Sam,

I see you've used the "tongue of dog" method to sand down the fiddle. Works very well too.

I'm impressed by the work.  I'm even more impressed by the dog ears.  What a magnificent pair!

Here`s one I put on e-bay,
White Stratocaster copy inspired by guitars of Ritchie Blackmore & Yngwe Malmsteen.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Scalloped-fingerboard-Strat-style-guitar_W0QQitemZ180306291944QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item180306291944&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

I also have a black David Gilmour style Strat copy for £120, a natural butterscotch Tom Delonge style Strat copy with Seymour Duncan JB for £140 and a reworked Squier Telecaster with neck humbucker for £150. All are built from new or recyled e-bay purchases and are in effect, new instruments. All guitars have had frets levelled, recrowned and polished and tremolos where fitted are modified for improved return to tune and reduced string breakage.

I've always wanted to try a scalloped neck, can't justify bidding at the moment though, good luck with the auction.

Hi all

I'm selling one of these - http://www.epiphone.com/default.asp?ProductID=50&CollectionID=6

Bought, in a fit of madness - whilst I had an annual bonus burning a hole in my pocket, and having seen Gary Moore live & playing a 'real' antique Gibson version - about 2 years ago from Dawsons in Manchester.  They are now discontinued - but are a well respected and positively reviewed guitar - and I'm selling mine, only because a) I don't play it, and b) my lady wife insists I get rid of some of the musical stuff which is filing up my office at home.

It has been out of the case about 6 times and is immaculate - with a Hiscox case.

Cost £349 + £79 for the case.

It should be played - it's a lovely guitar and sounds fantastic ( check out this guy on YouTube : http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=CJlDDckBqeo).  

I have pictures which I will share with any interested parties - please IM me.

I'm looking for a sensible offer from a good home!

Just what you want for your Xmas stocking!!!!!

Thanks

Try "Cash Converters" in Banbury, they had some in recently, plus other assorted hi-fi stuff - Good quality as well, unlike the Birmingham outlets!

Hello, musos!

One pair of good quality Meinl wooden congas, 10" and 11", are up for grabs. They are in perfect playing condition and have only a few scratches in the varnish - see photos.

Buyer collects from West Dartmoor, I'm looking for offers in the region of 60 quid (to include a cuppa on collection  8-)  ).

Hello fellow pickers & pluckers

I'm reduced to operating a one-in one-out policy with my unfeasibly large instrument collection.Or move to a bigger house, hmmm there's a thought

Anyway to make room for 2 new arrivals I'm prepared to kiss goodbye to these

A Countryman octave mandolin, or maybe a mandola. The freeted string length is 20.25 inches in old money. It tunes from the top down A-D-G-C  It's in good nick, totally acoustic, plays well and deserves a better mando technique than I possess. I'd be swayed by offers approaching £100

A very cool Maholo Flying-Vee ukulele in black with a white matching shaped gig bag. Mint condition. £20 ono

I'll sell separately or for a discount if someone buys both

I can't figure out how to attach pictures. If anyone is interested PM me and I'll email you a photo

That's probably because you need to have made 10 posts before you can attach a picture, Vince Cheesy

I have decided to sell my Ovation Baladeer which I have had from new in 1986 (USA made). Just been set-up and frets dressed by Nevada Music of Portsmouth, new Newtone strings plus pick up serviced. Hard case included.

Before it goes on Ebay, does anyone want to IM me with a sensible offer?

Hi all,

I have for sale a Vintage Mixer.(this is not a mixer/amp!)

MM Electronics 8/2. Tatty, as you can see, but it works OK. This could be run as a four output stage monitor mixer, buy running 8 channels from line out on a main mixer, mixing to Pan rt, Pan left, aux out, and reverb out, then into powered monitors (not included).

£50.00, buyer collects from Worthing
