Great work again Gary. 👍

Superb! Great work.

A beautiful bass. Congratulations to you, fabulous work.

That’s a shocker 😡. I think I’ll message him too EDIT - It now appears to have been pulled

Well I bagged the Gillingham one, it arrived today and very nice it is too. In great condition and sounds fab. Has anyone ever gigged with a couple of these? I think they'd do the job pretty well (small gigs or larger gigs with PA support).

Sold a head to Nigel. Prompt payment and great communication throughout. Trade with confidence. 👍 Many thanks again.

Very nice. I bought my daughter an Alvarez acoustic a couple of years back. Lovely guitars.

'62 everytime. I recently purchased another Steve Harris precision (Blue Sparkle) after regretting selling the first one I had a few years ago. Again I've replaced the stock SPB1 with a CS '62 just as I did with the first one I had. To my ears it just sounds far better, has a lovely break up quality to it and really comes into its own in a band mix.

Yes, I've noticed that. An original (non-fan) AH250 SMX just sold for £200.

Another day, another great deal concluded with Gary. Many thanks again.

Compact and bijou. Good to see the head's still being put to good use 👍

I'd like to give one of these a go for a small home setup. There seems to be very little info available. I have several old brochures from around the time with the BLX combos in but the 1 x 10" cab doesn't appear in any of them.

Apologies for very belated feedback. I sold Gary a couple of pickups a while back. An extremely smooth transaction with great communication thoughout. Trade with confidence. 👍

There are a surprising number of players who do this. I think the theory used to be that left-handed players could only get hold of right-handed basses when they started playing, so therefore just spun basses around and played them left-handed ‘upside down’. Or of course he just felt that he wasn’t being challenged enough with the more orthodox string arrangement. 😁

Me too ☹️

I know where it's gone because he sent me the labels with the address on it. As I've said I have documents stating all addresses, contact details and proof of collection, along with pages of email correspondance through ebay. I also have the tracking details which work, so hat's off to him if he's built a spoof TNT site. Anything over and above that such as damage etc could happen regardless of whether I arranged the courier or he did.

I have a document that was signed by both me and the courier driver when the the parcel was collected, along with the tracking details. Both were sent through along with the parcel labels.

I have just had exactly the same situation. A chap from Germany was absolutely in love with a guitar I had for sale on eBay. I’d listed in the auction as collection only but he got in touch to say he’d buy if I changed my mind about shipping. So I suggested a compromise. I would be willing to securely package it up, if he was willing to arrange his own courier and insurance. So that’s what we’ve done. We discussed the best day for collection, I sent him the dimensions and weight of the parcel and he sent me the labels from the courier. All good.

I’m on TB and have found people to be very helpful. There’s a wealth of knowledge to be found just as there is on BC. One forum may cover some subjects more than the other so it’s great to have two great resources. I’ve read some threads on there that have turned pretty nasty, but there are some people out there who just live for that. To my mind BC is nowhere near as bad but there are people even here who just seem to post negative comments at every opportunity. People have differing views but how some choose to put those views across is questionable.

Nice work 👍

Agreed. Someone has told him they're rare and so now thinks it's worth a fortune. Rare doesn't necessarily equal sought after or valuable.
