Hi Sue,

Absolutely no problem, it's what we do and I really wanted to try and 
get to the bottom of it for you because it's a good bass.
If you wanted to bring any of the pedals that you would like to move on, 
we'll take a look and make you an offer.
Also, we can rehome the spares if you want to bring them along too.

Kind regards.
Tim.
