Removing drum pads from RB2 EL

[werewulf94]

I have been having problems with removing drum pads from the EL RB2, for the Goodwood drum pads.

Just in case, I have gotten the pads off, but I can't seem to remove the connector from the drum shell. I put a little rubbing alcohol on the connector at the top of the drum shell, put when I pull on the connector, it feels as if the entire connector, is going to come off, not just the part that goes from the pad.

Heres 2 pictures:

Try a little more rubbing alcohol. Sometimes there's an excessive amount of rubber cement holding those connectors on and it takes quite a bit of finagling to get them out.

Just keep working at it, they'll come out eventually.
