    If anyone would like a 9v 1A centre negative boss-style pedal power supply and a daisy chain adapter with 5 right angle plugs to fit said power supply you are welcome.
    There is also 9v 500ma power supply with 5 plugs on a daisy chain that you can take too!

    A bunch of stuff that I'll throw in for anyone that'd find any of it useful.


    1.    Marshall AVT150 combo.  Free, if collected from IP22.  This is listed FT in the Amps£ section.
    1a.  If anyone fancies the amp part alone, I'm going to pull that out of the cab and will wrap & ship it.

    Gone to the gent who is @sammysaber :)

    2.  A set of active pickups for a P bass, with pots.  Branded FGI Technology.


    3.  Wilkinson branded wrapover bridge - with the adjustable G/B strings, with posts.  Gold.  Gone to @jdbwales ;;


    4.  iRig interface for guitar -> iPad.  It connects via the 3.5mm mic/headphone socket.


    5.  Set of 3 single coil pickup covers (no holes for the pole pieces).  Black.  Gone to @paulnb57 ;;   


    6.  40 plectrums - all theFB branded (so, super collectible memorabilia!!).  Leftover giveaways from the days when we did shows.  Gone to @paulnb57 ;; 


    7.  A bit random this one ... a pilot's flying logbook.  Unused because I never filled any of it in.


    8.  A set of 3 white black single coil Strat-style Wilkinson pickups.  Completely unused.  Read 9.7 (B) & 7.6 (M&NGone to  @Slimbert ;;


    9.  Eagles - Hell Freezes Over tab book.


    You're welcome, nay encouraged, to grab more than one item as that'll save me posting it all individually!

    Is it allowed to take again?

    If so, those p'ups would be quite handy @paulnb57 ; and I'll have to find somethings else to offer up.

    No problem, have as many goes as you want, as long as you've still got something to put up in return

    Whilst I await the arrival of the computer interface I relieved @SPECTRUM001 of I will put up a job lot of  2 pick guards if anyone is in need of them.

    both were bought new by me for 335/jazzbox projects that didn't happen and both are unused condition, one I bought from a guy in the States about 12 years ago, its handmade and I think it is Teak, the other one is your normal run of the mill made in China guard, still has the plastic film on it.

    Bugger!

    If you ever decide you can't find a use for the P90, I'll happily pop down for a natter and slip it in my pocket when you're not looking!

    @slimbert @prudd - sorry guys, the P90 was really the one that grabbed my attention and prompted me to say "yes please".

    You're always welcome to drop in if you're passing though! 

    I'm going to edit my post above with some extra stuffs ...

    I really wish I could move faster to get these things...but with 20st on a pirate peg leg, I don't have a hope in hell!

    @TTony Any idea what model the single coils are? Are they hot, vintage, etc? Could you get the multimeter out for me?

    I'll have first dibs on those please.

    I'll have a little look around tomorrow and get some things together. Must be a few half decent things sat around in drawers and cabinets.

    Right my Rokit R5s are on their way to a new owner. As well as postage I extracted an extra tenner from woodandwires to donate to charity. As such is their someone on the Fretboard who co-ordinates this or do we have a charity of choice? Failing that I will send to Cancer Research and post the receipt on here.

    Hey Tony, could I grab those black Wilkinson strat pickups please?  I've still got my Artec Mini-Humbucker-sized Filtertron up for grabs, and I might be able to find some more pickups in the box too.

    @Slimbert - you called dibs on those first, subject to the details that I added in the original post.  Still want them, or can I let them go to @joetele ?

    Yes, I'd still like to take them, if possible.

    I can send you the postage costs or collect them next time I'm passing. No idea when that might be though.

    I've got a few bits to list, and I promise to give Joe first dibs on the pickups.

    I don’t think there is an agreed charity. Usually people donate to the board running costs.
