Beedster Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Kinda given up gigging to focus on recording so no longer need these, despite the fact that they're my pride and joy! Cash wise I'm looking for IRO £700 for the 400+, which is in a huge shockmount rack case, and IRO £300 for the 1516. Trades/PX/deal with cash one way or the other for an MIJ/MIA '62 RI Precision or a decent Gibson acoustic The 400+ atop a Mesa 115 (not for sale) Struggling to find pics of the 1516 but will find and post ASAP Cheers Chris Edited January 20, 2013 by Beedster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Williams Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Nooooooooo don't do it Chris! That said, I may well be interested in the 1516EV PMd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Hi Chris, Happy New Year and good luck with all the sales.. Hope everything is going well for you and the family over in Aberystwyth? Must say, I've always fancied one of those 1516's, but I know it'd be overkill in most of the clubs I play in, let alone my back, so I'll pass and let Gary take over West Sussex with his Boogie cabs! On another front, I know you're looking for an 'acousticy sounding acoustic' 6 string at the moment and last year, I bought a Faith Venus, which really fits the bill for me - much more organic and natural sounding than a Takamine or Ovation to my ears.. Might be worth you checking out?? All the best Nik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let the fact that it's overkill in a small club put you off a 1516, it's overkill almost anywhere! I've been using it in a 10'x6' room at home. Thanks for the heads up over the guitar. I think I have my heart set on a j-200, but time and finance will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'll be travelling back to Kent via M6/M40/M25/M2 sometime over the next 5 days so can meet-up or even deliver en-route if that makes the decision to buy easier for anyone?

Beedster Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Given how many BCers have tried to prise the 400+ out of my hands at various times, there's surprisingly little interest here and now! I'll probably put it on eBay before I change my mind, so before i do serious cash offers here will be entertained..... Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 I've now found a guitar that I'd like to buy so the 400+ will either be sold here at a bargain price or will go to eBay at one substantially higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
