Hi all, I've just taken this in trade and need to liquidate it to raise the final few quid for a new build! This is a PRS Se EG H/S/S Strat in excellent condition, plays and sounds superb. These are not overly common and make a really very good alternative to a Fender strat. It is at least on par with a Mex strat, if not better to be honest. Tobacco Burst finish, PRS dot 'Moon' inlays, tremolo Bridge. It's a set neck so feels like a US PRS. I don't have a hard case for it, but I can post it if need be, I'll stick it in a gig bag and get some card board and bubble wrap together to keep it secure, unfortunately as no courier seems to insure instruments without it costing a hideous amount it will be sent at the buyers risk. Collection (socially distanced) from Basildon, Essex is fine. £350 collected, add £15 for UK postage. Any questions, just ask!

The kit is fine, for me and my purposes it's more than enough for a good while! I picked up a different, throne type, stool and added a Gibraltar double kick pedal. So as it stands it owes me £375 including the kit, throne and pedal. My Roland 60w cube is perfectly fine as a small monitor when not using headphones so there was no need to buy a separate one. All in I think this option was the best option, far cheaper that new and far far cheaper than Roland. The mesh heads feel tight and responsive, maybe a little more bouncy than an acoustic kit. It feels like good value for what was paid and you can't say fairer than that! Been tring to put in 30-60 mins practice a day after work, still very much enjoying it!

Every person here, with the exception of a few new comers that came to the party because of Mick and his scamming ways, is a legitimate person with mostly years of posts and activities on the site. Mick has proven himself on many many occasions to say absolutely anything and everything to make himself seem legitimate, he is not. The history of documented illegal action undertaken by Mick is quite staggering. The best thing you can do is raise a police report, raise it with Action Fraud and believe nothing Mick tells you.

Well, it turns out that in fact not all humans are 100% awful! The second item arrived today, and not only was it in almost unused condition, the sender also included a set of unused Zildjian Travis Barker sticks! Considering I only paid £10 for the case, that was remarkably kind of them. There are some good eggs out there, not everyone is a Mason! 😂

One item has arrived safe and sound! If the other also arrives then it will prove to me that not all humans are terrible!!

Though he looked familiar...

You can get a new one from GuitarGuitar for a few pence more. Don't be fooled by the name!!

Don't make me press one of those buttons...

I did check that they weren't 'Stone Cutters'...

I've just bought two items from Gumtree both from different sellers, paid for both via bank transfer, let's see if either actually arrive!! 😂 Livin' on the edge me!

I'm left handed and I started playing bass way back when left handed, then about 3 months in I made the choice to go right handed as there were far far FAR more righties out there than lefties. Definitely glad I made that decision!!

At the end of the day, if their lead time is 3 years, it's FAR better that they are upfront and honest with their customers rather than certain other companies that claim a 6 month lead time and take three times as long. If you know the score when you sign up then you can't fault the company for being honest.

Obviously I meant the wash basket... 🙄

I did look at the Alesis Crimson II myself. It got some good reviews, however the reviews on the Millenium MPS-850 were very convincing. I've now played it for a few hours and I must say that it feels far better, and sounds far better than you'd expect to get at this price point. I did also read that the Alesis stuff is made in the same place as the Fame and Millenium kits, so that would suggest a lot of parts crossover but probably with better chassis for the pads.
