Cracking!  Thanks

Brought the Diagram Brothers to mind, much missed.

I suppose you could use it for a double bass bow...

I bought straps and leads from Kev.  Very quick, well packed, good communications.  I'd be pleased to deal with him again.  Thanks Kev

Complete with an invisible amplifier. And yet 5 people have added it to their watchlist. Allegedly.

Possibly for comedy value?

Pretty!  GLWYS.

I've got one of these, which has some cosmetic issues (someone's stripped it, badly, and  undercoated it in white without bothering to tidy up the scratches first).  But it sounds fabulous

Worth editing the title to include the word "fretless".

I bought a couple of bridges from David.  Very quick delivery, good packaging, good comms.  I'd be pleased to deal with him again.  Thanks David!

I like the subtle road-wear.  I'm actually quite tempted, though I definitely don't "need" it.

I didn't even get on to the fact that it looks like I've bundled Mr Blobby away in the spare room

It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it.

OK for using an LLM to give you the advert text, but surely you'd proofread it first wouldn't you?

You'd think.  But that's the whole problem with LLMs...  they tell you what you want to hear, so why proofread their output?   People think they are search engines, and they absolutely are not.

Hi,

Is this still available?

If it isn't, I have one which is.  Slightly different version, IIRC.

Hi.  Any of the BBOT 5ers left?

Pretty

Typo - both 116cm.

Yoour joke apart, I believe that Fair Deal Music are an established shop in Birmingham, with decent reviews.

Fair enough.  A name pre-dating the Internet, I've no doubt.

Much though I'd love it, I'd need a bigger house...  GLWTS!

Thanks, it’s a bit of a bargain ain’t it , has to go though!

I've got one already, otherwise...  so, free bump.  GLWTS!

I'm really surprised nobody's snapped this up.

£120, and they want the car's registration...

@HeadlessBassist might be interesting.

For some reason I like sunburst much better on non-Fender(-style) instruments.  To the extent that I'm tempted by this.

Hmm.

I bought strings from Joel, the second time we've traded.  All went well - good comms, prompt delivery.  I'd be happy to trade with him again.  Thanks Joel!
