	Here is my absolutely excellent Gibson SG Standard, not to be mistaken for the cheaper faded version. This is high gloss Heritage Cherry with block markers. I bought it off Oggy earlier this year and it is amazing. The only reason I am selling it is because I am just about to finish making a short scale bass of my own. The SG has the advantage of a replacement Hipshot Supertone bridge which is a massive improvement on the original 3 point bridge. The original comes with the bass. It also has a luthier fitted Guy Lewis handmade thumb rest between the pickups which is really useful and well positioned. The bass is almost mint, no knocks or dings anywhere, no fret wear, there are a few light marks on the back but nothing through to the paint, they can only be seen in certain light and can't be picked out in pics. All in all this is an excellent bass that comes in its equally excellent original Gibson hardcase. I don't want trades thank you. I'm having a clear out. I am based near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire and you are more than welcome to come and try it out, have a cuppa and a natter. Alternatively, I am happy to ship at the buyers expense. Thanks for looking.

	Here is my very lovely 2005 CIJ Fender Precision in Fiesta Red with Tortie scratch plate very much like the one that Pino plays. The bass has a Jason Lollar Custom 64 pick up in it and it sounds amazing. It is set up fairly low and plays really nicely with no rattles or buzzes. It has a few minor marks on the bottom of the body but nothing that is a problem. The neck is free of any dings and the frets are hardly marked. All in all it is really nice looking, sounding and playing bass. I'm having a clear out so it has to go. I don't want any trades thank you, I really do need to thin out. You are more than welcome to come along and give it a try out. I live near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire. I am happy to ship at the buyers expense. Thanks for looking.

	Hey Everyone I recently bought a really lovely 91 MIK Precision off the forum. I would like to put in some new pickups that give me a nice punchy sound. It would be really nice if you could make suggestions so that I can make a choice of what to put in it. I really don't know what to put in at the moment but I'm sure somebody will have done this with cracking results. Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you. Mike (Pestie)

				Slinger Strap
Pestie replied to Pestie's topic in Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale

	This is an almost new USA made [b]Slinger[/b] strap. It is ideal for those heavy basses or a bass that is prone to neck dive. It secures around your waste to take the weight and has the normal over the shoulder attachments. This strap makes a very heavy bass feel really light. I bought it when I had a bad back, used it a few times and now don't need it any more. I would like £20 please plus £4 postage. Thanks for looking Mike (Pestie)
