ALL SOLD/TRADED: PRS S2 McCarty 594, SE Hollowbody II Piezo, Warwick Pro series $$ Corvette
What's Hot
I'm consolidating a few guitars into an ES-335 type, so here’s a few listings.
I'm based in Yeovil/South Somerset but I'm regularly in E.London too most weeks so I could meet in-between or somewhere (relatively) near (i.e. vaguely along the A303, M3, M25).
2021 PRS S2 McCarty 594 w/PRS gigbag in faded smokeburst or somesuch. Again, available either in stock form for
£1,000 + post. This has now been returned to stock (cream plastics, original bridge p'up) ahead of a probable trade-in on Dec 29th! 7lbs 10oz
PRS SE Hollowbody II Piezo, sunburst £600Bought from Peach in January, incl. hardcase and amber lightshade knobs. A great guitar that is only going to fund the ‘upgrade’ to a fancier semi-hollow; the piezo is far more usable than I expected, and I plan on having a similar system in more guitars going forwards.
*Further details and pics to be added*
Warwick Pro-series (German) $$ Corvette, £900
I’ve had this for a good few years now, and while it covers a lot of ground it really doesn’t get used much at all so it should go to a more worthy home. This one has an open-pore satin finished Ash body, with an Ovankgol & Wenge neck and fingerbord. Active MM pickups, 2-band EQ, level, and blend, as well as coil split and series/parallel options for each pickup. Includes a rockbass gigbag and some spare string sets.
*Further details and pics to be added*(SOLD) Harley Benton (LP) DC-Junior FAT in Faded Cherry- This one's been upgraded/modded with a new wraparound bridge, CTS 500k pots, sprague caps, and a Vanson A5 dogear P90 in place of the stock Roswell stacked one. Unbelievable quality for this price-point, and includes a figured ebony board too. The Jr weighs just 6lbs 15oz, and all of the original parts are included. £140+post SOLD
(SOLD) 80s Greco LP Custom (EGC 68-60 Mint Collection series) w/OHSC - I go back and forth over selling this, as it's just a great LP in every respect. Long-tenon neck joint, medium C neck profile, 22.5mm deep at the nut, 9lb 12oz, split diamond headstock inlay, ebanol fingerboard, (new) bone nut, gotoh hardware (note: de-golded), and an SD59/JB set. What's not to like?

*edit* The thing on the Greco’s headstock is a silly subtle ‘tribute’ to Adam Jones’ main Silverburst that he plays on Stage - it’s just a blind-spot mirror lightly tacked on there, and yes, 100% removable without damaging the finish
(SOLD) 2019 Gibson Explorer, antique natural w/OHSC. Available either as stock for
£1,200, or in its current 'enhanced' guise with the WD BWBWB 30-deg pickguard, and a pair of 80s SD 59/JBJ pickups, and all stock parts (i.e. BB2/3 set, WBW pickguard) for
£1,350 Note: this one has a 22mm neck at the nut, and is around 8.5lbs, I'll get it on the scales to confirm.

My trading feedback - I'm a good egg
@Stickyfiddle, the neck on the Explorer is a comfy 22mm at the nut, and otherwise a fairly typical C profile.
I've been sorting through my spares drawers and found an unused gold ABR-1 (sung-il), and the original gold stoptail and studs for the Greco. I'd forgotten that I'd swapped that one out for an AllParts aluminum version, so they're available to be swapped out with the chrome parts that are on there now if anyone was thinking of re-golding this! I also have a set of nickel Grover 18:1 tuners from long ago* if you don't happen to like the Gotoh keystones - happy to swap those over too.
*no idea how old, but not 'new'

It’s working now
^ highlighting these two as the finish and figure changes a lot with the light levels, it's a lovely piece of mahogany
