Bought on the forum in September, very portable EUB from the highly-respected (and no longer manufacturing) Azola. Planned for use at a series of gigs in Scotland that ended up being cancelled ... and I also have a Takamine TB10 as a portable DB substitute. Don't need both although maybe the Takamine should be the one to go??? Full 3/4 sized DB neck, with piezo pickup (with front facing volume control). Comes with side rest, Innovation Silver Slap strings (plus original La Bella strings) and gigbag. Side dots on neck are stickers I applied which can be removed easily. I paid £1250 and will sell for a bargainous £999. Pickup or meet close to SW13 (London south of Hammersmith Bridge) preferred.

I vote for the mint (stock?) scratchplate in pic 3. Or gold anodised, as suggested above. Afraid the tort doesn't work for me Nick -

**SOLD** - Sunburst Ernie Ball Musicman Short Scale Stingray (USA version)

If you play a Rick you will know what these are. A drop in replacement for part of the bridge pickup assembly which allows you to (a) do away with the pretty but useless hand rest (b) do so without risk of your picking hand falling in to the sharp edged 'hole' surrounding the pickup and (c) while providing a neat built in thumb rest. I am only selling as I bought two, one with raised thumb rest, one with a thumb 'cove' (inset/hollow thumb rest). I prefer the latter. This was £46 new from Rickysounds, so £33 posted seems fair. PS, first 3 pics of the for sale item, pic number 4 is a stock photo to show how it looks in situ
