    A few dings but looks basically OK. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/354996035717?hash=item52a769a085:g:FL4AAOSwYjxk5kc8

    This is a strange one - at least to me. It looks as if it's probably decent quality, and seems to have had an eight-bolt neck-to-body fixing? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334991575009?hash=item4dff0dc7e1:g:DDEAAOSwfcFksHHW

    That's a cracking colour!

    This to arrive. I'm not religious, but this is glorious. And I love that rhythmic jump.

    I'm still thinking about it. But Talking Heads' 'Heaven' (the Stop Making Sense version) will be one of them.

    Where are you?

    Cobalt flats are worth a look. I don't know if anyone other than EB make them.

    And a silver MIJ SB401: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334743379459?hash=item4df0429e03:g:9O4AAOSwNjRj6CFx

    This looks nice, might be a good buy. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235119099108?hash=item36be30bce4:g:ErMAAOSw4FNkzMsf

    Pentangle, 'Once I Had A Sweetheart'. I prefer some of the less jazzy stuff, but it's still fabulous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRXPslHDVI0

    nice!

    Could collect, if anyone is desperate.

    Nice colour!

    I bought some strings from John. We've dealt before and I'd be very pleased to do so again. Thanks

    Mmm. I wonder if I could get a fretless neck to fit... Sadly, the one which is easily to hand wouldn't fit. Oh well

    I bought strings from Gareth. As always, it was a near-perfect transaction. I look forward to the next time Thanks Gareth!

    At least they've heard of cellos...

    You'd be better off advertising this in the Amps and Cabs for Sale section of the Marketplace.

    Does it sound nice? (I know that's subjective and I'm not expecting miracles...)

    Silicone strings for the Ashbory were so temperamental as to be useless. Twice in a month I put mine away, came back next day and a string had snapped. The Pahoehoes were a huge step forward. It's got Thunderguts on it at the moment but I haven't played it for over a year. When I do play it I treat it as a baby upright or a mini cello, hung vertically round my neck with the headstock next to my left ear. I find this a lot easier than trying to play it like a uke, though I started as a cello player, so that might be part of it. (To hang it like this, remove the upper strap button - very uncomfortable otherwise - and tie the strap on behind the nut.)

    Search generally is much less useful than it used to be. Mostly nowadays it works as a marketing tool, which is not helpful at all. (Whether that is the problem with Amazon search I don't know, but I'm guessing they buy their search function in from somewhere.)

    No fivers?

    You can't even cannibalise the neck off it...

    Rob gave away two 3D printer mats. They will go to a good home. A nice guy and his concern that things would go as intended was plain. Thank you.

    Hi. Does it eat batteries? That was a problem with some of the Cirrus (including my four-string, till I fixed it).
