    Hey guys, I built this about 3 weeks ago, but since acquiring some new pedals, I just built another one this morning. It's big enough for one wah/expression/volume pedal and 6 standard size pedals plus a slim power brick. It's made from one piece of sturdy woodchip board with a wood effect laminate on top to male it look cool, it has a riser at the back so you don't stamp on the front pedals while accessing the back ones. Theres Velcro on it already, you can just peel it off. And it has padded feet so it doesn't scratch your floor! I'm happy to sell or trade, it will probably cost at least a fiver to send, so it's yours for £18 including postage or £13 if you pick it up. Its Very sturdy beast and I can email/text photos if you want! Russ.

    Hey guys, I have a Fender mini twin amp, with fresh battery, that I don't use. It's a cool little beast, fun for messing around with. I don't really want cash, I'd rather trade it for a pedal of some variety, not fussed what really, something interesting.... What you got? It's in brand new condition, cost £40 odd new about 5 months ago. I'm writing this on my phone so I can put a picture in, but if you google 'fender mini twin' you'll see it! It's in green tweed. Let me know! Russ.

    Retract!!! Not what I thought it was... *facepalm* (if it doesn't sell I'll make good on my error as it's only a tenner!)

    Hey, A friend bought an 80's hohner acoustic and it turned out to be a right off. It looks spot on but the neck has been damaged and is completely unplayable... So we want to turn it into a novelty amp I need a half decent 4 inch speaker and the other various parts to knock up a mini amp that I can mount on the inside of the guitar. Ideas? Advice? Parts? Help appreciated Russ

    Hey, sorry everything is sold apart from the Spector and Conklin.
  17. binky_bass
    My last two bargaining chips are a Spector euro LX6 and a Conklin GTBD-7 but these are currently traded pending the usuals. But this is the nicest MM I've seen in a long time, possibly ever. I'm thinking you'll regret the sale buddy, don't do it! (or do it when I can afford it! )
  18. binky_bass
    Not a fan of MM's usually, but I'm nursing a semi over this

    Bought a Mesa m-pulse 600 and powerhouse 4x10. Good and trusting guy! Nice and easy transaction, buy with confidence from this dude has a crazy good status/musicman mash up bass, played fantastic! Russ.

    I regret starting this.... lol well, Mr Pierre, you may be right in saying that they appear every month or so, but it be people like you that reply to them plus.... that lego bass is awesome! I want! Many opinions are floated in topics like these, so I think that almost validates their existence. Just to be a big hairy hypocrite, If I had money pouring out of my ears, I'd probably have a fodera made for me... a buckeye burl emperor 7 string would be nice.
  21. binky_bass
    So... Maybe the key is to find a cheap but good luthier to make you an exact copy of a fodera for a third of the price and name it a fauxdera It'll be like those Chinese cars that look exactly like an Audi or BMW but cost about £10,000 instead of £30,000. So, who wants one of my fauxderas? It'll be mostly made of Lego though...
  22. binky_bass
    I suppose all this really sums up to the whole 'designer brand' theory's. Though unlike some brands, at least fodera carries a worthwhile reputation. And as much as I do think I'd rather spend $14,500 on several others things, i suppose with supply and demand etc then foderas are a bass marketed with a boutique 'not everyone can own us' attitude. Much like the 'Wayne rover' Still, a buckeye Burl emporer 6 would be a nicer think to own than a blinged up excuse for a 4x4

    I agree with the sentiment that what wr think doesn't matter, that's pretty much they way most things in life go. And as for ricks, fenders, gibsons etc they're pricetags are somewhat more realistic. And as much as 'if you had the custom, charge what you want' may apply here I still find it difficult to understand why a Wooten yin yang deluxe is worth $14,500. But yes, each to their own, and foderas do hold their value, but I can't help but think that as much as they are great basses, the cons of the price much outweigh the pros of the instrument. (PS I didn't see/read any similar topics, I'll go look )
  24. binky_bass
    And an awesome rig it is too! Cheers Tommy!

    Hey, Been looking at some foderas recently and maybe its just me, but the seem almost unattainably expensive... Don't get me wrong, they are excellent instruments, but with a price tag of over $10,000 new in wondering why the command this price tag when there are multiple other stock and custom basses out there which are just as good for half the price... The woods and electrics don't seem to be better than options for a custom, I just can't get My head round the price tags. Any thoughts? Just curious is all
