Misc bits going in the bin if nobody wants them & amp cab

At my parents for one more day and found this stuff; going home tomorrow so will take it with me to post if anyone can use it (for postage & change or for a couple of parts)
FREE:
Random crap from my dad, can't keep it but might be somebody's treasure:

Pair of 2 pin DIN (fem) to stereo 6.35mm (male) adapter

Circular TV arial with a 6" cable to RCA male

9" straight arial terminating in a solder lug

MP3 CD player

I wil take the following home with me when I go and have it couriered if someone can use it:
NOT FREE:
DEAD Fender Champ 110 with all the knobs, jacks, speaker, mini reverb tank (cardboard!!!) everything still inside; pretty sure some fucker blew the power semiconductors by running a bass through it at "10" on every dial. Absolutely ideal for a DIY amp; you could even use the PT for an SS build. Chassis drilled for 7 knobs 4 sockets: FX loop? Headphone out? Still probably worth something as a 1x10 cab with none of that stuff. I realise it may not be cheap to post but shoot me an offer if it's worth something to you!

Fender 1991 Japanese Fat Strat with reverse headstock and Floyd Rose II tremolo. Definitely a project; the body is in dire need of a refinish, not least because of what a teenage me drew on with tippex (nothing offensive!) but that will probably crumble off; however don't kid yourself about this being mint by any stretch. Trem has been blocked but was fully working before I blocked it; small chip of the trem mounting hole missing that doesn't affect operation. Will include a hard case to ship it in but the hard case has no handle. Pots and switch not original, pickups are. Probably worth more as parts then as a guitar but will always cut a deal for FSBers ;) Still plays mind, though i had it set up as a bowing guitar (pickups suitably protected).

Pictures of course on request

The strat is not free, sorry :(

Could a mod edit that post? I tried to split them into "free" and "for sale" but missed one of my headers :(

Sorry guys, if you saw my overdraft you'd understand!

that's kinda what I figured after I reread the post. I'll see what I can do about editing.

Yes that's right! Sorry guys for the disappointment.

Do not kid yourselves that I expect a huge amount for either though.

If you decide to split the strat for parts let me know cos i might be interested in the Floyd Rose II. actually id have to check it fits my jackson which has a floyd rose licensed trem first but just thinkin out loud!

The champ could be a cool little project! i wouldnt even have time but for someone with the time could maybe gut it and try stick a valve or two in it! maybe even miniture valves for a compact power amp or use subminis like FC's murder1! Maybe even go all out and stick in a G10M celestion!

Cardboard reverb tank??!! that i gotta see! :popcorn:

FREE:

keybed from a M-audio midi controller. 25 keys, 2 diodes per key so assume it's velocity controlled. Terminates in a 16 pin connector but I'm sure you could do your own thing with it using the diode holes if needed.

building a synth maybe?

If you can use it, any donations (parts, money) gratefully received

For £10 + shipping I will include the case, which has on it:

-8 bit LED
-8 right angle rotary pots + soft touch knobs
-Looks like four dual right angle pots
-couple of mini clicky buttons

Lower part of the case has a mainboard with jack and XLR connectors

Really a perfect synth project but the mainboard is absolutely DEAD, only the electromechanical are worth saving IMO

Sure - no rush. But my questions still apply - well, apart from the one asking if you still have it! ;)

Can't take pictures when it's not with me, sorry, and I was hoping for about £100 for the strat, £10 for the flight case and then courier costs door to door. :)

It can be in Bristol or Cheshire depending on if either of those are close to you.

Tell you what - take some pics when you're next back home and we'll take it from there.

Cheers,
