  2. I'm still in. However, it's very, very difficult. I'm currently borrowing a Rob Allen Deep 5 for a gig next month aaaaand I have MASSIVE GAS for one. Lucky me: they are very expensive.

  5. Mooer Volume pedal (active) both in good condition, velcro underneath, can’t find boxes .. £45 (post included) Boss chorus now sold
  6. I've got a lot of time for Yamaha and I've honestly never played a dodgy instrument made by them. I see them as dignified and no-nonsense, seemingly prioritising quality control over other 'sexier' temptations, which I find admirable and classy. I think they prudently recognise that they do their thing extremely well; they've no need to follow in the footsteps of Fender et al, releasing an endless stream of updates, reissues and limited edition finishes. There seems to me a cynicism in that which I dislike, but perhaps that's unfair; it's a model that clearly works for a lot of players! I don't play long scale 4s these days and can't imagine going back now but 5s are a different story... I'd dearly love to own a BB5000a one day!
  7. I’ve just uploaded additional shots of the fret slots on the neck. As you can see the lower side binding has virtually no interference from the fret removal process. The top side wasn’t quite so lucky …..not totally dreadful by any means but the lower side of the neck is where you would fell any disruption to the surface more so that’s good. Hopefully these additional photos help.
  8. Scrub Scrub - Olivia Coleman And "Wonka" Cast
  9. I've always been a bit of a softie, really

  12. Yes it can make it expand temporarily... but I just needed to free it up.
  13. Yesterday
  14. Never thought I'd see 2 of my favourite bands, Level 42 and New Model Army on the same list for anything 😄
  15. I would say that desire is not action - that is to say, the fact that were considering it, does not mean that you would have done so had Mrs Machines not offered. You could have left the shop without the bass. However, only you know whether you planned to buy the bass had she not offered. So, technically, this is an unsolicited gift, and it feels like you should remain in the game. He's gone soft in the head! Parsnip Head by name, @neepheid by nature!
  16. I have had circuit diagrams from Ashdown in the past but as others have said, of late I just call and their service is second to none. You may have got through to the wrong person or I did once ask a question of Dave Green and he sounded a tad scolding when he gave me the obvious(with a little thought) answer. However he had gone above and beyond several times.
  17. I did use them at Open Mic and they were fine. When I say fine, I mean they kept my mics clean without any detriment to the sound.
  18. Thanks for all the responses, much appreciated!
  19. Selling my Darkglass VMT as now surplus to requirements. Slight marks from use. No box but will be packed securely. £100 posted mainland or can be collected from Aylesbury. Tradewise, only looking for a Pork and Pickle smalls
  20. Who did you speak to?
  21. Ah, the joys of owning a digital desk, One mic, two separate channels! Great idea!
  22. Good evening… Got this 2 months ago after selling a few basses…i actually set out to buy a 90’s Sheraton and then bought one only to find out I’d been diddled on reverb and had to claw my money back. I’ve been playing lots more guitar recently and I’ve always wanted a Les Paul. So when this came up locally after the Sheraton incident - I jumped at it. But I find i instantly come up with ideas on my Strats and I find them easier to navigate…I’ve tried different strings, tweaks etc - and I was about to spend £220 on a vibramate Bigsby set up - just to realise I’m trying to make a Les Paul a Strat…and that’s not going to happen. So as dull as it seems. I’m going to be sensible and get some money back in the pot. It’s a Gibson USA Standard, 2011 in honeyburst. Its got a couple of marks on it and belonged to a local Luthier before I got it - he sold it as he only likes “Metal” guitars. It’s light - in 2011 the Standards were weight relieved. So it’s a lightweight Les Paul. It had locking Grover’s on it but they looked crap and actually made restrings a faff; I replaced them with Grover kidney beans - a like for like replacement with no modification or change in quality; it now looks loads better. It’s got a great flamed top - can look quite plain, but when the light hits it right; it looks as good as I’ve seen any Les Paul. I added a pickguard as genuinely it suits it and I don’t think Les Pauls look right without. This was a Gibson part, as was the bracket. Both brand new. I disliked the truss Rod cover saying “standard” - replaced with a plain Gibson one (original included) Put a Gibson amber tip on the switch - original included. These came factory fitted with schaller straplocks - I detest these, but will be included. I replaced with Gotoh oversized ones which were bought brand new. The 2011’s had a Neutrik locking socket - and i debated changing it; but never did. If you feel so inclined - a Gibson jack socket panel and Switchcraft USA jack are included… The case has a scuff on the head end tolex. No neck damage or repairs - a scuff on the headstock and a couple of marks on the edge commensurate with age (15 years). Collection preferred in Manchester. Postage at buyers cost/risk - and must insist you get an insured courier - Overland Express cover guitars and are reasonable. I really don’t need or want anything in trade - if you offer something up and I say no, don’t be offended. If I’ve missed anything, let me know - or ask me. Andy x
  23. Okay, I understand better now. Maybe trying a silicon based "grease" spray would work better as WD-40 is not good for plastic.
  24. I sold two cases to @floFC / Florent – extremely smooth transaction. Recommended!
  25. This isn't the same sort of stickiness. It's a mechanical jamming, not the pladtic degrading - as far as I can tell.
  26. Barry Morris posted some excellent pics of Sunday's gig on Facebook 😎
  27. What's bothering me is the stickyness that should have disappeared with the new versions something like at least 5 years. These are indeed amongst the best stands made, but they had issues...
