OK ! I'm trying to make a how to. Be indulgent English is not my native language.
First of all, if your AX3000G is under guarantee don't do it. So if you decide to do it, be careful i am
not responsible for damages.
The tools.
A pair of hands.
1 Screwdriver (Philips)
1 box spanner 11mm (I'm not sure of translation, then maybe nut dimensions are in inch)
1 table
1 settee or a soft surface like a pillow (this is for don't break knobs and selectors)
1 beer
1 cd
The two last tools can be easily adapt to your preferences. ;-)
Step 1
Open the beer then keep it in another place of you ax3000g. Put the CD and go.
Put all selectors to 0 position (Drive/amp on tube od) It's just for easy reassembly.
Step 2
Turn the beast upside down on a soft surface. Remove 9 screws.

Step 3
We put back AX3000g upside up.
Then with a lot of caution pull knobs and selectors up.
Step 4
Now you can use your box spanner to remove selectors nuts.Have you noticed Drive/Amp selector have no nut, and is not like other ? That because it's a no end
selector.
Step 5
Remove the rear plastics nuts with your hand (no box spanner) and the 2 screws. See below.
