I'm going to move 4 of my guitars on if anyone wants to make me an offer.
First off is a cherry red Epiphone SG copy - 310, which is the bolt-on neck. This was purchased in 1993. It has one original pickup and one Schaller Golden 50. I haven't taken it out of storage in years so no idea if it still produces sound. It did when I parked it.
Then there is a Columbus Series 2 black LP copy. This is a knackered old beast of a Japanese knock-off, which has a bolt-on neck, a lovely tone, but a very high action. Maybe it can be brought back up to scratch or it could make a superb slide guitar. The killer feature is the Max Frecknell handwound humbucking pickups, with split wiring for either coil taps or phase switches. or both. Worth it for those alone. Not sure of age as it was second-hand when I bought it in 1988. Series 2 means it's post-lawsuit. This also worked when I put it in storage. No idea if it still does.
I've also got a Cherry red Line6 Variax 500 to sell. This is the first Variax, made before they put '500' on it. It's a decent guitar and the modelled sounds are great. The digital output (basically a Neutrik cat-5) was dodgy so I replaced it with a new one, but I'm not convince that solved the problem (the trouble is the digital input in my Pod XT live is also on the fritz). Analog output is was fine when I stored it. Sold with footswitch and a power supply if I can find it. I bought an S/H Variax 700 so this is surplus to requirements. This has a gigbag.
Finally a Crafter FA-820-EQ round-back electro-accoustic. Nothing wrong with this one, just that it's surplus to requirements. It has onboard electronics and EQ. I bought this new in 1996. I have a Hohner gigbag that will fit it.
