GAD (Glue Amp day)
« on: February 10, 2013, 09:26:19 PM »
An odd title I  know.. but I wondered if anyone had ever needed to glue a logo back on to their amp? For my sins I am a teacher and one of my musical outlets involves rehearsing with other similarly tortured individuals once or twice a week after the lovely children have left for the day. I stupidly asked some seemingly brawny 15 year olds to carry my amp (Blackstar soloist) down to the practice room on Friday.. When I arrived the amp had taken a substantial whack that had snapped off the logo on the front. Now, I was not overly fond of this substantial graphic but I have recently been thinking of changing the afforementioned amp so disfiguring it is not a great move. It is nothing more than cosmetic damage as we completed practice + a small gig without problems on Friday, however I was wondering whether or not these things can be glued back on, and if so what should I use? As far I can see the logo was originally attached via litle posts - most of which are still intact so a re-attachment looks possible (and necessary if I intend to sell the the thing) Any ideas on suitable substances?

I modified my Marshall's logo after it fell off to spell my last name with some trusty Gorilla glue. Doubt anyone would check something as small as the condition of the logo on any amp, let alone a Blackstar. Maybe a '68 Plexi, but other than that, nah. Should be fine sticking it back in a maybe gluing it for peace of mind.
