  1. Hi, I've just changed all of my current cymbals to Meinl Custom Classic Darks, so I'm now looking to sell all of the cymbals that were on my kit before the Meinl's came along! This is a full comprehensive set of cymbals that all sound superb. All have been used, some are older than others but all are in great condition and have no cracks anywhere. You can see the Sabian Pro Ride and the Zildjian Avedis Crash logos are faded a little, but this doesn't in any way impact the sound quality. All in, to buy these new would have cost you somewhere around £1200. The cymbals included are all listed below, I'll also throw in a decent quality Cymbal gig bag so they can all be carried away easily! Zildjian ZXT 14" Hi-Hats Paiste PST5 16" Thin Crash Zildjian Avedis 16" Crash Meinl HCS 10" Splash Istanbul Agop Xist 18" Crash Paiste 101 18" Crash Sabian Pro 20" Ride Paiste PST8 18" Rock China Collection from Wickford, Essex would be ideal, but I can probably post them if needed for around £20 as I have some spare bubble wrap and a box I can send them in - as well as them being in the cymbal bag.
  2. Just finished putting together my new kit... Absolutely love it! The Shell Pack is a 7 piece Tamburo Opera Stave kit, hand made in Italy. It looks and sounds awesome with Evans blue hydrolic heads. I've switched my cymbals over to an 8 piece set of Meinl Custom Classic Darks. The black/gold hardware on the 'fantasy blue' finish of the kit works perfectly with the black/gold of the Meinl cymbals. It's a WAY better kit than my amateur drum skills deserve... I'll keep at it and maybe build up to skills deserving of it in 20 years...
  3. Absolutely bargain... if I was travelling anywhere near you I'd take them.
  4. Given the clear lies about having 'just bought it yesterday from a shop' and then advertising several guitars at 3 to 4 times RRP, I think we can factor that out. The below Ibanez Talman is £229 new, so him 'buying it yesterday' and saying that even at £560 it's 'loosing him money' is, to say the least, utter crªp.
  5. Also selling a Yamaha Pacifica 112 for £500 (down from £900 last week!) and a 'new' Ibanez Talman for £560 despite them being £250 new from any retailer. Pipe dreams or scammer??
  6. Right, this one is a tough one... it really subtle, but can you spot the problem with this post?
  7. There's a wanted ad for one of these...
  8. I'm not at all a Fender man, but this is almost enough to make me want to consider a Fender! Looks beautiful.
  9. Completed a standard Basschat shady car park exchange with @eddking this morning. T'was a rather bulky afair as the deal involved 4 guitars, a 7 piece drum kit and a big old bag of hardware! One of the finer things in life are these shady car park deals! Eddie was a true gent (and possibly a scholar?), he drove a fairly considerable distance to get the deed done and was a thorough decent chap! I'd be very happy to buy or sell to Mr King again - another credit to basschat!
  10. I'll be in Hinckley on Thursday for a few hours late morning/early afternoon... Any ability to meet there?
  11. Hi, Up for sale is my Mapex Black Panther Black Widow 14x5.5 Snare drum. I've had this for 2 years or so, it's been used by me and my drummer in my rehearsal room and hasn't ever left there so it's in excellent condition. It sounds super sharp, it current has a Remo Fiberskyn head on it and I think i have the original Mapex cloth bag for it somewhere... Collection from Wickford, Essex or I could potentially post if needed. I'll get some pictures up tomorrow - the current one is an Internet grab! Any questions, please do ask!
  12. Hi, Up for sale is my PDP Concept 8" Tom. I've had this on my kit for a year or so from new, it's not been gigging and it's probably only been hit a few dozen times. These are fantastic toms, great to extend your kit to a 7 piece. Retail, these are north of £200 so £80 is a more than fair price. It's in excellent condition, no marks anywhere - very near mint condition! Collection from Wickford, Essex though I can probably post if needed. Any questions, please ask.
  13. Hi, Up for sale here is my Mapex Storm Shell Pack. It's in the Textured Grey colour, which has a really clean and expensive look to it. Condition is absolutely excellent and it'll come with the floor tom legs as well as the tom mounts for the kick drum, so it can be set up and played without any additional hardware needed. The Pack includes: Mounted Tom 1: 10x7" Mounted Tom 2: 12x8" Floor Tom 1: 14x12" Floor Tom 2: 16x14" Kick Drum: 22x18" There is no snare included with the above however I do have a Mapex Black Panther snare and stand that I will be selling separately if you're interested in a deal for the Shell Pack and the Snare. I also have a PDP Concept 8" Tom if you want a 7 piece type kit. Happy to talk about a sale for the 5 piece Shell Pack, Black Panther snare and PDP 8" tom. Will load some more pictures tomorrow. Collection from Wickford, Essex. Any questions, let me know.

  14. @EddieG - How's the bass, does it play well? Mine didn't... Intonation was way off and with a fixed bridge it could be rectified. Hope you're enjoying you're new bass. Assuming you have it that is... Sadly the betting man in me would wager everything I own of you not having it.
  15. Still don't get it... Doesn't sound like anything particularly remarkable to me!
  16. I've never heard of Joe Dart, or anything by him and I don't really understand why you'd need 3 basses to do the job one decent bass with a decent set of pickups could do... They look very dull and they seem very limited in their application. Feels like a bit of a cash grab from whoever Mr Dart is. I'm sure they'll have buyers, but these are a hard pass from me! Totally not my cup of tea at all! Good thing we're all different.
  17. Took delivery of the Autumn Leaves edition today... A Risk as I bought it from a chap on Gumtree that was 500 miles away in Northern Scotland so collection wasn't an option! Arrived exactly as described... By some miracle stroke, I found today the Tree of Life too, so 2 more for the collection with just Wild Deer left to find! 12 down, 1 to go!
  18. Saw it a few hours ago, looks lovely but I've bought too many things recently to buy anything else!
  19. Old thread resurrection! Mr Juice bought a case from me, paid promptly, good communication, absolutely no issues! Another solid credit to basschat!
  20. The routing of the neck pickup looks to be slightly worse than 'not that neat'... To second what has already been said, unless your looking to lower the price by 60%, you'd be better keeping it. Even at a price hovering around £250 I suspect you'd struggle to sell it. Basses like this are like hot rods in the car world, they're cool but you will never ever get back your initial investment.
  21. Yup, bargain. It'll be gone in a day is reckon!
  22. Nik bought a little Ibanez guitar from me over the weekend - a perfectly smooth and easy transaction! Nik's a great chap to deal with, top communication, prompt payment - an all round good egg! 🥚 More than happy to deal with Nik again, another top credit to the basschat community!
