Hi, has anyone opened up a Bad Horsie 2? I'm having trouble removing the PCB. (Don't laugh.)

I've removed the four nuts holding the PCB in place. I've removed the nuts on the pots. And I've removed the nuts on the jacks. I can start to lift the bottom half of the board out, but the top half won't budge. I don't see what could be holding it in place. Is there hot glue on the underside of the board or something?

Thanks.

Ok, it turns out that the jacks are holding the PCB in place. I wasn't familiar with the Marshall style jacks and didn't know what was going on. :icon_redface:

Still, it took a lot of force to get it out. I was worried I'd break something.

Yeah, once i had a similar problem with one too, it was stuck on the four center screws.
