Hi,

My Empeg stopped working a couple of years ago - I seem to recall that the IDE connector had started to come away from the board again...

In any case, I intended fixing it, but it's been sat in the garage all this time. A very damp, stinky garage. Maybe it'll never work again... And there's a tuner with it too. I'm not proud of myself, okay

It's free to anyone who wants it.

I'm based in Wales and currently work north of Birmingham so could deliver to anyone in that part of the UK.

If the HDD is still in one piece and you manage to get the player working, I'd really like a copy of all the music on the drive before you wipe it please ...

Cheers,

AJ.

P.S. I'll add the serial number when I get home at the weekend.

Great deal for UK folks -- the tuner alone is worth more than 50 quid, and the empeg sounds quite (easily) fixable (worth perhaps 60 quid as is, or more than double that fixed).

Cheers

Note that I would love both items, and can happily reimburse shipping (+ a bit extra) to Canada.

Cheers

Mark, maybe get them to me first and I can take photos so you can judge whether salvage is possible?

dap, I'm based in Reading but these guys: http://www.interparcel.com
will pickup from you next day and once it's with me I can make sure it (eventually) gets to mark for spares/repair.

(I can also probably get the drive out and get your music off)

send me an email at david at dgreaves.com, include your phone number if you like and we'll chat to arrange shipping.

Cheers
David

I'm also more than happy to look after forward shipping it to Mark.

I don't know if this is more appealing to you AJ but I'll be atttending a show at Catton Hall Country Park, Nr. Lichfield (just north of Birmingham, right?) this weekend from midday Friday 1st Aug until Sunday 3rd Aug.
Alternatively, I'm in S. Wales at Margam Park Nr. Port Talbot from Friday 15th Aug to sunday 17th Aug.

I'll have the family in tow so my flexibility will be somewhat limited both weekends, I just want to give you some (potentially) more convenient options for passing it on.

is this great offer gone?

I've sent 2 PMs including phone numbers and heard no reply. It's holiday season so maybe dap2 is away somewhere.

I haven't had any contact either.

FWIW, our Port Talbot (S.Wales) plans have almost certainly changed. We should be leaving a day later (Friday 15th Aug to Monday 18th Aug).
