FS/FT: Loads Of My Gear Gibson Vibrola, MIJ Strat, 70's Amp Head ALL MUST GO!

Rox

Due to some really bad news, I need to pare down all my gear and equipment.  I'll be  going down to the bare minimum.    (So far, my 'bare minimum' is 2 electrics a bass and an acoustic... if pushed, 1 electric and 1 acoustic..)

I'm creating this thread to keep everything together, even stuff I've already listed on here.  But rather than clutter up the classifieds with tons of threads, I thought I'd condense everything into one thread.  Hopefully that's okay.

So, on the block:

Epiphone EJ200 Vintage Sunburst

There's a thread in the Making and Modding about this one, and the work I've put into it so far.  I won't have the time to finish it before the clearout.  £60 - I'd bought some Grovers, so seems fair price for a pretty thing.

Epiphone TV Pelham Blue SG Custom - SOLD with an Epiphone Vibrola.  I have an original 60's Vibrola, and the thickness and 'springyness' of the Vibrola is very much on a par.

It's got a lovely dark fretboard.  The only thing is that there are a couple of dints in the pickup covers, which were there when I bought it.  Pickups sound great and are coil tapped for lots of different sounds.  £215

Gretsch Electromatic Double Jet G5248T Double Cut Gold Top - SOLD

It's a beauty.  Lovely sound, and has a chambered body with a centre block.  It's got a really unique sound; light and chimey, with some lovely sounds further up the neck.  £225

Fenix Telecaster E Series - SOLD

Every now and then I feel like I should really try a Tele.  Everyone raves about them... but I just can't get on with them.  This is my third or fourth attempt, so that's that I reckon.  £135

Original 1965 Gibson Lyre Vibrola SOLD

£190 for an original seems a bargainous deal to me... £110 cheaper than a repro!  SOLD.


Burny VH1 Pickups
£50 plus p&p

Premium Pedals.  Honest they are.

Peavey Delta Blues 2x10 Amp - SOLD

My Fender Custardcaster. 



Mid eighties Japanese neck, mexican blonde body, steel block, japanese scratchplate and pickups, Fender Stamped saddles.  Awesome.  Might... might keep.  Back for sale, £300



CMI Stratocaster. 

Dating from the mid seventies, this has a real bluesy sound.  Large headstock, 3 way switch...  It really is a brilliant guitar.  Plays great.  The only weakspots...  the input jack needs replacing and the tuners could do with better ones.  The originals aren't that good.

I had one of these a few years ago, sold it and immediately regretted it.  Hence buying this one.  But I don't have the luxury of keeping it AND the Custardcaster.  It's a difficult choice because they are both brilliant, but because I built the Custardcaster from bits myself, it has more sentimental value.  £190




That's all for now off the top of my head, but there will be more.

Shit mate, sorry to hear that you've received bad news

Hope you're alright!

Some lovely gear on this thread - hopefully you can get a few swift sales.

Might be worth sticking some prices on the original post too... just saves all the "how much?" questions.

Hi Mate,

Not really looking for stuff at mo but just wanted to send my regards and hope everything works out ok.

Good luck with the gear.

Rox

Thanks for the kind thoughts.    As with any tough times, you just have to keep going...! 

@olafgarten - I'll check out the model number, just can't remember off the top of my head...

@stuagu - I don't want the Custardcaster to go I love it... I believe I bought the neck that's on it from you, in fact... 

@scrumhalf - Northants

Thanks again guys.

usedtobe

Hope things work out, I really do!

@Rox - might be interested in the CMI pending details and a price.  Sorry to hear of your bad circumstances.

@olafgartenThe Zoom is a Studio 1204

@Dodge - what would you like to know?  Obviously open to offers, but let's start at £200 as a kick off point.  Much cheaper than ebay ones.

That's older than me! I think I'll buy something a bit more modern, thanks anyway.

I knocked back an original 1959 Les Paul last week for £1000. Same reason.

Rox

Olaf - I did already say it was mid-90's in the original description...

I had already put that it was mid-90's on the wording, so no idea what the surprise was!
