  1. Shure SE425 Pro IEM Headphones. Hardly used as I preferred my Westones in terms of fit (although sound was better in the Shures IMO.) Comes with the Shure case as per pics, and I have removed the (hardly) used tips, cleaned the buds and will include 2 bags of various tips with the headphones. There are cleaning tools, loads of foam tips and the standard tips as well. Mainly small and medium tips as I used the large ones. These are still £200 plus (£233/£239 in various online shops) so save yourself £100 on what are pretty much new headphones. PM me with any questions. Carl.

  2. As per title, great little guitar stand which folds up nice and small and neat. Very little use and you would be hard pressed to tell the difference from a new one. All foam is as new and everything clicks nicely into place. Comes with the bag. Currently £26-£28 online plus postage - £18.50 posted via RM tracked anyone?
  3. Basically a neat little gig back pack - 2 compartments in the middle and lots of pockets for storage. I bought this as I was doing some gigs down in 'Landan Tawn' and had to do some underground tubing across to venues. It was much easier than handfuls of bags. Although not in the pics, it does have the additional shoulder strap. Used about 4 times, it's pretty much as new. To buy a new one would cost you £41 from Thomann with postage. £23 posted to someone? This is the Thomann link
  4. Aaaaaahhhh.... sorry just got there. It was a late night Thursday...
  5. It hasn’t currently but I have some sticky rubber pads that I could adhere to it to make a stage box?? Is that the intention??
  6. I am having a clear out and for some reason - many moons ago, bought a whole load of speakon connectors and high quality speaker cable. I need rid as I am skint! So, any length (I seem to have reels of the stuff!), connectors, number of - let me know and I can make them up for you and we can decide on a price. Speakon to Jack or Speakon to Speakon. Or if you want to buy some connectors or cable, give me a shout. A 1m speakon to speakon cable is £18 in G4M - I'm sure I can be cheaper than that! Picture is for illustrative purposes!
  7. Studiospares 8 mic and 4 jack (although 1 jack is missing for some reason!?) wall box - bought for a project and never used (I think was partially soldered and then removed) it's been sitting around since. Might suit a small project studio / drum room or for someone to salvage the connectors? Or could be used as a stage box! Just needs multi-core cable and someone with the patience to solder it up! £5 posted to you - it is quite heavy!
  8. Lexicon Alpha 2x2 USB Audio Interface. Quite old but still powers up and connnects - I don't have a working system to test it fully I'm afraid but I took it to work and connected it to a work PC and it connects and Windows 10 recognises it. No idea about Mac OSX or Win 11 I'm afraid. Should do someone a decent turn and will include the USB cable! Delivery - £3.50 via tracked RM.
  9. I was thinking that - I haven't signed anything. Andertons have ordered from EB so will see how it plays out.
  10. So I bit the bullet today and stuck £180 into a new bridge from Ernie Ball. It pained me to do it but after traipsing round metal finishers in the local area to be told, “no”, “I don’t think so” or “that will cost you more than 200 quid”, then trialling vinyl wrapping with black vinyl I gave up and admitted defeat. I’m not sure how the return of the old bridge will happen (maybe they might forget!) but will cross that bridge when I come to it. So it will have black hardware and will look cool when complete. i have no idea how long the bridge will take to come from EB in the US… but I have a couple of weeks wait for the tuners anyway so no hurry no worry as they say in Fiji. will update when items arrive!
  11. Genuine Musicman Stingray 5 tuners - 4 left and 1 right for the standard 4+1 setup but I do believe these can be reversed (will need to check that). It pains me to sell these, but I want to change from chrome to black on my SR5 and given that Ernie Ball are charging me nearly £200 for a black bridge, I have to recoup some costs! It perfect working order and good condition - the nickel has tarnished a little but I'm sure they will polish up (probably could do with a strip down, clean and re-grease anyway as they are nearly 30 years old). Will include postage in the price - if they don't sell I will keep them and bin my idea of going to black. Comes with the screws and bushes as per the picture. These are available online - B*** D***** have them for £40 each so that's about half price of new. Perfect for a MM style build!
  12. That is very, very nice... I think the chrome knobs and plate really work with the bridge to contrast the black... my SR5, because the scratch plate is black, knobs are black, to me it's crying out for some black hardware. Plus i has SR5 special a while back and loved the look of the black hardware on that - especially the headstock... The question is whether a chrome bridge will look weird with black tuners...
  13. I wouldn't mind an exchange, if it was an exchange price! £175 for a bridge is steep at the best of times...
  14. So, I need some advice. Ernie Ball want £175 for a black bridge and they want the chrome one back as well. That's a no for me. I really want to go black with this as much as I can... would it look weird if I went with black tuners, black scratchplate and knobs, black pup but had a chrome bridge? I thought £175 wouldn't be too bad if I could sell the chrome one to recoup some funds but it's too much for a like for like replacement. Is it worth me trying to spray the original bridge? Chrome sprayed - a lot of people say no... if I scuff up the chrome and it looks crap - I'm in the stink. I have had a look at other bridges but from what I have seen so far, all would leave the brass captive screws showing, it would need to be 110mm wide for it to work. Any advice fellow BC'ers??
