essexbasscat Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 If I had the money I'd have that Ducati off you ! (and possibly the Eggle too)
Golchen Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 I used to have an Eggle Vienna pro - superb guitar. I sold it after many years as I wanted a change but it was top quality. very good guitar brand.
wrinkleygit Posted September 3, 2011 Author Posted September 3, 2011 weekend bump as new project slipping from my grasp !!!!!!
Dodge Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 [quote name='wrinkleygit' post='1359118' date='Sep 1 2011, 07:11 PM']No guitar love bump????[/quote] That's really nice - I used to lust after those in the 90's. Probably a good job you're not a bit closer to me or I could be tempted.
spinynorman Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I had an early Berlin before I took up bass. It was fantastic, I wish my playing could have done it anything like justice. Lovely guitar bump.
wrinkleygit Posted September 10, 2011 Author Posted September 10, 2011 Bump for new trade option, might accept 5 string as p/x ( something like the paulman that shaggy put on here a while ago would be ideal ) mike b.
molan Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 I've got an LA Pro, great guitars. Keep threatening to sell it but like to have a 6 string 'in reserve' and these earlier Eggles really are top notch!
scalpy Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 My brother has one of these with the falling leaf in-lays. These guitars are nothing short of incredible. Like your dream girl/boy friend in many ways, absolutely gorgeous but an absolute animal in the right situation.
wrinkleygit Posted September 11, 2011 Author Posted September 11, 2011 quick sunday bump for any serious cash offer down in sunny devon
wrinkleygit Posted November 17, 2011 Author Posted November 17, 2011 New project sorted, Ducati also sold, bee bumpalula for trades 4/5 headless or any fretted fives, whatchya got ??
vmaxblues Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 Fancy a beautiful Warwick Masterman Custom 4 string fretted?
wrinkleygit Posted November 18, 2011 Author Posted November 18, 2011 Might be tempted, always had a soft spot for warwicks especialy if it has a neck similar to my old '93 thumb, tell me more or show me your wares, mike.
wrinkleygit Posted November 18, 2011 Author Posted November 18, 2011 Decided to pass on the fortress, cracking bass for someone else tho', mike.
Shaggy Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 [quote name='wrinkleygit' timestamp='1315667863' post='1368680'] Bump for new trade option, might accept 5 string as p/x ( something like the paulman that shaggy put on here a while ago would be ideal ) mike b. [/quote] Hey Mike - Loving that old Matchless! Current "ride" is a '72 Norton Commando 750 Roadster (when it's not p*ssing oil.....) Would have been quite tempted to trade the Paulman ( http://basschat.co.uk/topic/153472-withdrawn/page__p__1361326__hl__paulman__fromsearch__1#entry1361326 ) except that I've just kitted it out with the Roland GK pickup / V-bass system. Amazing bit of kit, but as a minimalist I'm not sure it's me yet....so may yet get in touch if you've still got this in a while Bump for a lovely guitar from a great luthier (just to be pedantic; I think it's a flame maple top, not quilt?)
wrinkleygit Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 Damn,never mind I'm in no hurry tho' so would be happy to put this on hold for a while to see how you get on with the roland, a backup 5er is what I would realy like .Used to have a 750 roadster some years ago, but the wet sumping drove me mad (until I fitted an oil tap combined with an ign switch on it) also the high fuel cons & small fuel tank was a pain, went like a scalded cat tho, great fun to ride, keep in touch, mike b.
