Unfortunately i've had to stick it on ebay as i literally can't wait any longer Anyway, here's the listing if any of you guys would still like to buy it! Joe '62 Danelectro Silvertone 1448. Brilliant Condition! on eBay (end time 13-Apr-10 15:40:07 BST)

Hi firebirdsligner - i've just sent you a pm! joe

Michael, that's cool - just give me a shout when you have the money, and if i still have it, it's yours! You're right, i probably will regret it a whole lot, but i'm lucky enough to have two other guitars i love, so i'll be fine in terms of playing shows etc. It is a bit of a kick in the teeth to be selling it for such a terrible reason though...

ah nice one well, give me a shout when you're ready! actually, if you had a ballpark timescale i could probably keep it for you? buchanan clarke and wells have waited for me to pay up for over a year already, a little longer isn't going to hurt...

haha yeah, fair enough! really hope somebody does want to buy it locally, otherwise i'll have to stick it on ebay, which doesn't seem right, not for a guitar this precious!

Ah cool! It's good to know they didn't screw up the re-issue, as the first set of DC-59's that came out were pretty flimsy. Bigsby, that sure is a nice silvertone! I'm half tempted to ask if you'd trade it for the 1448, despite the fact i need money and not a guitar haha... Joe

Hi there! Yes it really is an amazing guitar. Just amazing to hold and play - lots of fun! I'm having to sell it to pay off council tax debts - literally the worst reason in the world to lose a guitar. Sometimes i wish i had a real job, oh well! Out of interest, how are the new re-issues? They have the frosted lipsticks right? They look very well built!

Sadly, i'm having to sell my favourite guitar in the world, a Danelectro Silvertone 1448. I'm looking for 250 ono - they can go for quite a bit more on ebay, so i'd consider this a total bargain, especially if you're living in aberdeen (no postage costs etc). The guitar was made in the early 60's and this is one of the best examples i've ever seen - brilliant frets, neck, original skate key tuners, very few marks. Here are some pictures and a video link... Silvertone 1448 Thanks for reading! Joe

Its me! i want it! i will buy it asap! i'll send you a message with my telephone number and email address. Cheers, Joe

hi lomega, probably around 10 o clock i reckon! joe

What kind of snarling dog is it? I've been looking for the yellow one with the ring mod switch on the back for ages!! Joe

how very perspicuous of you richard

Hi there, I'm looking to buy a cheap second hand guitar stand. Can anyone help me out? Hope so! I'd like to pay 5-10 - let me know if you can help out Cheers, Joe

yeah, you made lots of mistakes. how about you put in some god damn practice once in a while huh?

Yeah... I'm going to cry.

sold! . .

also, i should say - the picture i posted isn't MY 50 top, it's somebody elses. i'll take pictures of mine later tonight - it pretty much looks exactly the same anyway. joe

Hey maxi! Yeah it's in pretty good nic! I had to replace the tubes and get it serviced pretty soon after i bought it (i think it had been sitting in a loft for like 30 years). The volume pot was a little crackley when i first put it on, but i gave it a good twisty and it sorted itself out. I might actually spray some switch cleaner in there out of pure kindness. So yeah, it was serviced like 3/4 months ago but hasn't been played much at all. hope you're good dewd! joe

Hello there, I'm selling a vintage (original 70's model, not one of the horrible reissues) Carlsobro 50 Top tube head. It's in really good condition and was serviced a few months ago (then not played). I tested the head again this afternoon and it still sounds ace. Tone wise; Nice & crunchy when pushed a little and really crisp/clear when played clean. It's quite a basic amp channel wise (1 channel, t/m/b/v), but it's pretty much one of the most saught after british tube heads ever built. Basically, it's totally awesome. I'm only selling it as i need to replace 2 broken (and pretty expensive) pedals but have no money. Here's a bunch of people saying how brilliant it is; http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Guitar+Amp/product/Carlsbro/50+Top+Head/10/1 I'll post some pictures if anyone is interested, but for now have a look at this to get an idea of how the 50 Top looks (pretty cool). Price wise, i'll let it go for 250 - they go for loads more when they actually turn up on ebay (around 400) but i need the cash urgently! Also, i live in stonehaven, so i can drive out and meet whoever is interested in playing through it/buying it. Thanks for reading! joe

hello! i've sent you a pm. 'ave a look! joe :up:

have you sold this yet? i'd like to buy it you see! i've sent you an email!

Captain tom's practice spaces sound really, really dead - which i don't like. The guitar amps in each room are (or were) horrible old Lany solid states and the microphones smell of puke. It's location is pretty good, but other than that it's a total shipwreck run by a bunch of aging tool fans that smoke grass all day. P.S. Are transition going to start putting on shoes? that would be great!

dude, awesome!

Yet another reason to leave Aberdeen then?
