The Freecycle gods have smiled on me today
I picked up a rather unlovely and desperately unloved pair of Celestion DL6. They had been in this guy's loft and were in a right state. Very dusty, covered in spider pooh and looked like they were ready for the skip. Fortunately they had their grilles on. Oh well, nothing ventured, etc. so I brought them home.
First, do they play. Well sort of. The surround of one was hanging off the basket so I glued it back on. The other looks OK. Now they play! Not bad at all
Four hours of scraping, scrubbing and polishing later and they are now unrecognisable from their former state. They have come up beautifully. Just waiting for the grilles to dry out before I put them back on.
They sound bloody lovely
