jwill Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 I have purchased a pre owned 302 ( from this site) and had it sent to SD for a going over and it has been flawless since 2011, I purchased a new 633 in 2014 and it has been flawless, but I wonder if I should send home for a look through? What are others here doing in that regard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Blankenship Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 If the pots, switches, and connectors don't have issues or appear worn or loose, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_tatooles Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Some customers send gear in after a project for what I refer to as a "shave and haircut". This may be important if the gear was used for a seven week shoot on a windy, volcanic beach and the pots feel like crap and there is sand pouring out of the bag (happens more often than you can imagine). If the gear is well maintained and has a nice life, +1 on John and Larry's comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwill Posted October 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Thank you gentleman for putting it in perspective! Plus side for 125$ flat fee SD will provide a loaner and I can, upon receiving loaner , send mixer in for repair!! No need for a shave and haircut here yet!!
