I gig very little now and I have another Brook that I play more often - so that is my reason for selling (oh plus the money!!)

Issy - try Chris Algar of Barleycorn Concertinas - he has a range of English, Anglo and Duets going from student to top-notch, all serviced and tuned. Nice chap and will buy back any concertina you get from him at the price you bought if you subsequently trade-up.

Still selling my Roland TD6k drums. Haven't put them on eBay yet as I haven't had the time, though almost identical kits have been going at about £700 (it's worth at least a grand), and the Yamaha professional stool is worth at least £100 second hand too.

Will need to pick up from Essex, and looking for offers in the region of £500 without the stool, and £550 with.

It's in perfect nick, and comes with an almost new mesh snare.

A close up of the controller and mesh pad, plus the *extremely* comfortable stool.

Hi All,

I have decided that i never use my 12 string guitar, Cry and offer it for sale. It is an EKO Jumbo, that i have had for about 35 years Shocked

I am trying to fund a new Mic for live work.



Edit: Hot linked images removed. Colin

It has a repair to the machine head, which was there when i got it...and is quite stable

It is showing a crack at the bridge,(between the White pegs), but this also seems to be stable,


And i discovered it has a small ding on the rear...

It also requires a good clean!

It is obviously not worth a fortune Roll Eyes, but does sound nice and full. Any offers  ?

I wouldn't like to post it, so any prospective buyer would have to collect, or arrange it to travel via mutual friends/folk network

Please PM me if you are interested

All the best,

Dave

Hi

I'm wanting to sell full size double bass and bow with carry case. Perfect condition apart from a bit of dust (the dust is from it only ever being played a couple of times). Would need to be collected from sheffield.  Looking for offers of @£250. If anyone wants an electric violin would sell both together for £300

I have a Richwood Bazouki for sale, it's similar to the ozark, hudson, trinity college, ashbury type.
Far east made with solid spruce top, dark stained maple (not solid) back'n'sides and a stained maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, decent sealed tuners. Pics available on request.
It's in good condition without any scratches or dings.
I'm in Swansea, S.Wales and would be looking for £120ono including a decent tribal planet padded gig bag.
I can post at the buyers expense here's my ebay feedback http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=paganskins&ftab=AllFeedback
I can put the sale through ebay for the buyers protection if necessary.

Hi

I'm planning to build one of these as a winter project : http://www.buildyourguitar.com/resources/lapsteel/

I need a few bits, and conscious that there are a few collectors and builders/customisers on here, I wondered if anyone has any of the following they would like to exchange for some good old fashioned cash?

A single coil pick up - tele or strat style would seem to do well.

A bridge - the plans suggest a Les Paul junior style, but as long as one can adjust the strings to a flat profile (for the 'steel'), I'm thinking it should be okay.

A set of tuners - LP style 6 x single would seem appropriate.

I've had a look on ebay, and there are plenty available, but I'm just looking for something cheap and cheerful for the prototype, before I build something in a more exotic wood, with better parts.

Have a scour around your workshop/shed and let me know.

Thanks

Hi Ian

I can let you have a couple of strat single coils.  They are a neck and middle pickup from a 70's Japanese Strat copy.  They are not bad.  YOU  might as well have both of them as you will have a spare if you bugger one up.  I think I have the pots with them, which you can have as well.  If you PM me your address and are prepared to cover postage* you can have them for nothing Cheesy  

SWMBO will be very pleased for me to reduce my collection of supposedly useless bits and bobs.

* Or buy me a pint at Cropredy next year.

Encore Electro Acoustic.
Good first guitar/acoustic with pickup if someone wants to be louder! It has a piezo under the saddle with a 2 slider EQ (volume & tone).
The saddle isn't the original - It didn't have one when I bought it a few years back and fitted this one, it could be a better fit, but it works! I have mainly kept this in alternative tunings, to save time when playing different things!
There are a few scratches/bumps, but nothing that is serious or affects the sound/playability of this guitar.
It currently has a set of Martin SP mediums on it, but they could do with a change.
Prefer if it was picked up...offers around £50?
more pictures here: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v617/ollythedolly/encore/
Any questions please ask
Olly.

Hello All,

I am looking for a mandolin (right handed) or a violin (full size) within a student budget. It's my final year at Uni and I have some tricks up my sleeve but finding it hard to get hold of the instruments relatively cheap. If anyone knows where would be a good place to look or indeed has one they want to get rid of please let me know.

I am also looking for an acoustic 4 string bass (right handed) for around £50-70, doesn't matter if it's not a very good one, it's for a friend who is learning and just wants to mess about on it and see if it's for her - must be acoustic though please Smiley

Thanks very much,

TG x

You can sometimes get semi-decent mandolins in Cash Converter (or similar) for a reasonable price.

I was going to suggest the guntree (or some such local institution) for a violin. If you buy secod hand you can usually find something a bit better than the plasticy things you can buy cheaply from music shops & there is usually no shortage of people selling them. Good luck  Smiley

Hi - new on here

I've found this nice electro acoustic on ebay. Just looking for a bit of advice really.

What do you all think? Worth a bid? It is rather nice....
