Open to trades on both.  I am particularly interested in a good quality smaller-bodied electro-acoustic.  I'd prefer guitar and cash, rather than a super high end against the PJE.

PJE Macon Singlecut 2018 in Blue Burst - £3,500 TRADED


Superb guitar here - but I just don't bond with single cuts and the neck is a tad big for me. It’s not huge but I’m picky.  Open to trades on something more modern.

In excellent condition.  The two volume pots are 100% functional but have some lateral movement on the shafts.  Action is just over 1mm at the 12th on the high E, so plays very fast.  Has a couple of minor marks of note, one which appears to be under the finish but it's hard to tell.  There's also a little nick that I suspect could be buffed out near the neck pick-up.

Comes with case and certificate.  Weighs in at a touch over 7lb.

Can be posted at cost.  Collect from Carlisle, Cumbria.

    Carillion Polaris 6 in Sapphire Burst (2015)

    A truly unique guitar with a lovely set neck.

    In great condition with no discernible dings. Sounds absolutely tremendous with the Crawlers handling shred/metal/rock/blues with ease. The 6-way switch does coil tapping very nicely and it's super-convenient.

    Will be sent in a brand new Hiscox case.

    - Quilted Maple top.

    - Black Limba body.

    - Flamed Maple/Rosewood laminate neck.

  • @TheGASMan It’s a difficult one, as I do think there’s an element of shape preference and visuals. Having owned numerous, I don’t think they’re hugely different, aside upper fret access (still good, due to heel). Pickups split so it’s very versatile, lovely smooth maple neck, etc.

    I’m going to give a free bump for this.
    Macons are amongst the best singlecuts you can buy. They don’t lose face to a Huber and smash anything by Gibson in my view. There’s a similar colour in music street approaching £6k.
    Theyre rareish used which tells you all you need to know about how good they are.
    This really should have sold by now
