Line 6 Helix Stomp as per the photos. Excellent condition, fully working, firmware updated to the latest version, and very, very clever. In fact, too clever for a simple soul such as I, hence the sale. I prefers me separates. I’ll leave my one and only patch in it too - it only has a Pitch Shifter in it for Pete, our singer, hence the patch name. Price includes tracked shipping. Here’s the manufacturer’s bumph: https://uk.line6.com/hx-stomp/ Here’s the pictures:

Boss WL-50 wireless system in excellent condition, could almost pass for new. Very clever bit of kit, with DC in and out (useful), cable loss settings, and a straight through option should you forget to charge the transmitter - like I said, proper clever. Working perfectly, only I’m scrapping my pedalboard so this will be replaced by the Boss WL-20 ‘two bugs’ system. Price includes tracked shipping within the UK.

Thanks @AScheck9 and more thanks to you and the other lovely people who’ve done reviews on Amazon. I’m up to 11 (now there’s a phrase!) now, and feeling very humbled, flattered and ever so slightly author-ish. “Oi, Branson, pass the caviar and stop hogging it” is a phrase I’m now practising regularly 😎 Thanks again, peeps! -
Sold Dave my Stingray. Top gent, prompt payment, pleasure to deal with, and he bought my book too - all round good guy! 😎

Fellow BCers, I could do with a trans-Atlantic favour (or favor, even). I recently self-published my book on playing bass in covers bands (Recovers, by Alfie Noakes). It’s been well received on here, so I though I’d launch in America, kinda. Up went the TalkBass post, a nice bit of interest and some sales followed, then a day later my thread was pulled as you’re not allowed to promote your own wares on TalkBass. I apologised to the mod for my oversight, and wept slightly as I saw I had 49 alerts on my thread, that I could no longer get to. Perhaps they were 49 cease and desist messages from the mods, or 49 people wanting to buy a copy - I’ll never know 😭 However, the mod did say that if someone were to ask me a question on TalkBass about my book, then it is permissible to reply, advise and discuss, or words to that effect. So, cutting to the quick, if someone here who has a profile over there, or even someone over there who has a profile over here, was to start a post on TalkBass about the link below, and include an @Alfie Noakes in the words, possibly asking me if it’s my book, and how did I get it published, and even how it’s selling, I’d be your best friend for like, forever. This ain’t gonna make me rich, but it might fund a few purchases on here (pedals, if I’m lucky!). I’ve mulled over this, and don’t think it’s unethical, but if a BC mod feels otherwise, feel free to pull this thread too. Hey, I’m getting used to it 😎 Here’s the Amazon US link, and thanks in advance to anyone who helps: https://www.amazon.com/RECOVERS-bassist-covers-bands-survive-ebook/dp/B08CGY1V9X/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Alfie+noakes&qid=1605980716&sr=8-1

Thanks Pete - I’m tempted to do something similar about my (less than) illustrious career, the jobs I’ve had along the way, and all the work funnies I’ve enjoyed and been involved in, and there’s been loads of them!! I need to live for another forty years or so, and keep playing in bands, to do a proper sequel and at 58, that’s unlikely!
