Hi everybody,

I have a set of:
-Dominant Mediums (G, Silver D, Aluminum D, A, and Unwound Chromesteel E)
-Set of Helicore Heavy Gauge (GDAE)

The Helicores GDA have 4 days of use and the E is still wrapped. I was thinking $20 for them Helicores. The Dominants have about a week of use on them and I was thinking $40 for the all the Dominants including both D-strings. Or a trade for some other strings that are used because I like to experiment.

I have also have some steel A-strings I got to experiment with the Eudoxas:
-Jargar Light A (1 hour use)
-Jargar Medium A (new)
-Eudoxa Chromcor (1 hour use)
I am not sure what to do with these to be honest. $5 each? Though I might hold onto the Jargar Medium but I've sort of learned I don't like steel A-strings though.

I also have a couple of shoulder rests as well with no signs of wear (not that I can see anyways):
-KUN Collapsible Shoulder Rest (when they still had surgical tubing feet)
-a Mach One Shoulder Rest (the kind with the suspension leather strap)

I'll trade for money or strings... though by itself it's not worth enough for any strings.I was thinking $10 or so. I just want to get rid of them since I hate having stuff that I don't use.

I also have some chinrests I'd like to get rid of for the same reason.
-Ebony Flat Flesh Chinrest with Gold Hill Hardware.

I'd prefer to trade this for an ebony chinrest of some sort with non-hill hardware. Preferably an Ohrenform/Berber if anyone has one lying around. Maybe a Kaufman, I'm not sure.

I also have two freebies:
-Ebony Guarneri Chinrest
-Ebony Gelrest Chinrest.
If you want, take!

I am located in Edmonton, Alberta so the closer you are the better. PM me please if you are interested in anything.

THank you all.
