DavidRees

purchased off this very Forum back in 2013 when I had a desire to be a bass player - fret skimmed and set up with Thomastik -Infield  JF344 Flatwounds by Tom at Feline Guitars but has pretty much stayed in it's rather luxurious case since. looking to sell for what I paid for it back then. Cash and collection from London SE21.

I am linking to the original ad on here back in 2013 as it has better pictures than I could take

that is odd they were there when I posted but have seem to have disappeared - I have neither smartphone nor camera which is why I took the lazy route of linking to the original ad - I'll see what I can do ...

The pics have gone from the 2013 Discussion mentioned above. Could be a photo hosting issue. More likely, the owner of the original pics has elected to delete them from his hosting provider.
