need help repairing amplifier/welding** PICS

[goodstuff 10+ year member]

Um sorry but most of the posters in this thread are correct.

1. You need to learn on something like connecting a couple pieces of wire before you attempt something like this.

2. That amp is likley ****ed up in numerous other ways that will not be fixed by just globbing solder all over the input terminals.

3. You melted the shit out of whatever that component next to the terminals is.

4. If you look close it looks like you accidently connected the terminals with solder. if you think it had problems before try plugging it in like that.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rage.gif.0ad8a6e5565b5fddce406566fdd05149.gif toast.

Reheat your terminals, **** up the solder, send it in for repair and deny all knowledge. Problem solved! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fro.gif.c695f1f814b01c4ad99fe7f8cccadd29.gif

What do you guys do to clean the solder residue from the tip of your iron?

I take a couple paper towels and wet them, then kind of ring them out till they are just moist and wipe the tip on that.
