  1. This is rather heartbreaking for me, but unfortunately due to ongoing issues with my hands and an imminent operation, I am having to forego my guitar playing and as a result, my 3 week old Martin D28 is up for sale (fortunately I will still have enough dexterity to play bass, but the narrower string spacing is causing me major problems). The guitar is in absolutely immaculate condition and comes with an equally immaculate Martin hard case, 2 spare sets of Elixir Nanoweb strings, a leather strap and Kyser quick-change capo. Due to the condition of the guitar and the fact it is as new as it is, [b]I'm looking for £1,500[/b]- a £400 saving on a new one. I would consider trades for a mint condition Gibson Thunderbird, but would need at least £700-750 cash on this. I'd possibly consider trades for a Fender Custom Shop Bass. The guitar can be picked up from either Woking (weekends) or Bristol (weekdays). I'd rather not post but will if absolutely necessary.

  2. I've seen this, held it and had th e pleasure to play it. What a bass! Anyone looking for a wonderful one-off 'Ray, "Walk This Way" to coin a phrase (if you get what I mean )
  3. For Sale is a 2 week old Mono M80 Hard/soft gigbag for a Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar (pictured with my Martin D28 in it- not included!) It's just over 2 weeks old and unused outside of the house. Unfortunately it's no longer required so up for sale at £130 inc postage - a saving over over £20 on a new one.

  6. [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1432646429' post='2783526'] Scared to ask as it's a 4x10, but how heavy is this? [/quote] Just under 23kg according to Fender. My arms think that's about right too
  7. For sale is my recently put together Pedalboard, all of which was bought new over the last 4 months or so. As a result, all the gear is in absolutely mint condition (unless stated) and comes with the original packaging. All of the pedals have velcro on the bottom (I'm good to you!) and all prices include delivery: [font=inherit][size=4]- Pedaltrain 2 Pedalboard plus original hardcase- well used but in very good nick (complete with keys) but without the brackets to attach the power unit underneath.

  8. [size=4][color=#000000][font=Times]For sale is my much-loved Fender Blues Deville Reissue Valve Combo in lovely retro tweed livery. It's the 4x10 version and sounds absolutely sublime (an earth shattering 60w).[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]It's in overall good condition apart from some scuffs on the corners and quite a nasty ding on the front. It's only a flesh wound and doesn't affect stability or sound at all, but I guess is a good endorsement of a super combo.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]It comes with the original foot switch and cover and was has been super-reliable in the time I've owned it.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]I'm looking for £400 picked up from either Woking (weekends) or Bristol (weekdays). I'm also happy to travel to meet.[/font][/color][/size] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4080.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4079.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4081.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4082.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4083.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4084.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times][size=1][url="http://s945.photobucket.com/user/nwmurphy/media/IMG_4085.jpg.html"][/url][/size][/font][/color]
  9. For sale is my 3 week old Mono M80 Vertigo gigbag for electric guitar (not bass). It hasn't even left the house as it is no longer required. As a result, it's virtually brand new. These really are superb pieces of kit and I use them for my basses and acoustic guitars. Yours for £110 (currently selling for over £150 new) and can be posted (£5 postage cost) or picked up from either Woking (weekends) or Bristol (weekdays).
  10. Just strung mine with my obligatory TI's and dropped the action a bit. Very happy
  11. [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1432235696' post='2779622'] Er... sorry? I hope you're enjoying yours as much as I am mine. The weight is a bit of a wake up call after my incredibly light weight 5 stringers and I'm experimenting with straps, but the string spacing/set up are just made for my right hand, I don't think I've plucked so fast, so accurately. If it doesn't sound 'just right' with my two bands at rehearsals I'm going to be annoyed (and not a little surprised). [/quote] I don't find mine is that heavy, probably around 9lbs. I do think they need to be sling lower the normal for me on a strap in order for it to sit right. Not quite Hooky, but certainly not Mark King either When I can get to my amp, I need to adjust the front pickup as its noticeably quieter than the treble pickup. I had this on a previous Ric and although I really like the fizzy sound they produce together, I'd like a little bit more bass too.
  12. [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1432216320' post='2779298'] I bought the Fireglo one last Friday, they're a bit nice aren't they? Congrats. They have others within the company, get one sent down. [/quote] That was my other choice of colour I must admit, it was your NBD thread that sealed my fate
  13. Quite 50's P Bassy to me. Not a massive handful but certainly slightly deeper than the current U.S. Fenders but not as wide. Weight-wise I'd guess around 9lbs. I love the sound this thing makes with both pups on full and the tone up. Very fizzy
