    Just bought a Squier Jazz from Andy; great instrument punching well above its weight. Arrived well-packaged. Easy to deal with. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy from Andy again.

    Beautiful!

    I think most ACG folks on here would share my view when I say, ‘no’. I’ve got a P-bass and switch between the two without thinking about it. I’m not a pro so that may be a factor but , like I say, all ACGs are easy to play. I see you’re near Swindon; whereabouts?

    They are works of art and so easy to play. Good range of tones from the John East pre-amp. I’ll add the weight later but it’s light. Looking to fund a custom build hence the sale. I had a Finn 5 up on here recently, Wenge and Bubinga a la Thumb. The weight (5.2kg) scared people, I think.

    O2 presale for Leeds First Direct; cheapest tickets £136 and some of those are nosebleeds. Saw Fleetwood Mac there a few years ago. Fifteen rows back, opposite Mick Fleetwood’s drum riser, £125. Will wait for Musical Box next February.

    Leeds is on the itinerary so if the ticket prices don’t warrant a kidney sale, I’ll try for a couple on Friday. Saw them 10 times between 1976 and 1983 when I finally decided it was time to stop.

    Saw Steve Hackett at the Barbican in York in November and enjoyable as it was, I would spend my money on The Musical Box for the authentic Genesis experience. First Genesis gig for me was 1976 at Stafford, having failed to get tickets for The Lamb tour the previous year, so note perfect Gabriel era material with vintage gear was a treat. Goose pimples-a-plenty!
