  • Folks,

    Firstly, Huge thanks to  @TTony  for kindly giving me his amazing amp - had been a dream to have so many knobs to play with for such a long time.

    Big apologies for not responding sooner, but to cut a long story short last couple of months has been a real challenge whereby my company has managed total earnings of £170, and the icing on the cake was the car blowing up and ending up in a scrapyard, etc etc and more etc.

    Have been trying to gain employment and getting some interviews, and went into storage to dig out some suits - this is where this pair come in if you want a Bonamassa prop lol or God forbid, have to go to an interview instead.

    Both brand new unused with price tags and all other tags still attached - both very dark pinstripes(flash made one look grey but they're both dark charcoal/blackish pinstripes  with cool linings ) size 44.

    Pierre Cardin bought on sale at TK Maxx for 100 quid, and Lauren Ralph Lauren bought from TJ Maxx in NY sale for $150.

    Obviously both play like butter, however they will also provide a slightly more gutsy tone when playing while wearing them.

    Also a very nice black leather Gaucho strap  - hope the awesome @hollywoodrox  doesn't mind me showing the original thread

    Hi if the strap is long i will take it please ,i'm no being picky,im 6ft4, so i just don't want to take it and find out its too small and i've wasted yours ,mine,and forum time...
    edit ..just looked at original sale link and its "60" 
    so that would be ideal .
    thank you

    And i will look over the next few days for something to pass on.

    And going through your rough patch  i hope you get your break and piece of luck...hang on in there fella and we have a friends in need bit to let off steam or want a listening ear, or opinion/ advice.

    We all love our guitars on here but we also have a great community on here who look out for each other.

    All the best .
    Mark.

    These were originally in my parts thread but I think they're better off being given away to whoever wants them. 

    Stagg black telecaster 8 hole pickguard - scratch just below neck pickup hole. 

    Pearloid blue Telecaster 8 hole pickguard - no mounting holes for neck pickup so you'll have to drill them (there are marks made for them.

  • Could I take the pickups please? And if nobody else wants it, the tuner too?

    I don't have much in the way of stuff I can pay forward but I'll have a look.

    ...and strings. The big guitar shops, especially ;-)

    Speaking of which, did you get those Slinkys @TDubs ? Because I noticed that you have this lying around.....

    Large selection of bits and bobs. String sets except for super slinky and fender bullets are strings that I tried on various guitars over the years and for some reason kept. May be good for spares but would suggest checking gauge with a calliper. Couple of 335 scratch plates, bracket, rear tele plate, selection of knobs, set up roller card (fritz Ruler), old fender paperwork, Valve vibration dampers, a bass bridge/saddles (one missing grub screw), an under saddle piezo pickup, pedal power lead, and I think that sums it up. All packaged up and ready to go - if any of it of use.

    Edit: @lovestrat74, @Acdeezee86, @Woodandwires, sorry I should have been clearer in the post. Everything is already in one parcel taped up, so the lot is ready to be posted off in one go, not really keen on splitting up and sending bit by bit. I'll let each respective one have first refusal.

    @lovestrat74 I've just trawled some emails and the black witch hat knobs should be imperial. Not sure about the other ones, possibly imperial too.

    Hey @danishbacon ;; - if the black vol and tone witch hat knobs are CTS size I'll take them and replenish the pot!

    Sorry Fred I didn't realise that was the case. I don't need all that stuff so I'll step aside for someone else :+1:

    TAKEN, SOON TO BE ON THEIR WAY TO @Woodandwires ;

    Two brass slides acquired in the process of trying to find what works for me (a shorter glass slide on my middle finger apparently). Offered as a pair. The longer one is a dunlop 222 and the shorter something else that is 50mm x 20mm dia approx.
