  1. Many thanks gents (I think ). I'm putting this on hold, as I've come back from a late gig, to 5 very nice offers. Having a bit of a think (well, waking up 1st
  2. Hastily arranged & poor picture, but, erm, you get the picture
  3. CASH COLLECTED £400 Trade value £500 Neil Shoemark luthier built Gibson TRIBUTE non reverse Thunderbird. NOT a Gibson!!!!! I was informed it has an original 68 Gibson T Bird pick up. I can’t prove that but have absolutely no reason to doubt it. Body is Benin Walnut, mahogany neck, rosewood board. It now has an expensive Babicz bridge. It weighs 9lb 12oz. It has quite a few cymbal nibbles on the headstock, a few nick’s, chips & bumps. The original owner has one of Mr. Entwistle’s original 67 NR Tbirds. The template for this bass was taken from that bass. I am the second owner. A non reverse was an itch that had to be scratched but I am not comfortable playing it. It feels more of a pick players bass, I use fingers. This comes with a very battered case which does the job, although it consists of gaffer tape & dark matter (bloody heavy). I will take photos later on but there are a couple below from the original advert on Craig Addecott Bass Guitars page on Facebook (hope he doesn’t mind). I did not pay that price for this bass. I realise this is niche, hence cash price. I really would prefer trial & collection from Wigan, so a buyer can see if it’s for them. TRADES ! Fender J or P (the ONLY Gibson I have ever got on with was an Explorer, go figure!) Magellan 800, PUMA. I have a couple of hundred quid to add if needed. And no, your 1998 Mex J that was £220 new is not worth £500 to me now . Thanks for looking, Cheers, Karl.
  4. Gorgeous, hurry up & get this bought peeps.
  5. Fabulous
  6. I bought a non reverse Tbird TRIBUTE. It's luthier made. I was informed the pick up was an original 1967 Thunderbird pick up. It's in remarkable condition for a 50 year old pick up . I can see no numbers on it, apologies for photos, I'm really crap at close ups. Anybody know where I might find serial numbers etc?
  7. John, you're ALWAYS on Chubby's shows
  8. Did that damn woman not show AGAIN?? I'll have words when she gets home Thanks for the comments guys, all PM's replied, still currently available.
  9. Testing testing. IF YOU CLICK on the pics, wondrous things happen As per title, one of the earlier ones from 2009. Very light Basswood at 8lb 1oz. Great (original) bridge, 9.5 inch radius, 1.5 inch nut. Decent gig bag included. Lovely jazz, surplus to requirements. £250 collected from Wigan, can meet up within 50 miles at weekend (sorry deposit of £50 required) Any trial in Wigan, feedback hopefully linked below. Thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
  10. If photos are in the "public domain" and not copy righted??? is it actually illegal? How would that be policed?
  11. Steve, don't know if you get notifications in this brave new format but I replied to your amp question yesterday. Have a bump for this ridiculously tempting bargain while I'm here.

    Tort rant

    A quick google finds something similar, acrylic drip painting opens a world of possibilities as well

    Tort rant

    A few years back I came across an instructional video on how to paint your own tortie plate. Great video, although I remember it being quite a painstaking process. Being gormless I never kept it and can't find it now.
  14. Lonely this Christmas, could never get that doll out of my mind
  15. Royal Philharmonic with Royal Choral Society, Sky Ingram, Marc Heller, & Imperial Military Band on Thurs night at Albert Hall. Sort of Last Night of The Proms for those who can't get tickets. 42nd Street on Wed eve. Simply fantastic both nights. Musically inspirational on both evenings.
  16. Unfortunately Michael, I feel the same about the Marus wotsit one. Horses, courses etc
