push as hard as i can and i guess my other hand was right in front of it. (Yes, stupid of me). So i get the sucker out and i'm so dam happy cause i've been working at it for like 30 minutes. My GF goes OMFG and i look at my hand and its gushing out blood. and i'm like [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif[/IMG]:eek:[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif[/IMG] Anyways, i finally got it out and now its too late to even try it.
