    [b]I have now included UK shipping in the really nice price of £150.[/b] That's got to be a bargain, it's nearly new, nicely set up and plays and sounds really nice, just a bit too small and lightweight for me.

    Squier VM Jaguar in lovely Candy Apple red. I bought this in Feb from GAK, it was about £200, the idea was to keep it as a spare and mod and upgrade but it's never going to happen so it has to go. It is as new and looks, plays and sounds really nice, much better than the price of them suggests. It is an extremely light guitar with a nice low action so is very easy on the back. It has no case but will be well packed if it needs to be shipped anywhere, which I am happy to do. I live near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire and you are more than welcome to come and have a try and a cuppa. Any marks are just reflections or light smudges the guitar is perfect. Thanks for looking.

    Just bought a Hartke HA3000 from David. Excellent amp, excellent price and really a really good transaction. The communication was spot on, the amp was as described and came bang on the day promised. David is a really good man to deal with and is a credit to Basschat, he is someone you can trust and do business with. Mike(Pestie)

    I have had this for about 3 months and bought it off a forum member who bought it new about 6 months before I got it. I have only used it 3 times at practice and now need to get something a bit more powerful so it has to go. It is as new and comes in the original packaging and has no problem driving my Hartke 2x10 and a Trace 15". This is a real bargain because I need to finance something else and it needs to be sold asap. Thanks for looking. Mike (Pestie)

    Does anybody want this, I got a five set and only need four. It is brand new, unused and still in the packet. If you want it please pm with your address and I will get it in the post to you. cheers Mike(Pestie)

    Just keep on going mate. I am fairly new to gigging and have had similar experiences, at one it sounded like six people doing six different songs. My advice is just enjoy it, laugh it off and get back on and do it again. It's great fun so just enjoy and try not to be too hard on yourself. Mike(Pestie Don't take life too seriously because you won't get out alive!!!

    Thank you all for your help and support. I am glad you went into detail about the finish Rich. I will sand, nitro and bees wax and it will look even better than it does now. Thanks again to you all, I will post pics again when I have finished the final bit of sanding and polishingm Mike
  20. Pestie
    It has a couple of coats of hand applied nitro cellulose on at the moment. I still need to do a bit more fine sanding then I think I will either put on some more nitro or some tung oil and bees wax, but I suppose it is unfinished. Thanks for asking Mike

    Come on lads, let's get back to being sensible. Martin is a top guy, top teacher, top guitar maker! During the week I was there I met four different local guitar/bass players all gigging musicians, men and women who have been going back for years and between them have made some incredible guitars and basses of the highest quality. I can't put mine down! I can't recommend Martin and his guitar/bass making skills enough, try it out, you will be amazed, I know I was and I have a bass that I made and am really proud of. I will post some pics as soon as I get them onto Photobucket. Thanks Mike(Pestie)

    I have just got back from the best week I have had. I spent Mon-Fri at MD Guitars in Otley, W,York's with Martin Dixon of MD Guitars making my own bass. It was unbelievable, I started on Monday with four pieces of fairly rough wood: Swamp Ash, American Maple, Rosewood. By yesterday, after a lot of routing, sawing, filing and sanding I had a P type bass with Wizard Thumper & Eighty Four in it and Wilkinson hardware. It is amazing and there is only one in the world!!!!! That's got to be good. It has a full size P type Swamp Ash body and a medium 32" scale, tailor made! CTS pots, Orange Drop cap, Switchcraft jack socket, Allparts scratchplate and control knobs. If you want a realy exceptional week in the Dales and walk away with your own hand built bass to any design or spec you want you should try it. Martin is in the back of guitarist under MD Guitars give it a go, I'm going back soon to make another. MD Guitars, 01943 462604, [email protected] Prices range from £450 for the week and that includes the guitar you make and lunch. You can also do B&B for £15 per night, evening meal is another £5.
