Manual for Epi Blues Custom 30
Hello,
Having sold guitars for many years, I can tell you that Epiphone uses a standard "care and maintenance" manual for the majority of their guitars, placing them with types rather than models of their guitars. I don't sell guitars anymore, but recently purchased an Ibanez Artist, and they do the very same thing. The manual I received with this $1,200.00 guitar has on the front "Instruction Manual for Electric guitars" and is not model-specific. If you would like, I can assist you with any aspect of your guitars care and maintenance. You can receive a generalised manual directly from Epiphone for about $12.00 (but sometimes free if you've purchased recently and one was not included) or you additionally may find one on eBay or similar sites.
Thanks for using FixYa.

1. Clean the two parts with BRASSO.
2. Lubricate the two surfaces with cork grease.

4. You may need to take the instrument in to a music shop and have the neck "brazed" (like welding or soldering).

The most likely case is that one of the main output transistors (if which there are many) is shorted. When the protect circuit senses DC on the final output, it will not allow the output relay to come on to protect the speakers from raw DC. With the power removed, you can check between each outputs Emitter and Collector and you will probably find close to zero ohms. From that point you need to unsolder each of the pins of the bad channel until you find the shorted device(s) and replace them.

No or very little sound from Fender passport
Depending on the model, there are four around that date, it could be the insert jacks are tarnished reducing the signal flow between the pre amp stage and digital power amplifier. It could be the power amplifier has failed. It could even be customer error in wiring.
This assumes there is the correct level of signal entering the input sockets of course.

Breaking Roland RD 600 hammers
The Roland RD-600 is a digital piano, and its hammer action mechanism is designed to simulate the feel of an acoustic piano. The hammers in digital pianos like the RD-600 are typically made of materials like plastic or a combination of materials to replicate the weighted feel of acoustic piano keys.
The breaking of hammers in a digital piano is not a common issue, and it's not typically related to the age of the instrument alone. Several factors could contribute to the breakage of hammers, and it's essential to consider the following possibilities:
- Excessive Force: If the keys are played with excessive force or if there's any physical damage to the instrument, it could lead to the breakage of hammers.
- Material Quality: The quality of materials used in the construction of the hammers can impact their durability. If the hammers are made from subpar materials, they may be more prone to breaking.
- Manufacturing Defects: In some cases, there could be manufacturing defects that make the hammers more susceptible to breakage.
- Maintenance: Lack of proper maintenance, such as cleaning and regular inspection, may contribute to the wear and tear of components, including hammers.
If you've observed a pattern of hammers breaking with regularity, it might be worth investigating the specific cause. If it's due to excessive force or physical damage, adjusting playing habits and taking care during transport can help mitigate the issue.
As for whether it's worth purchasing new hammers from Roland, it depends on the extent of the damage and the overall condition of the instrument. If the RD-600 is in good condition otherwise and you enjoy playing it, replacing the hammers could be a reasonable option. However, you may want to assess the cost of replacement hammers compared to the overall value of the instrument, factoring in the cost of a used RD-600 and any potential future maintenance needs.
