  1. if you think this is bad, I’m trying to sell a 2x12 Fender combo for £30 and I’ve been messed around by literally tens of people already. “I’ll collect mate…” When? —-silence—-
  2. I agree. I am guess this will end up in a rehearsal studio or something.
  3. Still here…! Please save me from this beast.
  4. These are wonderful instruments for the price.
  5. Simandl sold! Others all still here.
  6. Cut price to £450 plus postage!
  7. Last week I had a pair of £120 walking boots split at the heel after using them for about 4 hours. No receipt or box, so I traipsed into Go Outdoors and wasn’t hopeful… The first person I saw (under 20) grabbed a new pair, took me to the counter and introduced me to to the manager (under 25) who checked my details, looked me in the eyes and apologised and swapped them. Organisational culture and individual responsibility is important. Sometimes a good honest apology works wonders.
  8. Time waster never bothered to come round, so still for sale. Please save me from it!!!
  9. It’s like funk with all the soul taken out.
  10. If youngsters have grown up with it, the fault lies with the generation raising them. In this instance, age is less of a factor than attitude. I’d also suggest the guy in the end of the phone is the one enacting the duplicitous scam from the owner(s) - themselves likely to be older people. So feel sorry for the employee, blame the boss! Hope the OP gets the item. Let us know what it is and perhaps one of us can lend it to you.
  11. I believe it’s a Silver Jubilee can rated at 300 watts. I can’t drag it out as it’s huge and in my music room.
  12. Now £475. This includes a Fender gigbag.
  13. I really need this gone by Thursday so it’s £80 now.
  14. I’ve got a box now and can post this!
  15. I’ve been asked the weight and it’s (approximately) 4.2kg.

  17. Here is my Markbass Micromark 801 combo. This is an amazing little lightweight amp and has served me well for a little while. I was the original owner from new, but I don't have the box anymore. It's in perfect working condition. This has been relegated now I've got a Trace Elf and a Barefaced cab, so it's for sale. I can send this and am happy to do so, but I'd prefer collection if we could. Pics below, let me know if you need more. £175 now. Postage just £10.
  18. Here is my lovely shortscale Squier Jaguar Bass with the fantastic matching headstock. This is, like all my gear, in great condition! I bought this (believe it or not) from a 14-year old girl who played it for an hour a week for a couple of months. There are some marks on the back on the finish which could probably polish out. All in excellent working order and strung with D'Adarrio Chromes (which are £45 a set). Can post!
  19. This is a lovely condition 1962 Fender jazz reissue from the Mexican Fender factory. This is in excellent condition with just one small blue mark on the top horn. Fender specs are included in the picture below. The truss rod works well, the neck is straight and the action is excellent. It's a beautiful playing bass, but I already have 3 jazz basses and I have to clear some stuff out. The frets are in excellent order and are the pencil-thin vintage variety, so it's a fast one. I paid £500 which I think was really fair and I can sell for the same price. Now £425. This comes with a soft case and I have a box to post it if you'd like to take that option. ition, with only one blue mark visible o
  20. This is a used condition 1980s Marshall 4x10. It all works (can be seen working) and is incredibly loud. This is a really solid, sturdy and heavy pro cabinet. This piece of rock and roll history will need to be collected from Brislington and can be yours for just £99. I bought this recently with a Jubilee Head (which I'm keeping). This is just too big and heavy for me, and it's taking up too much space. Collection only, from Bristol please!
  21. If you’re a self employed musician it’s highly likely you’ll fall under the trading allowance threshold. If you do declare yourself as a musician on insurance, you can claim back a proportion of that as an expense. Personally, I’ve never declared to my car insurer that I play music, in the same way I don’t tell them that im a serious cyclist, love running or am a stone overweight, because it’s nkt relevant. https://www.litrg.org.uk/latest-news/news/211202-are-you-using-trading-allowance-correctly
  22. Selling my Martin Drednought Junior. This little beauty was made in Mexico and has recently been set up by the amazing Simon at SiCo setups. The guitar is in excellent condition with a barely noticeable scuff mark on the top. Comes with the Martin soft case, also in excellent condition. I can’t and won’t post this so it’s collection and a cuppa in Bristol. £399 takes it away, and I’ll be sad to see it go but I now have a handmade Kinkade guitar that blows all my others out the water.
