Anyone selling a cheap hardtail plank of some description, up to, say, £180?

Kahuna

I want something to noodle on in the car.  Something like a Vintage or Epi Les Paul would be ideal.  I'd consider a decent Tele, but I'll listen to any suggestions.

I can collect within a reasonable radius of Chesterfield (J29 M1)

I have a brand new SG Futura you can have for £140. Played it once.
It is very cheap....

Can you point me to any details of this guitar mate, any Google searches just bring up the Gibson Futura.

Not quite £180 but I’d sell my squier Tele custom for £200 and meet you somewhere between chesterfield and holmfirth.

Just sorting some pics for you. It's a 2017 model, I bought it on the Amazon sale. Two humbuckers, 1 vol, 1 tone. Called Cherry - if poo brown is now a shade of cherry....

The only SG Futura I can see is about a grand.  I seem to recall a Gibson SG Fusion if that's the one.  Where are you based?

I've got an Adam Black double cut with ASBO pickups and ebony board that you could have for £175. Actually a really nice player.

As yes. Oops. Sorry. Fusion.That'll be the one...

I'm based in Leicester, just off J22 of the M1.

Here's a few pics. I don't have the gig bag for it, but can find an old one to help out:

Cheers for the pics mate.  I'm going to pass on this, and let @mikeyrob73 take a run at it. I'll be honest and say it looks like a great guitar for the price, and I'm sure it'd make a great slide platform, but I just don't think it's for me.  I've played a lot of SGs between the late 70's and now, and I just don't get on with them.

@mikeyrob73 - snatch his fecking hand off mate.  There's a Youtube video of Pete from Andertons playing one and it sounds great.

Is an Explorer going to be too funky a shape for playing in the car?

Kahuna

Absolutely not!  What is it mate?

I've got this for £100 - I may be visiting Mansfield on Saturday week (10th).



It's a surprisingly nice sounding guitar.

mikeyrob73

Played one of those hamers a few weeks ago well worth £100

Danish would make a toothpick and rubber band sound good!

That is a lot of guitar for the price that won't last long on here

@Kahuna ;;
I think so (not 100% on the naming of squiers nowadays). Reply to my PM if you want pics!

Kahuna

Thanks to everyone who replied. Got a busy day tomorrow, so I probably won't be able to respond till later.
