    Now gone to a new home 😊

    Mrs S and I had eaten dodgy onion pakoras the night before and were taking it in turns to go to the toilet. I remember most of it - recorded most of it on my betamax video machine and still got the tape somewhere. At the time I thought it was utterly brilliant. Still do tbh. For all sorts of reasons 1985 was a magical year for me and I will always have the fondest memories.

    Harley Benton Shorty does. I bought one when they came out and it blew me away - I don't know how it is possible to make a bass that is so good for the price of a night out. The tone, through my set-up, was very similar to the gorgeous woody tone of P bass in Santana's Europa. Out of preference for a bit more bite I changed the stock pickup to a Tonerider and it is now awesome. I have sold off most of my basses, including an MIJ Mustang, but keeping the HB Shorty for my Precision flavoured moments.

    Sold a Trace Elliot eq thingy in the easiest of transactions. Marvellous

    Easy deal with Jimmy who bought my Mustang bass. And clearly a man of taste as he kept the white pick guard 😁

    Super easy deal with Joel bought some IEMs. Royal mail let the side down, of course, but alls well that ends well 😁

    Thanks Stew.

    Price dropped to just £300 collected from Benfleet in Essex, 20 mins east of the Dartford crossing along the A13. I could theoretically meet half way if not too far, even deliver for the cost of fuel within reason. Absolutely no couriers - against my better judgement I sent some stuff recently and it only went according to plan once - I have dropped the price to tempt people into a road trip!

    Thank you Sergio!

    ... and Sergio barely had time to get back home when he was here again, this time buying my Gibson Les Paul Jnr DC. Really accomodating about timing and such a lovely guy!

    It isn't worth time, effort, hassle or expense of posting. But it should give you a nudge towards trawling through rifle cases to find one that fits.
  12. Paul S
    Elementary question but does using a wireless kit remove the risk?
  13. Paul S
    I have something almost exactly the same - forget the make but it is a case for a scoped rifle - that is precisely 102cm long inside that I used for my Hohners. It isn't worth posting but if you happen to be passing Benfleet, in Essex, you are welcome to it. Has nice egg-box foam lining, too.

    I use these for my shorties: https://www.thomann.co.uk/thomann_gigbag_deluxe_egitarre.htm#bewertung They offer very good protection. Handy if you are thinking of ordering anything else to spread the postage but, even with £10 added, they are excellent value.

    Magnus bought my Gibson SG in the most straightforward of sales. Nice friendly guy, great comms, a pleasure doing business
  16. Paul S
    I have a box I can put the hard case in so you could now arrange your own courier Not something I am prepared to do but happy to facilitate it.

    On hold

    Korg Pitchblack tuner. It works. Not much else to add! £30 posted to mainland UK. Welcome to try before you buy in Benfleet but it is a tuner and it works

    At the time these were the best budget IEM systems, certainly this never failed or had any issues whatsoever. Not been used for a while but before then every gig and rehearsal for 5 years. Comes with a pair of Shure SE 215 buds, upgraded lead, all in the handy original carry case. Here's the LD website guff: https://www.ld-systems.com/en/series/mei-1000-g2-series/4221/mei-1000-g2 All together this lot cost over £350, I'm asking £150 posted to mainland UK. Welcome to try beore you buy in Benfleet, Essex

    Boss WL-50. Performed for every gig and rehearsal without a glitch for 5 or more years until I switched to the Legato bugs. No box but here's the Boss page: https://www.boss.info/global/products/wl-50/ These are just shy of £200 new, I'm asking £100 £80 posted to UK mainland. Alternatively try before you buy in Benfleet, Essex.

    Trace Elliot Transit B pre-amp that has the famous Trace Elliot EQ, pre-shape, drive, compressor and tuner all in one pedal. heres the .pdf from Trace Elliot explaining it all https://www.traceelliot.com/resources/te-transit-b-om.pdf I found it incredibly useful to have all my favourite things in one off-the-peg unit and it glows green when you switch it on. What else could you ask for? I stuck a bit of luminescent tape to mark where the DI is. These are north of £270 new, this works and is in good nick so I am asking £150 posted to UK mainland. You are welcome to pop over and try before you buy.

    I have now sorted out some boxes in the loft so if you want to arrange your own courier I will pack the bass up in it's hard case nice and tight in a cardbox box
  23. Paul S
    Thanks John

    Decided to price this more competitively considering the condition - now £500.

    Hate the stupid sport, merely a brain fart. Anyway, I'll see your ford and raise you a well. Whatever his name, I saw him with the band a couple of times (before he died, obvs!) and he always had his elbows out like that so I can only assume he practiced on the double neck all the time! Last time he also - quite annoyingly - played the bass line to Hold Your Head Up wrong. Dummmdummmdummm dum dum instead of Dum dum dum dummmdummm.
