    Fair enough. I’m not sure why anyone would take the lack of a response so personally…

    Perhaps he (or she) is upset and embarrassed at being conned. They owe us nothing at all.

    No just £99 as I need the space and can’t be bothered to lug this to the lock up!
  4. Burns-bass
    Classic and excellent value indeed

    Having sold or given away 10 instruments in the last few months I’m financially and mentally better for it!

    Here we have a lovely, well used Epiphone Lee Paul Special ii. This has just been restrung with new D’addario strings and plays well. All functions correctly, I just don’t use it. Thought my daughter would but she doesn’t either. Lot of guitar for the money.

    To add to this list, I hate it when private sellers attempt to charge shop prices fr gear when they have none of the overheads and offer none of the securities (the option to pay with a credit card, 3 month guarantee etc.)

    Still here…
  9. Burns-bass
    Reduced price!
  10. Burns-bass
    Beautiful
  11. Burns-bass
    Agreed. Bit of pentatonic bashing!
  12. Burns-bass
    I think this is lightly different. Restroirng instruments isn’t collecting, that’s putting something positive back into the world!

    Bump – still here.
  14. Burns-bass
    Few still here. Will package and send pre Christmas if you want them!

    It's a good point. I've advertised this on the forums you suggest and was given an ebay offer, so I chose to list it there. It's a low value item. What's worse, is the guy here lives fairly close (an hour away), and as several members here would attest, I'm happy to drive out and meet people. In this instance, the guy read the description, knew what was happening, and ignored it which wasted my time, cost me money, and annoyed me. Am I petty for getting annoyed? Yes. But if the internet isn't a place for privileged white men to get angry and moan about pointless things, then what is it for?

    I read this and was about 12 seconds away from buying one, and then I re-read the psychology of collecting thread and didn't as I have a functional gig rig. These look like great amps and a good bargain (if you need an amp).
  17. Burns-bass
    Wow, that looks stunning!
  18. Burns-bass
    Apologies for the back pain it will cause you!
  19. Burns-bass
    Hmm, that's good to know! I'll message them. Thanks!

    Yeah, I had that. Annoyingly I had one of those deal things that cuts fees by 80%, so I lose that. I'll always try to sell stuff here, but it's guitar based rather than bass and I don't really go on any guitar forums so ebay seemed the best place.

    I advertised my Carlsboro valve amp on eBay with a collection only stipulation. Someone clicked the buy button, then immediately emailed me to say "I'm sorry it's not looking good for collection, but if you package up the amp I'll have Royal Mail collect it." When I pointed out this wasn't going to happen and that his idiocy had cost me money and wasted my time, he started getting aggressive about it. I appreciate this is an entirely pointless post, but I just wanted to vent somewhere. Ebay idiots, eh?

    I use an HD350 into a Barefaced cab and it sound me amazing (modern blues rock, funk) etc) I sometimes add a 15” speaker cab if im playing somewhere that demands it. Always sounds sweet and is plenty loud enough

    The Pacifica is a nice guitar but it’ll lose 75% of its value the minute you play it. Given most new starters give up, I’d buy something with one eye on resale. The Affinity strays are awful (unfinished neck, cheap components etc). I’d personally invest in a Squier VM, and get something that will last for a long time.

    I’m not sure that anyone here is interested in a high quality valve amp for guitar, but I have to dispose of this Carlsboro Fatboy 30w. It’s mid 90s I guess and handmade in the UK. It comes with a celestion speaker, recent revalve and works perfectly! Im having a huge clear out of stuff I don’t use and this is a big one. I paid £200 and now looking to just get it gone before Christmas. I can’t send this, but I make a mean cup of tea if you want to check it out.

    Embarrassingly, if forgotten I owned this so I don’t feel any issues with selling it! It’s a Squier VM fretless jazz bass. This is a really well made instrument with the high quality Seymour Duncan designed pickups. The bass is in excellent condition, apart from an almighty chip out of the top! I had planned on doing a relic job on this, but I never had the heart to do it (and I don’t play fretless, either) so it’s here for sale. Currenrly wearing D’addario chromes but will be strung with Rotosounds as I can use the Chromes on another bass. was looking for £180 which seems reasonable based on past sales. Parcelforce 24 shipping included (neck off)
