It's a strange world - the guitar business!

First of all, I am sorry for those who were not able to take advantage of my 'Big Sale'. I know it was odd but I was going under because of over stock which was just not selling. I bought extensively when FJ announced their 15% price increases but no-one wanted what I had despite their being the the best sellers over the previous year. I was fortunate that another dealer bought my entire stock other than those that Basschatters managed to buy in time.

This has solved my cash flow problem so I will continue to trade but will probably be altering my model slightly which will involve a famous West London retail outlet some more.

Because of the loyalty that I have experienced from this forum, I will offer substantial discounts over the next month - these will be individually based because of the current financial climate; but they will be worth having. When I have established a sustainainable price list, I will offer Basschatters an ongoing discount.

I thank you again for your continued support and hope I can continue to provide the same.

Malcolm

I may be inclined to come visit you one day and perhaps take you up on this basschatter discount once you get back on your feet :)
good luck![/quote]

I'm based in Staines but visiting will do no good as I will not be carrying stock - I can get you anything you want from Japan. Having stock that no-one wanted was was what almost put me out of business. I had everything but wrong colour, wrong neck etc so I will now only get to order. I will still honour try before you buy but you have to know what you want and order it. FJ prices and choices are just to big to carry the stock.

P.S. It wasn't a couple of days - more like 6 months

Posted on the "So long and thanks" thread as well but just in case ..
Glad you have not gone totally...

If you are still reading this can you help identify this one as the seller doesn't know what model it is.
