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.
Link: Making and Modding ThreadEpiphone 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.
£215Link: Epiphone SG TV Pelham Blue w/VibrolaGretsch 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.

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.

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

Mid eighties Japanese neck, mexican blonde body, steel block, japanese scratchplate and pickups, Fender Stamped saddles. Awesome. Might... might keep.
Back for sale, £300CMI 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.
£190That's all for now off the top of my head, but there will be more.

GLWTS and everything else mate.
@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.
@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.
I knocked back an original 1959 Les Paul last week for £1000. Same reason.
I had already put that it was mid-90's on the wording, so no idea what the surprise was!
I could be wrong, but I was sure you sold me this rosewood one!
