A large stash of my gear is about to go up on eBay this weekend. More details tomorrow...there's some relatively iconic NIN and Beck-related touring stuff, random bits, effects, instruments, amps, etc. etc. Stay tuned!

So I don't get the point of telling everyone here one TB what you're planning on selling on EBay.
Maybe to give everyone a heads up on deals for your equipment? But then we're competing with the rest of the world for your auctions.
I see that you're a supporting member, so why not sell here? No eBay fees, what's there to lose?

Because I have over 160 items for sale and they are not just bass-oriented. Therefore Talkbass would be too narrow a channel for selling such a variety. Plus I'm working on three records right now and too busy to do private sale myself, so I've hired a friend and his reputable eBay service to do the work on my behalf. Just ended up making more sense for me. I'm mentioning it here as a courtesy, because people here have asked me in the past to do so when I was about to offer things for sale.

This is interesting, is it ok to ask why you sell so much gear? And THE question:Shipping worldwide or just United States?

I think worldwide, depends on what my eBay seller's personal policy is, but yes I believe so.

I'm selling stuff because I simply have too much. And I'm tired of having multiple storage facilities for gear that doesn't get used. Some of the things I'm selling I REALLY love, but I have a hardcore six-month rule: If it hasn't been in my rotation for six months, it gets the axe.

Best,
JMJ

Good luck with the sales!

Oh man, I'm in love with that Lakland Decade! Never seen one with Dark Stars combined with a pre.

Justin, do you happen to know if that's a Lakland/Hanson pre or a Bart? Lakland came out with its preamp in '06.
