[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8661462, member: 614752"] You didn't mention one with burnt tinsels. Might just be able to perform some minor surgery and replace that for few bucks worth of tinsel and some glue. Well worth trying before you scrap it entirely! In fact you can try to pry up the dustcap and see what kind of glue is in the triple joint. If you can dissolve some (try acetone, a little at a time rub with the corner of a rag or similar) or burn it away with a soldering iron enough to expose 1/8 inch of the coil lead I've got some nice chunky tinsel up here we could use to get that back in action. If you can get it soft with solvent or heat and gently scrape with an exacto knife or tip of a utility knife you might could reveal enough of the coil lead to make it work too. OR might even be able to get into it on the former between the cone and spiders depending how much room you have to get in there and how tight those are spaced. [/QUOTE]
