[u]5 schaller M4 machineheads - 3 Left 2 right[/u] - i was gonna use them for a four string bass (2 a side) but they didn't fit anyway. they're used but in good condition. one of the left sided ones had a chip taken out of the paint work, which i painted over with nail varnish (not mine, i swear!) its on the bit that goes behind the headstock so not really an issue unless you go looking for it. its also a little more scratched than the others so as its one of the 3 left sided ones i was gonna leave it out anyway. i'll take some pics and try to get any damage to show up but i'm guessing it wont, as i say its not noticeable unless you're really looking for it. close up of the one that was damaged... yeah so i suck at photography. i have no patience for it whatsoever. [b]*SOLD*[/b][u]5 string bridge - Schaller 3-D5[/u] i think... the ones with the rollers... a few scratches on the bit under the saddles but other than that pretty good condition. [b]*SOLD*[/b] i'll get pics up asap, hopefully tonight, once i've found my camera. trade wise if anyone has a 4 string set of tuners, black or chrome, of similar value that aren't schallers get in touch. and same with the bridge, a four string schaller 3-D would be cool or any other 4 string bridge you have thats of equivalent worth. or just PM with offers of the money kind, and yeah paypal's fine.

i very nearly bought an acoustic guitar from these guys a couple of years ago because they were cheaper than anywhere else but when i went to pay it all got a bit confusing - basically when they took the payment they took it in two instalments a percentage (deposit?) there and then when i placed the order and then i guess they planned to take the rest of the fee when the item was despatched... my bank stopped the second payment and wrote to me saying there was odd account activity. so i tried using my girlfriends card (different bank) but had the same problem after a couple of weeks of messing about i bought it from somewhere in the uk for a little more. so not sure if that helps but its something to look out for, maybe that's a standard thing and I'm just a fool, or perhaps someone knows a way around these things? or maybe they've changed their policy in the last 2 years? who knows! but if you do order don't panic if your bank tells you about any strange account activity. both deposits were refunded, there was nothing dodgy going on.

J.[/quote] agreed. this is almost exactly what i'm after... except the colour... i know i said that about the grendel i bought off this very forum, but can i really have two red basses when i didn't even want one?! can i?!
