  1. Nice to see one that's not black! These have nice tone; to me they sound almost like an electric guitar stepped down an octave, very rich but not very woody. Caution needed when changing strings though - it's easy to strip the thread in the head, because it's a steel screw into the aluminium...
  2. I bought a power supply from Andy. Quick, uncomplicated transaction, and I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks Andy!
  3. I bought Carl's Zoom pedal; the second time we've traded. All is well and I'll happily trade with him again. Thanks Carl!
  4. The seller ribbetingfrog is probably a member here. Certainly someone based in Manchester area has that BC username.
  5. I assume the "graphite" nut is made of powdered graphite in some matrix - some sort of epoxy resin perhaps? If that's right, then the matrix might deteriorate with age.
  6. I'm still not convinced by the pictures, personally. I think that might be the last time I consider buying from eBay.
  7. I have a funny feeling this is an AI-generated picture. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126579639544?itmmeta=01J2YXRVF2MY0C5AYMDGX8TH28&hash=item1d78bc04f8:g:6oIAAOSwgl9mlp1S I suspect Ebay's whole business model will collapse as soon as scammers work out how to do this properly.

    I bought a couple of pedals from Tim. Prompt, good packaging, all as advertised. I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks Tim
  9. I bought some strings from Daniel. All went well and I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks Daniel
  10. Damn it,. I keep forgetting to change the title... Now I'll have to leave it. Bah, humbug.
  11. I had one of these, and I regret getting rid of it. And Phil is a fine musician and a nice guy.
  12. Mm. Suspicious, for sure. Why wouldn't you sell it for the higher price?
  13. I have one which was reboarded without frets, by its then owner philw of this parish. It's going nowhere. You can hear it here (Phil playing):
  14. The blue ones are much prettier IMO
  15. No clue about this one. Anyone know? There are several ads, so this may not be "used" or "vintage". https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/405074815505?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20231107084023%26meid%3D098e094b7afc4ba2872ec5e301e6e2b4%26pid%3D101875%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D176451606755%26itm%3D405074815505%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D4429486%26algv%3DSimplAMLv11WebTrimmedV3MskuWithLambda85KnnRecallV1V2V4ItemNrtInQueryAndCassiniVisualRankerAndBertRecallWithVMEV3EmbeddedAuctionsCPCAutoWithCassiniEmbRecallManual%26brand%3DVintage&_trksid=p4429486.c101875.m1851&itmprp=cksum%3A405074815505098e094b7afc4ba2872ec5e301e6e2b4|enc%3AAQAJAAABgP9d%2BMZSXlztIfYFu3kI%2B7ft0VcQix7rTrUVdiJwc2upzwLfM%2B2UEqu0ZqdXqu2qWe6up6s9MSEY%2BWikIwEh4xLkizL%2BG%2Fyhg6cdW4xfkbb75erVQBYYISNxGN1au%2BE0eJ778JYYSAyLJRupNiZky3B2UHpMsaEp7JRgW9fuueOszPlG9eCPE4mSzJx4EejjZE0v1xx3s4HgKujjhEB3s6kdrBGms27nBOE8uaX7mmYUC%2BfE8qUxFWj8zQj3krJzad%2BvgGelTuGD25wKpAxqtEQxdO0D4K%2BE38kKj6Sqs5xZXa%2Fu7B3JOKVZiY9u%2BeAkbTcJTKOR7BbwoqEUFj9BOEMa71bO0KQZ103kwpRm3D4RV7YfIjwUQnT82sUM456P9xWTCtbJDqyqsNazXjgTBOFHu287hyWF4WsK9CeFw4aVtcAyxVS5qQ0taXmJFcNq5SVl78vd5KKhH1LJwUxG3HeE0oPIzLYRUBvsVt3s0fMM8Y6MOmWbfYQO08Bck95%2BRg%3D%3D|ampid%3APL_CLK|clp%3A4429486&itmmeta=01J229A9YZXBDKCR68G1FG5TZX
  16. I bought strings and two nuts from Gareth. This is probably the sixth time we've traded, and he remains as he always has been - one of the good guys. Thanks Gareth!
  17. Yamaha BEX 4, if you can find one to fit your budget. AndyTravis has one for sale at the moment; whether he'd ship to Denmark I don't know, but it's worth asking.
  18. "The 6-string configuration makes for a comfortable fit ..." There is no way I'd deal with this idiot.
  19. Sold, apparently for £500.
  20. I like that a lot. Sadly, I have no use for it, and I find acoustics uncomfortable to play. GLWYS!
  21. ... if only because of the colour - which I quite like. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266846602607?itmmeta=01HZPWVT5C3Y8R5W7A7CCW4GP2&hash=item3e214c056f:g:b5QAAOSwkM5mYPg8
  22. Good idea. I think that's probably the first thing to try. Thank you.
