    When you look at my top 3 I think it's quite easy to spot that I am a product of the 80s. My top 3 are:

    John McGeoch (Siouxsie and the Banshees, Magazine, PIL, etc) - amazing unorthodox talent and much missed (probably the guitar equivalent of Mick Karn).

    Geordie Walker (Killing Joke) - again, an amazing unorthodox talent.

    Andy Taylor (Duran Duran, Power Station, etc) - at first consideration, kind of the opposite of my other two choices but still a little unorthodox in his own way if you consider his hard rock playing style in the context of an 80s pop band.

     

    I am in the same vein...

     

    Keith Levene

    Geordie Walker

    John McGeoch

     

    ...and if I may give a special mention to the often overlooked John McKay (Siouxsie and the Banshees second guitarist) without whom I don't think Geordie nor John McGeoch would sound quite the way they do.

    In the end, I found this locally:-

     

    Played through headphones, it should keep her indoors happy..................... and me too!  Budget?  What budget was that then! :)

    That's a doozy. One of the first guitarists I played alongside had a Burns, it was likewise a doozy.

    I don't think that my budget will stretch that far without "her indoors" becoming aware!  Fancy a swap for a lovely classic acoustic anyone!!!!

     

    Oh do feel free to make me a stupid offer, it was a foolish purchase and now it's sitting around doing nothing but gathering dust (in its case of course) and if there's one thing I hate it's an instrument not getting played.

    ***SOLD***

     

    Purchased this preamp from Thomann on 17th October 2022. It has been out of the box once, plugged in, switched on, played a note or two just to check it was working ok, otherwise unused. therefore unmarked and as new. Fully boxed with all the paperwork/manual. These retail for around £269 new. If you buy from new a power supply is not included. I will throw in a 1-Spot 9v power supply (about £23worth). Here's a link to the Fishman Product Page.

     

    Happy to post but equally happy to deliver (I will drive further than most) or meet half way to ensure a safe and secure delivery. Not looking for any trade thanks. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions or request further pics.

    C'mon you bought on whim and now you're selling on a whim for a loss? I'm not criticising you, I've done the same and worse on occasion. I'm just saying that the guitar is beautiful and has a value, just be aware and make the most of it... and good luck, whatever you do.

     

    Cheers but it's languishing and I don't like to see instruments languishing.

  6.  FOR SALE HX Stomp XL £450 ***SOLD***

    See Line 6 product page here.

     

    Purchased this from Coda Music in Stevenage on 9th September this year which makes it 27 days old. Got it home, updated it to the latest software version and then put it back in its box where it's been ever since. I play straight into a QSC and I'm going back to using the much simpler Fishman Platinum Pro. No idea why I bought it really, it's my third Stomp now, the first two went unused too, I suppose I thought I'd use it but was wrong... thrice.

     

    It is as new, still has it's screen cover on, complete with USB, mains and original packaging and updated to the latest firmware Helix/HX 3.15 (released February 8, 2022).

     

    You can pick up from Southend or meet between our locations or I'm happy to deliver to you (within reason, try me, I like a long drive) or add a tenner to the price (£460) and I'll post next day delivery.

     

    Happy to answer any questions.

  7. I am just putting it up for sale, it is a lovely thing and is even better now it's been properly set up but I have to just admit to myself it was a purely GAS driven purchase.
