  1. Broken headstock, tidied up.
  2. Gavin sold me some strings, which arrived promptly in sensible packaging. I'd be pleased to deal with him again. Thanks Gavin!
  3. Nice to see one that's not black! These have nice tone; to me they sound almost like an electric guitar stepped down an octave, very rich but not very woody. Caution needed when changing strings though - it's easy to strip the thread in the head, because it's a steel screw into the aluminium...
  4. I bought a power supply from Andy. Quick, uncomplicated transaction, and I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks Andy!
  5. I bought Carl's Zoom pedal; the second time we've traded. All is well and I'll happily trade with him again. Thanks Carl!
  6. The seller ribbetingfrog is probably a member here. Certainly someone based in Manchester area has that BC username.
  7. I assume the "graphite" nut is made of powdered graphite in some matrix - some sort of epoxy resin perhaps? If that's right, then the matrix might deteriorate with age.
  8. I'm still not convinced by the pictures, personally. I think that might be the last time I consider buying from eBay.
  9. I have a funny feeling this is an AI-generated picture. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126579639544?itmmeta=01J2YXRVF2MY0C5AYMDGX8TH28&hash=item1d78bc04f8:g:6oIAAOSwgl9mlp1S I suspect Ebay's whole business model will collapse as soon as scammers work out how to do this properly.

    I bought a couple of pedals from Tim. Prompt, good packaging, all as advertised. I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks Tim
  11. I bought some strings from Daniel. All went well and I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks Daniel
  12. Damn it,. I keep forgetting to change the title... Now I'll have to leave it. Bah, humbug.
  13. I had one of these, and I regret getting rid of it. And Phil is a fine musician and a nice guy.
  14. Mm. Suspicious, for sure. Why wouldn't you sell it for the higher price?
  15. I have one which was reboarded without frets, by its then owner philw of this parish. It's going nowhere. You can hear it here (Phil playing):
  16. The blue ones are much prettier IMO
  17. No clue about this one. Anyone know? There are several ads, so this may not be "used" or "vintage". https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/405074815505?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20231107084023%26meid%3D098e094b7afc4ba2872ec5e301e6e2b4%26pid%3D101875%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D176451606755%26itm%3D405074815505%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D4429486%26algv%3DSimplAMLv11WebTrimmedV3MskuWithLambda85KnnRecallV1V2V4ItemNrtInQueryAndCassiniVisualRankerAndBertRecallWithVMEV3EmbeddedAuctionsCPCAutoWithCassiniEmbRecallManual%26brand%3DVintage&_trksid=p4429486.c101875.m1851&itmprp=cksum%3A405074815505098e094b7afc4ba2872ec5e301e6e2b4|enc%3AAQAJAAABgP9d%2BMZSXlztIfYFu3kI%2B7ft0VcQix7rTrUVdiJwc2upzwLfM%2B2UEqu0ZqdXqu2qWe6up6s9MSEY%2BWikIwEh4xLkizL%2BG%2Fyhg6cdW4xfkbb75erVQBYYISNxGN1au%2BE0eJ778JYYSAyLJRupNiZky3B2UHpMsaEp7JRgW9fuueOszPlG9eCPE4mSzJx4EejjZE0v1xx3s4HgKujjhEB3s6kdrBGms27nBOE8uaX7mmYUC%2BfE8qUxFWj8zQj3krJzad%2BvgGelTuGD25wKpAxqtEQxdO0D4K%2BE38kKj6Sqs5xZXa%2Fu7B3JOKVZiY9u%2BeAkbTcJTKOR7BbwoqEUFj9BOEMa71bO0KQZ103kwpRm3D4RV7YfIjwUQnT82sUM456P9xWTCtbJDqyqsNazXjgTBOFHu287hyWF4WsK9CeFw4aVtcAyxVS5qQ0taXmJFcNq5SVl78vd5KKhH1LJwUxG3HeE0oPIzLYRUBvsVt3s0fMM8Y6MOmWbfYQO08Bck95%2BRg%3D%3D|ampid%3APL_CLK|clp%3A4429486&itmmeta=01J229A9YZXBDKCR68G1FG5TZX
  18. I bought strings and two nuts from Gareth. This is probably the sixth time we've traded, and he remains as he always has been - one of the good guys. Thanks Gareth!
  19. Yamaha BEX 4, if you can find one to fit your budget. AndyTravis has one for sale at the moment; whether he'd ship to Denmark I don't know, but it's worth asking.
  20. "The 6-string configuration makes for a comfortable fit ..." There is no way I'd deal with this idiot.
  21. Sold, apparently for £500.
  22. I like that a lot. Sadly, I have no use for it, and I find acoustics uncomfortable to play. GLWYS!
