So far so good...after the cleaning it sounded GREAT....after the Bearing replacement....it sounded a ZILLION TIMES BETTER than just cleaning alone.
I have heard clones in need of repair, and clones that have had repair(Cleaning) done, and yes indeed it is better than non cleaned ones...but wait till you replace that bearing. Anyway....If you can do it yourself cool...But let me tell ya...Chris is thourough quick and good at this.
I'll let him chime in on his own work!
