CamdenRob Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) Picked this up about a month ago new, it's a wonderful player with a huge variety of sounds. I'd rather not be parting with it, truth be told, but I've got [s]a serious Sandberg California VM 5 (Natural) itch[/s] an impending house move and need to raise some funds / make some room. Here is a video of me playing it, only video camera audio but the rough gist comes across. [media]http://youtu.be/ARYBA3uPAEU[/media] As new condition (see pics) Taking a bit of a hit on this one, considering I bought it new a month or so back, as I need to raise some funds. Pick up only I'm afraid. Anyone around the Camden area is welcome to pop over one evening and try it out. I still have the tags it came with and the original receipt and I'll throw in a Stagg gigbag as well.

CamdenRob Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Morning Bump... I may possibly withdraw this to be honest. I'd quite like to keep it, although I'd have to hide any future purchases from Mrs CamdenRob. Maybe trades. Anyone got a Mayones Jabba 4 there willing to part with for the G&L and some cash? I only really like the new white or sea foam green ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I'd prefer someone to collect it really to be honest... I'm in the midst of a house move at the moment with boxes and stuff everywhere. I'm so disorganized that if I was to box it up for a courier there's a possibility you might end up with a table lamp / some crockery or the missus delivered instead...
