Hi everyone, I'm doing a small clearout, so there are multiple items for sale.
A few remaining slides!
After going through quite a bit of slides (as I guess we all have done and maybe even not once!), I think I settled on just two slides and will keep using them for good. So these are for sale to help others lost souls in their search for a perfect slide
Dunlop 243 Moonshine Ceramic Slide (~71 x 18.5 x 5 mm) -£13 £10 posted
Some of the specs I found out there says it's 70mm and 17.5mm internal diameter. But I'd say it's definitely at least 18, more like 18.5mm.
Shonky / AM Stainless Steel CBG Slide (~42 x 18.5 x 1.5mm) -£10 £7 posted
Might be a good choice if you play CBGs and would like a shorter version for them! Comes with a storage bag.
SOLD items bellow:
SOLDPRS SE P20E Acoustic Guitar - £300 collection
It's a very decent small-bodied acoustic guitar with a Fishman pickup installed. I'd say it's in mint conditions as I wasn't able to find (or leave?) any noticeable dings. The surface of the guitar is very robust to anything like that. I bought it in Jan 2021 from Musicstreet and enjoyed playing it a lot since then both fingerpicking and slide. The guitar had a professional setup and has a very good action. Comes with a very nice padded gig bag. Collection from Cambridge as I don't have a spare box to ship it. Might consider meeting up somewhere close and accessible by public transport.
SOLDSupro Delta King 8, 1-Watt Valve Amp - £200 on collection, £220 posted
A great little 1-watt valve amp, perfect for home practicing. With both Volume and Master knobs you can really dial in the amount of gain you want at a reasonable volume. Tone control and boost switch are very handy too. Overall, the amp is very responsive and fun to play. It's in great conditions. I got it from Thomann a bit more than a year ago. It has EU plug, but I'll put an adapter for it.
SOLDSennheiser E906 Dynamic Microphone - £120 posted
SOLDThe Rock Slide Brass Swamp Medium (~58 x 19.5 x 1 mm) - £15 posted
Similar features to the previous one, with the exception that Finger Rest is a bit off to Knuckle Cut position. I'm not sure if it's "a bug or feature". Looking into photos of the same slides it looks more like a feature to me I guess? Anyway, thought I'd mention it and attach another photo to highlight it just in case.

A very nice dynamic mic. I bought it a few years ago from Thomann and used carefully at home, so it's in mint conditions. I figured I don't use it anymore since I got UA OX as px for a Champ amp + I have a Lewitt LCT 440 Condenser mic for acoustics/resonators. Thus this one was selected for the clearout!
SOLDK&K Sound Pure Resonator BB pickup - £65 £55 posted
This one came with a National Trojan I bought a few months ago and was detached during the renovation work. I haven't really played with it much as I sent Trojan for a neck reset right away, but I was pleasantly surprised how good and acoustically it sounded in an electro amp. But as I was looking to get a more electric sound instead, I've replaced it with a 12-bar blues humbucker.
Note that I don't have a box, instructions etc. I hope price reflects that!

SOLDDiamond Bottlenecks The Redhouse (~62 x 19 x 3-4 mm) - £10 posted
It came together with MM Blues guitar! I mean, how cool is that? Michael is the best.
SOLDDiamond Bottlenecks The Blue Diamond (~60 x 18 x 5 mm) - £13 posted
Please note that this one has a small white piece of something inside the glass (not on surface!). I highlighted that on the picture below. It basically came like that. I thought it gives it a bit of uniqueness, although I realise it might not be ideal for perfectionists
SOLDThe Rock Slide Amber Glass Medium (~60 x 19.5 x 4-6 mm) - £17 posted
These are quite popular slides (probably more popular over the pond) with fancy features like the Knuckle Cut, Finger Rest and Tapered Interior. I, personally, don't like Knuckle Cut, so I basically used it rotated at 180 degree. Finger Rest is something I can definitely live without (especially when it's turned at 180 degree I guess
) . Tapered Interior is a vey nice feature to have though as it help the slide to sit very firmly on your finger.
