My trusty old amp. It served me well for somewhere in the region of twenty years. It's pretty worn out now. The volume pot is crackly / intermittent and the switches are all pretty knackered. I was considering what to do with it. No doubt it is a classic piece of '80's hifi gear and has a little sentimental value but is of little practical use in it's current state of repair. Bin it? Have it repaired? Punt it on eBay? I haven't decided yet.

edit: It went to the recycling centre. Made a good noise when I launched it into a skip.
