    Just had a quick read through, nice write-up! lots of work and photos there.
    Laughed at the bit about getting the amp down from the seller's apartment B)

    Sounds like your investment to refresh your 2200 was worth the time and effort, and that you learned a lot in the process.

    How long did that project take you?
    I disabled signatures.

    Hi,
    It took me about a week, but in order to not make any mistakes, I spend one to one hour and a half every day, a very important tip, take a lot of pictures from different angles before continue from one step to the next.
