edited July 2019 in Guitars £
Having reached the conclusion that six strings are two more than my brain can manage, and high frequencies in general are not for me, reluctantly up for sale are the two beautiful guitars I got in the past few years. Both in great condition, played sparingly at home only.

1. G&L USA CUSTOM SHOP INVADER PLUS

Bought from Schnozz on this very forum, here is a link to the original thread:

Comes with its own original hardshell case, certificate of authenticity, spare set of strings (10-46 Gauge Fender Pure Nickels) strap locks.
It was as new when I received, and it still is, indeed an incredible piece of gear most likely wasted on me.
Asking no more than what I paid for it:
£850 now £800, +£20 delivered to mainland UK.
Collection possible in London.


2. EPIPHONE ZAKK WYLDE LES PAUL CUSTOM PLUS BULLSEYE


Got this new from Macari's, now out of production as Mr Wylde decided to start his own guitar company.
Almost as new except for a slight ding on the side of the body (see pic), and some slight tarnishing starting to appear on the hardware.

Will listen to offers including trades/part trades – however I'm mostly interested in spicy effects and basses (yes!) at the moment, so most likely for sale only.

    I've owned Masterbuilt Charvels etc and that G&L Invader was just as good as any of them. I was considering buying it back, but I'm in Les Paul (and Bass) mode at the moment.

    Genuinely one of my favourite Guitars to date and I've had 8 G&Ls alone.

    Welcome to the forum!

    HELPFUL HINT: Search engines have more chance of bringing potential buyers to this Discussion if you include the names of the guitars in its title. :)

    Be seeing you.

    Loved the look of this guitar when Schnozz had it up for sale a couple of years back.
    I owned a couple of G&l USA Invader XL standards in the past and they were really great guitars. Still miss the blueburst ash body one to this day
