TRADES - for an amp only. 

I want a small home/studio high quality valve combo that has a small footprint, isn't heavy and has good clean headroom. Something akin to a Carr Mercury, Dr Z Maz 8, Swart, Morgan PR5 etc. Cash either way could be part of any trade.

I am not in the need of any guitars, larger amps, effects, acoustics.....that's why the Walsh and others are going as part of a major cull.

The Kavod is a sensational $2,500 Tele-style handmade guitar from Drew Walsh in the US, which I bought in July 2017.

In lovely firemist gold with a very tasteful subtle sparkle which is difficult to photograph and a truly sublime 5A neck.

More photos to follow to show current custom pickguard and 'natural' relic work....the guitar has been gigged and loved so it is not perfect!

It has just had a full professional setup by my Bristol-based full-time guitar expert Martin Bailey.

I would suggest a test drive and I'm in Chippenham close to the M4 not too far from Bristol, Bath and Swindon. I work in Hungerford so the guitar could be seen, but not played, there.

I'm selling the Walsh for half its original price, which I hope you'll consider fair.

    Thanks @Teyeplayer, a custom shop killer at a sensible price.

    So resonant that you can strike a chord, go to work for the day, and it'll still be ringing when you get home.

    Thanks @dominic and @NorthernPaul ;. It is a cracking guitar but like many of us I have a couple too many and I really need a small amp. 

    This may go shortly as I'm negotiating an amp swap as we speak....
