A new unopened set of Thomastik John Pearse Folk strings. Designed for classical guitar and intended to give a slightly more steel string sound. £15 posted.

Akai MPD218 pad controller. Owned by me from new and barely used. In original box. £50 posted

Picked this up on here a couple of years ago with an idea in mind, but never ended up using it. It’s been sat in drawer all that time. Condition is fair. It has a few scratches and the box is very tatty, but it’s fully functional. I paid £50 and am hoping to get my money back. Will include postage for that price.

Lazy Bear 4 way pedalboard patchbay. Little chip on the bottom which I did today whilst removing dual lock tape. Turned the air blue, I did. Other than that, it’s in excellent condition. £25 posted.

Red Panda Bit Mixer. 3 mono ins, 1 mono out. Ultra low noise/distortion. Made in USA. Accepts line level as well as instrument level sources. In excellent condition, not a mark on it. With original box. £100 posted.

😂 Yes, sorry about that. Not my finest photographic work.

For those of you with larger pedalboards……. 5 x EBS PG58 - 58cm flat patch cable with gold plated connectors 3 x EBS PG28 - 28cm flat patch cable with gold plated connectors All as good as new, one unused. £45 posted.

It does

Airturn Ped Pro wireless Bluetooth page turner. In excellent condition and full working order. This particular model works perfectly when wearing hard soled shoes. It will work if you’re wearing trainers, but favours an old school Addidas over something more modern and spongy. £40 posted.

Pedaltrain Classic Jr pedalboard. No case/bag. In excellent condition with the exception of the two marks on the front where my power supply was attached. Various bits of dual lock attached to the surface and some cable clips underneath. £40, including postage.

Up for sale, my lovely Larrivee OM-2. It’s in fabulous condition, barely a mark on it. Includes original hard case and certificate. The action is very comfortable, 2mm at the 12th fret on the low E, however the saddle is very low and there is little, if any room left for adjustment. This is reflected in the price. I paid £900 from a dealer, about 2 years ago and it’s in the same condition as it was when I bought it. I’m asking £800. Collection only, East Lancs/Yorks border.

Have box, will post. £45 posted.

I bought this direct from Boomerang. It’s never been gigged, and barely used in the house. More or less like new, boxed, with PSU. I have stuck 4 small squares of 3M dual lock to the bottom. I’ll leave these on, as it’s pricey stuff and if you haven’t tried it, you really should. It’s great stuff. £250 posted, or collect from near Colne, Lancs.

Mapex H600 double braced Hi Hat stand, with spring tension adjuster. Some cosmetic wear to the footplate as pictured, otherwise excellent, fully functional condition. £40. Collect from Colne, Lancs or will post for a fiver.

Meinl rim clamp. Clamps to snare or tom rims and will hold percussion items or microphones. Comes with both long and short rods and mic thread adapter, not normally included with the clamp. £25 + £3 post or collect from near Colne, Lancs.

This nifty little thing clamps to your bass drum rim and holdeth the microphone. £12 posted.

In overall good condition. Some cosmetic wear to the footplate, see pics. Fully functional, and I have replaced the felts. I’m willing to post, but don’t have a box at the moment. £40 collected from near Colne in Lancashire.

Here’s a nice little Harley Benton parlour guitar. A great couch guitar, or for beginners or smaller hands. I’ve been quietly impressed with this thing. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a £200 guitar, but it has a bit of a voice, if you will. A little bit of bass and a little bit of volume, not what I would have expected. I guess the 12th fret neck join helps with this. It’s great fun to play. It’s in excellent condition. I have removed the pick guard as I thought it looked cheap and nasty. The finish has gone glossy where I’ve rubbed the glue off. It was very lightly glued. It’s hard to make out in the pics and hardly seems worth mentioning on an el cheapo guitar. The neck is a very comfortable c shape, 45mm at the nut. Bone nut and saddle. There is adequate meat left on the saddle to take the action down, although it’s reasonably low as it is. Scale length is 24.7” so it’s a shorty. The top is solid Okoume, back and sides are laminated Sapele. It has a Fishman Sonitone pickup (piezo under saddle affair) and Presys active preamp 2-band EQ, phase switch and tuner. Runs off a 9v battery which is integrated into the jack socket. Not the most attractive solution, but beats the hell out of having to reach inside the guitar to change the battery. The Sonitone is Fishman’s cheapest offering, but again I’ve been impressed. I play pretty much exclusively fingerstyle and it doesn’t sound half bad. Of course, digging in harder begins to reveal the dreaded piezo quack. The tuners, I have to say don’t feel great. Although I haven’t tried oiling them. They do hold tune though, which is the main thing. Comes in a cheap and cheerful Thomann gig bag. I’m afraid it’s collection only on this one. I’m near Colne in Lancashire. I do travel round gigging a lot though, so if you’re interested but nowhere near, give me a shout. I may be in your area soon.

I’m not really a drummer, but I dabble. There used to be a fabulous drum shop not far from me called Chas Hoopers. I swear you’ve never seen anything like it. It was in a tiny village high in the moors on the outskirts of Blackburn, Lancashire. Think Edward and Tubbs’ shop from The League of Gentlemen and you’re not far off. Although not a big shop, it was an absolute treasure trove. Chas was a nice enough chap, but a bit tight. There were no bargains to be had. One day, about 25 years ago I went in and he had this pair of second hand Paiste 2002 hi-hats which he wanted about five million pounds for. I was a student at the time. Needless to say I didn’t buy them, but the sound really stuck with me. They were far and away the best hi-hats I’d ever heard. Kind of dry sounding and well suited to the jazz and funk stuff I was into, although the 2002s seem to be marketed as a rock cymbal. I eventually got myself a pair at a more sensible price. Screw you Chas Hooper. I don’t really have time to drum anymore and I could do with releasing the cash Ive got locked up in my various bits of drum gear, so here they are. Made in Switzerland in 1982, to say they have patina would be an understatement. I haven’t cleaned them, although it would be possible to get them looking, not new but pretty darn good. I’ve seen it done. Also, I know that cleaning old cymbals is a no-no in certain drum circles. They have no keyholes or cracks. I will also include a bottle of the elusive Paiste cymbal polish. It would be pointless using it now, but if you were to clean them properly they would need a coat of this stuff to prevent them from tarnishing again rapidly. This has to do with the make-up of the bronze alloy that Paiste use for the 2002s and most of their other cymbals. When you buy a new set, they are coated with this stuff. They’ve stopped selling said polish to Joe Public for some reason and I’ve seen bottles changing hands for ridiculous prices. I think it used to cost about a tenner. Anyway, I’ve got a full bottle and will chuck it in. Im pretty firm on the price. I think a new pair is around £350. Second hand ones going for £200-250, and tarnished ones like these perhaps a bit less. If I wanted another set of hats at any point, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t come close to these for £150. Can be collected from near Colne, Lancs or will post for a fiver. All the best!

I picked this up on eBay less than a year ago for a brief project. It’s now surplus to requirements. It’s in excellent condition, with one exception. The mixer surround is rubber coated and has gone slightly tacky. It attracts dust big time, as you will see in the pics. I was a bit miffed, but not enough to send it back. It does work perfectly and the rest of it is in jolly good nick. Was hoping to recoup my outlay of £150, but given the tacky rubber I’ll say £120. Collect from near Colne, Lancs or I’ll post it for a fiver. 4 Mic/Line Inputs with 48v Phantom power 4 In/4 out USB Audio Interface 2 stereo ins 2 Hi-Z ins 3 band eq + low cut filter XLR Stereo outputs and most importantly…….built in power supply - no wall-wart, hooray!

Height is 170cm or 180cm with the casters. Width is 160cm.

Auralex monitor pads. Slight discolouration from sunlight on the front, but otherwise excellent condition. £10 collected, £15 posted.

Not 100% sure it fits in my car, but I do get around the country quite a bit. Just sayin’😁
