    Found another freebie...

    Total tone nirvana. A Behringer UD100 Ultra Distortion (a Boss DS-2 Turbo Distortion clone).

    Used and no box, but it works, and it's yours for free...if you dare!

    Bit of a strange one here...

    A set of 5 + 1 Grover style tuners. Not a clue where these came from, as I don't have any guitars with a 5 +1 headstock.

    These are a sort of dark gunmetal grey/brown colour. Anyway, all have collars and washers, but no screws.


    Also found an iRig. Looks to be brand new, but no packaging. These are handy things if you want to record in to your phone or tablet with Garageband, etc.

    @Slimbert ;
    I could certainly use the irig please! I'm always giving them out to students to record themselves with and recently ran out.

    It's yours!

    I might even have another one somewhere, so you'll definitely get one, but maybe even get two!

    I know I’m straying for the format here by offering it to someone specific but I have an irig that I don’t use if it could be of use @hassleham ;

    Hey @Alex2678 that would be brilliant thank you!

    And thanks @Slimbert too  :)

    I will have a dig through my stash tomorrow and find some bits to donate to the thread.

    I've got a guitar lead with a USB at the other end, no idea how I ended up with it but its going if anyone wants it.
    Also got this Vintage VS6, partially stripped, was going to do something with it but won't get round to it, a suspected heel crack and previous owner has put  a couple of screws in to fix it, which works, solid as a rock stability and tuning, has Grovers on it.
    Pick up only from Stockport. Hope the pic works.

    A free copy of "Zen Guitar" by Philip Toshio Sudo. Well thumbed and has a lot of quotes underlined in pencil (I find this vaguely irritating which shows my Zen journey is still in its early stages!).

    I've read it twice (more accurately one and a half times) and, partnered by Headspace, it's helped me redefine why I play and, in some aspects, how to live, because they're not separable.

    Posted free. Keep it or forward it on when you're done (I have another copy). Would be great to hear what you think of it.

    Hi @pmbomb I’d be interested in that book if it’s still available?

    Set of Ernie Ball Mammoth Slinkys. Free postage, as always.

    Brand new and sealed set, just couldn't get on with the feel of them, so I'll be sticking to D'Addarios.

    Free to anyone who'll publicly admit to liking Ed Sheerans new singles...

    I've got a new Strat white/cream scratchplate 8 holes from Northwest guitars.
    I never put it on. It was mistakenly purchased (I was after a 11 holes) and I should have sent it back for a refund.
    But, around that time I forgot where I put it... I had to find time to post it... you know...
    Free now to who might find it useful.

    Hang on a sec...

    A guitar equipment business is grabbing guitar items from a pay it forward thread?

    Also, you didn't publicly admit to liking Ed Sheerans new singles...so... :s

    I have not forgotten about adding some bits to this however I HAVE forgotten where the box with all my gubbins has gone. I'm pretty sure my other half has tidied it somewhere and now she's taking great pleasure in dragging her feet in looking for it.. 

    I do have 2 straps up for grabs for now though, one fender branded strap and one union jack strap. 

    Can take photos if necessary but will do a proper post and photo when I find my box.

    This could be a very good thing. I mean, what bits and bobs does a guitar shop have, lying around? ;-)

    No packs of strings, clearly!

    Oh, and just for clarity, TDubs little joke will obviously be ignored and the strings are very much still available to anyone willing to publicly admit they like Ed Sheeran's latest singles! ;)

    Nope. Not even a sniff.

    I knew this would be incredibly hard for most people, maybe even impossible. But, that said, I thought at least one person on the forum would lack any kind of self-respect and be completely devoid of any morals.

    I'm impressed with the membership here. Well done, team!
