SOLD: Vintage Dan Armstrong London Guitar and Bass Bodies/Necks in three lots.

Also bear in mind guys I'm a sucker for old Gibson/fender if anyone fancies a trade

Does the bass come with the scratch plate?

xJonnysixstring

I have examples of about 4 different scratch plates around 6-10 of each so was aiming to split those equally between the three lots so more can be made.

Couple of questions 1. 'Constructed guitar' means what exactly? 2. I presume there are no pick ups anywhere in the lot? 3 . What could I expect To get as a £208 'shareholder'. I think I'm still in :-) Ps if Bowie had one, that'd good enough for me

xJonnysixstring

Constructed guitar is on of the six I have with neck and body attached, if you check out the original thread at the top there is lots of chat/options on pickups. As far as the "shareholder" option I will leave this to you guys to decide amongst yourselves.

Have to hurry you .... 

Thank you to those who have PM'd me.  We're still a long way short of having sufficient numbers to put a buying group together.   I'm aware that some people will have been away over the Bank Holiday weekend, and may not have responded yet.  I'm also aware that, although it's a nice idea, the build work needed is beyond most peoples' ambitions.  

If there are no more takers in the next 24 hours then I'm going to drop the idea.

Come on guys .....jump in on this and grab yourself a top flight bit of history for a mere £208 !

Just for info......the White bodies, are they under coated or is that a protective wrap kinda thing ?

It'll be a base (paint) coat, not a wrap that you could un-wrap.

I spoke with @Roland yesterday and a very nice chap he is too (: If any kind of buying consortium is going to happen he is the man to talk to, My preference is to sell in bulk so feel free to make an offer, Worst case is I say no thank you. I genuinely would love to see someone do this project justice, As I mentioned I would be interested in trades against guitars and cash adjustment either way if necessary. If not I'm happy to store them until either a suitable buyer emerges or I actually get time to turn them around myself. Either way its not a terrible situation to be in

xJonnysixstring

Temporarily withdrawn as I have had a very interesting development on this, Definitely one step closer to making this a more realistic dream of completely original guitars

harpo

Please keep us updated on this thread @Jonnysixstring I'm gutted the prospect of me getting one is off but would still like to see how the story develops
