Request: Musical instruments (60115) How's everyone? *PLEASE READ PLEASE* In my life recently I've been putting a ridiculous amount of work into my music. As a self taught producer, engineer and djing with history of actually playing instruments I'm happy to announce that my first EP will be coming out VERY soon. With that being said for the following projects I am asking my community for their help... If ANY OF YOU.. have ANY musical equipment lying around that you no longer need/use i will HAPPILY take it off your hands. The things I need actually left are as follows: •bass electric guitar (biggest dream, wish & want preferably in good condition but no brand matters and i will restring and tune if needed) • electric drum kit (does not matter the brand, version or kind as long as I am able to connect it to a laptop and its working) •acoustic guitar (the condition doesn't matter nor brand, just needs to be in fine condition no major or interfering factors) •any electrical equipment. Now that means interfaces, small amps (not big ones), any connective cords per the item it goes with, ANY beat machines that are still working or djing equipment of any kind if anyone has any Midi boards then with the midi cable but if you dint have it no biggie.. This post is very vulnerable for me I want that to be known irs extremely hard for me to put this up knowing what im asking or rather looking for.. one thing I want to mention is anything will be taken of those items AND if for some reason any damage is caused or they do not work please DO NOT WORRY because im extremely passionate about music I will be taking any of that stuff to where it can be properly fixed and find its forever home I do promise that. Music is the most important thing to ever matter and mean the most to me. As a musician of 7 years and In these trying times I really hope this gets seen and if anyone would be so kind as to share this or ask friends i will love you forever ❤️ THANK YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS everyone 🙏🏽
