I'm often asked about equipment that's been sold. So for all those who've asked and anybody else who's interested, provided below is a little information. I hope it's of some use to you...
 

Equipment that's gone ...

• Akai XE-8 Drum module
  Along with two cards was sold with an Alesis Micro Enhancer for £120. The XE-8 was an interesting (and flexible) unit for producing percussive sounds. Here's what the purchaser said:
  "Hi TechnoMage, I got it and I love it. thanks again and again and ......"

• Carlsbro Marlin 6-300 (rare 300w mixer amp)
  Went to a happy purchaser here in the UK who had this to say when the amp arrived "just what I wanted, and wonderously light!"

• Fender Vibro Champ (valve combo amp - vgc)
  There was a lot of interest in this very good little recording amp from gutarists (and collectors) all over the world. I accepted a cash offer of £200. The buyer picked up the amp and went away very happy (and still is)!

• Korg KMS-30 MIDI Synchronizer
  Sold for £60 (plus the postage). The new owner emailed me to say.. "cheers... received korg, happy with it." They're happy, I'm happy!
   
• Korg Mono/Poly Synthesizer
  I like this synth, sold this one for £385. I've owned three and always regret selling. Can suffer from tuning problems ('heating' resistor fails). I'd buy another (at the right price!)

  Note! As is my policy before sending equipment I sell, I checked out the DPX and discovered that some of the discs had degraded and wouldn't load, something to watch for when buying older libraries!
  (And yes, I did inform the purchaser before concluding the sale!)

I want to say thank you for making this a remarkably pleasurable transaction experience and that I appreciate your thorough attention to the specifics. Though this has been a learning experience for me as far as international shipping is concerned, the quality of your ethics has become a great part of the experience."
