Just sold Rob my cherished GUS G3. Easy to deal with. Great communication. Will happily deal with again

That's just made me decide to pack it all in. There I was quite happy playing root, 5th, 7th and now I see this knowing I'll never have the time (or ability) to get anywhere near it

Only just seen this. Bugger. Can't make it now. Another time

Just sold an Ibanez RB850 to Paul. Great communication, easy and instant payment. Will happily deal with again anytime. Good bloke

Great exchange, Parker Fly for his Jazz. Easy, great communication. Will happily deal with again

Well done. I've just been asked to join a 70's Funk band. As my roots are in blues/rock I initially turned it down, but having practiced some of the songs (disco inferno, play that funky music etc) it's a really fun challenge so think I'm going to go for it. Nothing ventured
