Given what a pile of dung ebay is these days, can anyone recommend a good place to sell some spare guitars? I've decided to slim down the collection a bit.

Gumtree.com.

And ask for payment in cash or transfer in a bank. Cheques and bankers drafts can be faked and the banks are easily fooled.

I've had good results with eBay over the years.
I'm currently having a bit of a cull - sold two just this week.

There's the old buyers scam. And, no, there isn't a way round it. No, you can't do that. No, nor that. No, that doesn't guarantee anything.

First one I'm selling is a Burns Brian May. About 5 years old I think, with locking machineheads, all the fancy wiring and phase switches etc, in the Burns custom fit case. It's almost spotless, very little use as I just didn't get on with the shape of it.

Other one I might sell is a Peavey EVH Wolfgang, the USA made one. It has had a lot more use, but never gigged. Two EVH custom humbuckers, Floyd Rose trem, D-dropper on the 6th string. Peavey case.

If anyone is interested send me a PM and I can email piccys.
