Personally..not for me but I probably would go for a Brian May signature telescope.

Isn't that a bit like a "Slash" tenor sax or a Marcus Miller Strat?

Had a black SG2000 back in the day. Ex Jimmy Page guitar with providence, although I never ever saw him use one. Fantastic sound but a little too heavy.  Another one of my great moves, selling that😂

They even do a L/H duvet set.

My other half has just asked if I want one (she said it looks like cake, but then she is guilty of owning a paisley tele).  Where can they be purchased from? I am not sure of the consequences though

I'll see if I can find the link again for you but it is likely to have disappeared into the abyss where all things on Face book go when you want to find them again.

This 'other half' would only object to the fact that the damn thing shows an effing Precision. 🙄😂

A month ago, I would have agreed but I just bought one😂 A Precision that is, not the duvet cover cover.

A rug with the same design popped up on my FB feed a few days ago.  I nearly convinced the wife it would look great in the living room.

Oh dear me🤣

Go on. You know you want to. I'm sure the other half wouldn't mind.

Hi,

Does this have a working truss rod?

Took this off my Status Energy as I opted for single bridge pieces.  Could do with a severe clean up and maybe a quick spray. Screws and both Allen keys inc.  18mm centers.

£10 + P+P.

If you decide to get rid of the knackered p bass would you give me a shout please as I rebuild basses from donated parts and give them to charities and schools and the like so I am always on the lookout for cheap or donated instruments or parts. Hope you don’t mind me asking

 

Thanks

I know Jon, I  sent you a Strat. If I  decide to dump this, yes you can have it. All depends if I  end up with a P bass of some sort for the Epi. 

Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor in lovely condition with a Seymour Duncan in the neck position. Pick guard missing but that's how I got it. Lots of players take them off anyway.

Got this on BC a few years back. It's been great. I used it for three years solid in a jazzy duo act in France and it sounded great. Stays in tune, fab low action and comes with a shaped, plush lined hard case.

I actually got the band to try these, just once in each case, and they dropped them after each one, sent the audience crazy. Considering we were a party covers band known for whipping up a frenzy, I couldn't believe how shortsighted the others in the band were. We played them well too. Very frustrating for me.

Never can say goodbye, Communards version.

99 Red balloons, Goldfinger version

Streets with no name

I'm outa love,  Anastasia

Waterfront, Simple minds

Word up,  Gun version

Any idea of weight? Can't find anything on t'interweb.

Cheapy guitar seat. No stand incorporated and non adjustable however, very sturdy and probably better for playing an EUB seated which is why I got it.

Nice condition, buyer collects.

Did search but found nothing so sorry if there is already a thread.

Jon bought a cab from me.  Ultra nice guy, punctual, great comms and no problems whatsoever. Happy to chat and very helpful and informative on the subject of home built cabs.

Pleasure to deal with.

Found it. Just got to figure out best way to get it to you if it's not too far gone for you.   Needs a couple of tuners and probably some wiring sorted. Nothing happens when you plug it in.

A big thank you to @whizzzyfor the neck. I couldn’t do this without all the donations

I'll have a look in me boxes. Might have an Encore Strat in a shed somewhere.

It's a fix. Three of the four options were all 28.57% after I voted.

I'm not accepting these results.

I mean, had it have been yer 28.5% I  wouldn't have minded so much but 28.57%? I'm not 'avin it🤨

I get the impression these bands are mainly playing for themselves rather than aiming to entertain punters. Musical circle jerking.

I was extremely impressed when I  first heard them and obviously, they are extremely technically talented but it sort of sounds like everything is a demonstration at NAMM or a clinic just before they throw the floor open to questions about Henrik's preferred shampoo and conditioner.

And to top it all, this is a very very silly price for a cab such as this. Incredible bargain really!

Probably, but it's a reflection of when I bought it, it needing a little exterior sprucing up and how much I originally paid, but if anyone wants to pay above the £85, you're welcome to pop a fiver or tenner to the Macmillan cancer trust or the MS society😀

Tatty, but fully working and lovely sounding ABM Mini 4x8.  600w @ 8 Ohms.  Not the lightest 4x8 in the world but has served me well for the last couple of years. 

  Funnily enough, it sounds really nice with my Bassix EUB through an LM2 which I wasn't expecting if I'm honest. It's a handy little cab. Drivers all good. I think there's a weird Ashdown amp that takes one of these and one of something else to make a mini rig of some type but could be wrong.  Anyway, works fine on it's own.

SOLD

Can't send due to obvious so come and try it.  I have amps, basses and Nespresso machine so no need to bring anything.

Also up for a trade of some sort.  Maybe a 1x12 that can handle 300w not fussed about condition as long as it's a little smaller than this one as we've moved into a small house.   An Epiphone EB type short scale type bass, maybe a Squier short scale,  again not fussed about condition as long as it works. Try me. Don't mind a little cash to add for the right thing.

Squier Strat, Korean. Early 90's.  Plays really nice. Great colour, typical Strat sound, 5 way switching and lovely maple neck. Couple of very slight marks on body by jack socket otherwise it's spot-on. 

New 10-46 Rotosounds and set up just last week.  Can courier at buyers risk or, try it out and collect from Swaffham PE37 8EE. Have amps here so no need to bring anything.

Any other more specific pics, just ask.

Thanks everyone for the interesting input. 

I got this to use for slide so I'll definitely carry on sorting it out for that purpose. It actually has quite a nice dirty tone to it so, for the £3 it cost at the council tip shop, result.

Was just interested to find out what it actually was, so thanks
