FS: Barefaced Compact. One of the first made. ** SOLD ** £330

[Sharkfinger]

For sale is my Barefaced Compact. As I understand it, one of the first to roll off the production line.

I bought this new nearly 4 years ago and in that time, it's done over 400 gigs. It's been treated as nature (or rather, Alex) intended and had very little in the way of covering: just something very thin to stop the corner protectors catching on things. Has had plenty of chips, scrapes and bumps along the way and have been repaired as advised by it's creator: with a black marker pen. Can't really tell unless you're looking closely. If that kind of thing bothers you, I would advise waiting for a pristine one to come up (good luck getting there first) or just order a new one.

Now for the sales pitch: it's minimalism and functionality at it's purest and best. At about 11kg, it's a very easy one hand carry and before I got my second 1x15, could carry all my gear into a venue in one trip. The rubber feet I fitted almost right away, as I quickly realized the need and installed some both on the bottom and side. Handle was replaced about a year ago and kindly supplied by Alex for nowt, the corner protectors are brand new and have just been fitted as a final 'tarting up'. If there are some patches that look a slightly different shade of black, it's probably fresh marker pen and will blend in after a little while.

That's it really, not much else to say. I've simply moved on and fancy a more full-range sound. I've debated keeping it just in case but the Big Twin I've just taken delivery of left a big hole in my wallet.

Now, I've weighed a few factors and come up with a figure of [b]£330[/b]. Not interested in trades, thanks.

Would prefer not to courier it but I'm sure we can work something out if that's your only option. Can be collected from Enfield or Hertfordshire during the week or somewhere in Essex at the weekend. If it's not too far out of my way, no charge. If it is, then a little toward fuel would be kindly appreciated.

Sold pending payment. If anyone's keeping tabs, it went in 8 minutes. Snatched out my hand so fast I'm counting my fingers, just in case.

If it hadn't been Mothers' Day I could have had this!...
Too busy delivering cups of tea and spreading toast to order.
