I've come across a few threads that suggest freezing oil based gear can give an indication as to its legitimacy.
Apparently from what i've read, if you leave your amp in the freezer it will eventually turn cloudly/change colour if it contains real steroids. If its fake and filled with only cooking oil, it wil not freeze.
Has anyone heard of this test or ever used it?
I am freezing some gear now (1 amp of deca (which i know is defo fake) and some karachi sus & deca which i think (and hope lol) is legit.
Will compare the two and post the results....
Fingers crossed!
