Don't let that longhorn get loose!


I know, it's already peeled off a bit but I don't know what, if anything, would be safe to use to glue it down better.


So yeah, that thing seems to be peeling off faster than I would like. Does anyone have any recommendations for glue that might be safe to use?

eltuce- I only just saw this thread. I have a GA70 also, and it's one of my favorite amps. It's seriously bright though... it makes an ES-335 sound like a tele! I love it. Cool that you have one too.

Eltuce - I would check with a shoe repair shop to see what kind of glue they use for leather repairs and half-soles - seems like that might work.

Yep, it's super bright and brings out all the high end. I'm generally a single coil guy but I love the humbuckers through this puppy. Good tip on the glue thing, makes sense, thanks!

I have several of the "newer" Gibson Goldtone and Super Goldtone amps, Killer tones....

Way cool! If it's anything like the GA-20, "The TONE" is in the Mic input
