Looks lovely. Sadly I cannot get on with the acoustic body - my right arm just doesn't work that way. GLWTS!

I'm a bit puzzled by what you mean by "enough fretless basses". I have never heard of anyone in this unfortunate condition, or anywhere near it. Please explain?

We moved to Horton in Ribblesdale when I was two. Then to Burton in Lonsdale from the age of three to the year I was ten.

The bass aside, I'd be very wary about buying from any trader called "Fair Deal" anything.
I mean, deal is quite a pale wood but this is obviously red...

Are you gigging these?

Completely new to me, never heard of them. Obviously some sort of knockoff. If it was closer to me I might consider going to see it.

I've got one of these; it plays really nicely, sounds good. Definitely punches above its weight.

That is going to make most of the classical repertoire "rather difficult" 🤣
That's one word for it

I tried to play my old and very, very "roadworn" cello a few years ago...
Had to tune it in fourths; I've been ruined by bass guitars, ruined I tell you...

I bought Andy's 335-knockoff. Despite his car woes he did a sterling job of getting it posted, well packed and with good comms. Deal with confidence, he's one of the good guys.
Thanks Andy

Yup, me again... Pickup and some books. As always, Lawrie is one of the good guys. Thanks

I don't really like 'bursts, but that looks great... GLWYS!

Damn. If I was playing fretted fours... Good luck with the sale!

Things come back reasonably quickly, in my experience.
But you need to talk to a doctor and a physio.

Needs gold pickup covers.
Obviously.

Sounds as if it would be nice with the bottom strings of a fiver, BEAD. Out of my range, I'm afraid - GLWTS!

Are you using Firefox? My Firefox has stopped working with Ebay.
Firefox running on Ubuntu Linux, yes. So it's probably not just me then. Thanks.

It's quite possible to string a four-string BEAD (use the bottom four strings from a five-string set).
It might be confusing, so you might want to use something which doesn't feel like your main four-string.

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!
