  1. I bought an FX pedal from Stew, very helpful guy and really went out of his way to help things go smoothly..
    Cheers

  2. Audio-Technica ATM63HE microphone which has been sat in a case for a while now and needs to go. It's in good condition. Some reviews say it probably has better performance than an SM58. Here's the spec.. https://www.audio-technica.com/en-us/atm63he Buy this mic and get a free Samson S2 mic included... Collection preferred from Hampshire, but I could deliver if local.
  3. Hi, no I've only used it with electric and acoustic guitar. It's very easy to use, I'm a bit of a numpty with music technology so if I can use it, anyone can. You can download their app, choose the song or style for you and off you go. You can of course select everything manually and build your own patch. Really easy to use live, I would switch from Strat to acoustic easily, just using the foot switch to change patches. I'm pretty sure someone here will come along soon to help with bass specific questions.
  4. This instrument is in superb condition, it's always been kept in its case when not used. It's all mahogany with Aquila strings and being a tenor it's much easier to play than a concert as it has decent sized frets. It plays really well and has a sweet sound. I've tried to show as much as I can in the photos. It comes with it's original well padded case. There's a little bit of information on YouTube etc. I can deliver locally, meet you half way or you are welcome to come and try it out. I really don't want to get involved in postage, but will if necessary. Graham
  5. Selling my Firehawk FX unit. It's in superb condition and I really can't find any blemishes at all. It works exactly as it should and includes the power supply. I'll also include the printed Pilot's Guide. I've loved using it but now playing more acoustic and I have all the toys I need on my mixer. Collection preferred but willing to drive a reasonable distance. Graham I advertised here a while ago, but got no interest so hopeful that it will go this time...!
  6. Thanks Mr Edge. I love the Chuwi tablet when it works. Unfortunately, it's just not reliable enough to use for live work. With virtually no gigs for nigh on 2 years, it's all taken a back seat. So still no further forward the situation, but I'm hoping that I'll get more focussed once I start gigging regularly. I'd love a large screen iPad, but can't see me affording one anytime this side of a lottery win...
  7. I had this guitar made for me in Vietnam around 20 years ago. It has solid maple back and sides (with a slight flame) and a solid spruce top. Neck is maple with a rosewood fingerboard and ebony bridge pins. Nut and saddle are bone. I can't find any marks on the guitar but some of the photos reflect some light that appear as marks. The guitar was hand-made by one guy, although the gloss finish was completed by his cousin. It has a fitted passive Dean Markley Tahoe XM soundhole pickup. The sound has matured as only a guitar made from solid wood can. I'm happy for you to visit and try the guitar, but you'd need to bring an amp if you wanted to test the pickup. I'd also be willing to travel a reasonable distance it it helps. Cash on collection please.
  8. This guitar is not what it seems on first sight. Although it's a budget guitar, the electrics have been swapped for some fantastic pick ups and circuitry magic from Ironstone Pickups in the UK. I bought the guitar with the sole intention of fitting the David Gilmour pickups. The guitar itself plays well enough but the added features make for some brilliant possibilities. Here's a link to the magic... https://ironstone-guitar-pickups.co.uk/product/gilmour-scratchplate-pickguard/#reviews The back of the guitar had been polished industrially by its previous owner and I've done my best to restore it but the front has a great sunburst finish. There are a few dings that I've tried to show in the photos. It has a high action because that's how I like it but that could easily be brought down to your preference. It comes with a Ritter padded case. You're welcome to try it out but you'd need to bring an amp. Coffee provided to help you become Comfortably Numb... Cash on collection, but I'd be happy to travel a reasonable distance if it helps.
  9. This guitar is a genuinely hand-made instrument. The story behind it is that I was living in Vietnam a few years ago and was minus my guitar. I found a luthier who could make one to my specifications and was genuinely stunned by the quality of workmanship and sound. I then went rather silly and designed and bought several fantastic guitars from him as they were extremely cheap compared with the ones I could get made in the UK or USA. Just one guy made the whole guitar, the only thing he didn't do was provide the finish which in this case is matt. This particular guitar was lent to a top British blues guitarist for a tour. He decided that he preferred the guitars he already owned, so it came back to me and I used it for several years. I had fitted a Takamine CT4B-II Active Preamp with a Fishman under saddle pick-up for him. It has all solid mahogany back and sides with a solid spruce top, maple neck with rosewood fingerboard. The bridge and pins are ebony with a bone nut and saddle. It is now nearly 20 years old, so the wood has matured nicely. The inlays are Abalone, not Mother of Pearl and the machine heads are Grover. Many professional players played my guitars and the overwhelming opinion was that they sounded as good or better than instruments with famous names on the headstock. My advice is to listen with your ears, rather than your eyes. I still gig three of these guitars in various guises today. Now, the sad news. The neck has developed a slight twist. For me it's still very playable, but it's only fair to point this out before you consider buying. A luthier may well be able to correct it, I've not made any enquiries. I've tried to show this in the photos. There is a slight marking on the back where I've played it. This is just superficial and in the photos, I seemed to have made it look worse than it really is. I sold several similar guitars for £699, without the electrics. It's now time to part company and I'd like to think the next owner will own it for a similar amount of time. I'm happy for you to come and try it, but you'd need to bring an amp to check out the electrics. I'd be willing to travel a reasonable distance if it helps and it will have to be cash on collection. I can provide an independent review of a similar guitar if you're seriously interested in buying.
  10. What's not to like about this guitar..? Perfect for posing at home in front of the kids to confirm what they already know about you. Or just pull it out from behind the amp at your next gig for instant Glam Rock adulation. It's in excellent condition and sounds surprisingly good through an amp. I think it's 3/4 size but the frets are easily big enough to handle my sausage fingers. Comes with a soft case and I even found a pitch pipe inside that I didn't know I had. Talk nicely and it's included in the price. Cash on collection please. Go on, you know you want to....
  11. This is a great Uke that sounds superb acoustically with the advantage of being able to plug it into the PA at your next O2 gig. It's in excellent condition with no marks or dings and comes in a hard case. The case has a couple of issues with seams parting and the handle is missing but it's easy to use a shoulder strap onto the existing fixings, which will keep your roadie happy. When used acoustically, the extra strings really help with volume and add a '12 string guitar' sound to the mix. When plugged into an electric thingy, it's remarkably feedback resistant. Not much else to add really, come and try it out. I'm based in Hampshire, but will travel a reasonable distance to meet you if that helps. Cash on collection please.
  12. I bought this Laka by Vintage Ukulele about 4-5 years ago but sadly I haven't used it as much as I thought I would. Sound familiar..? It has an active PU, using a 9V battery fitted into the back of body. It has nylon strings so it gives a pretty good representation of a ukulele sound when amplified. There are other electric ukes out there that have steel strings and PU's similar to those used in guitars. Horses for courses. I used it in my uke band and it always gave a great sound through a PA. It is in almost perfect condition, the only blemish is a small dink on the rear which I've shown in the photos. It comes with a quality padded case and a few spare strings. I know you're hovering over the 'Buy Now' button so to help swing your decision, I'll include a rather smart red strap. See, didn't that make things easier...? Collection only, I'm Hampshire based but would be prepared to travel a few miles to meet you. Cash on collection please. Great for practising your Angus Young licks...
  13. Hi Patrick and thanks for your interest. I can't send it using the PO as they won't insure musical instruments. It would be best if you can arrange a courier to collect from here. I can take Paypal. Cheers
  14. Thanks for the quick reply Ped. And Two House Points for your help..!
  15. I'm sure this is one of those simple to answer questions. As long as you know the answer..! I can edit the text of my ad, but how do I drop the advertised price...? Cheers Graham
  16. **PRICE DROP** NOW £40... I bought this keyboard from Andertons in October 2020 for a project that didn't happen. https://www.andertons.co.uk/alesis-q49-49-key-usb-midi-keyboard-controller I took it out of the box, checked it was working and put it back again. It came out again yesterday for the photographs so it's in 'as new' condition. It comes with the original packaging and documentation. I'd prefer collection in person or by your courier but could deliver, subject to COVID restrictions. I have several appointments in Southampton over the next few weeks so maybe that would work for you.
