  1. I have no doubt that most of the veterans prowling these boards are away of this, but just thought I'd highlight this for anyone who hasnt heard of it:

    Basically you can buy any musical item and pay for it in 10 payments, one of them up front as a deposit, the rest monthly over 9months, and you can take away the item straight away. The best bit is that its [b]interest free[/b], so it costs the same amount as if you bought it outright there and then, you just get to pay it over 9 months, so you're actually paying less as your money is in your account accruing interest or longer :)
    Have used it myself earlier today to buy an instrument and it seems darn nifty, its essentially an interest free loan. The shop owners seem a bit less willing to knock a bit of money off, but thats mnot a hge issue for me.

    "Can be used for instuments up to £2000 or as a part payment towards an instrument of £2000 or above"

    I expect this may cause some sudden and quite severe GASsing around here :huh:

    (mentioned a few pages ago, i know)

    Was just wondering if you tell them how much to declare the item as being worth?

    Thanks

  4. As topic, have an Ashdown Electric Blue 15-180, great for jamming or small gigs. Selling as I have a new rig coming in. No real marks or anything, works perfectly, only think is the handle is a bit tatty, still has the rubber on it tho. Apart from that its all fine.

    Looking for about £110. Maybe trades for a rack compressor.


    Based in preston, pickup prefered tho I could get it sent by parcelforce for about £30
