  1. [quote name='Happy Jack' post='307261' date='Oct 15 2008, 05:32 PM']On the other hand, a year ago I shipped a Selmer Treble'n'Bass valve amp to Sarajevo. I got our Despatch Department to sort it out properly.

    It was bubble-wrapped, inside a sturdy cardboard box packed out with styrofoam chips, which was heavily bubble-wrapped, and placed inside a truly magnificent cardboard box packed out with foam sheeting. I had removed all the valves and individually bubble-wrapped each of them. This thing would have won prizes in a wrapping competition.

    Two weeks later the buyer emailed me to say that he'd just collected the parcel from his local Customs Depot. Half the valves were broken and the back of the amp was missing.

    He was delighted.

    Compared to the way that Bosnian Customs usually treat in-bound parcels, this was the best condition he'd ever received an amp in.

    :) that's magnificent!

  2. I have now managed to acquire this though the magic of the forum and I'd just like to say- WOW!
    If anyone has a chance to order one of these then please do, this pedal does absolute wonders to your sound. I originally was using it to try to get a bit of distortion, but soon realised that the warmth and fullness of tone it brought to my ray was the best thing about any pedal I've ever had! Top marks dave, top marks!

  3. Right, done being a greedy git, dropped to £700.
    Now I've got over tryin to make a bit of money out of it to make it worth my while me being cause short finance-wise, I need rid as this bass is useless to me as I can't play owt upside down. Anyway, if you've got any questions then be all means PM me as now I'm the one caught with my capital tied up in a bass and I've got bills :)

  4. Hi guys, this was someone elses on the forum but I took it off his hands to help him with some cashflow problems, which is why this is right handed but I'm a lefty git :)
    I'm willing to do £700 inc postage for anyone here on the forums.
    I believe this has been through one or two sets of hands on the forum already so I'd prefer it to go here than anywhere else of course :huh:
    Bit more info, it was originally fretless but was fretted at the gallery I believe, I left that out of the ebay listing as I didn't think that the normal buyer on ebay would realise that a professional job like at the gallery wouldn't really affect the value.

    Please note in the last picture, the upper horn is not damaged, it's just the lighting.

    Was originally coming in a pretty crap hardcase, will now put it in a super smashing Hiscox one if it will encourage a sale!


    SOLD NOW

  5. What a great sale this was! Saw the cab and I had it about 5 hours later :huh:
    Great guy, even dropped it off for me, and put up with my terrible directions too :)
