Amazing amps and fabulous to see one survive in such good condition. These sound brilliant - bright and clean but with a lovely responsive, fat and clear low-end. Great to see something of such vintage

Fantastic colour - I can see from previous threads that this is the bass that Isabass was selling last November - lovely, I was close to buying it then

Beautiful - I came very close to buying the same model that Isabass was advertising late last year. Is this the same bass that Isabass sold (or one of the other 5)?

Ooohh...does the colour change with bias selection? I think the new images should move this quickly!

a lovely instrument and some lovely playing too!

These are lovely - I've had a CAR and sonic blue and both were very impressive instruments

Just two things to say here - first, these basses are absolutely amazing instruments with extraordinary playability (and this is one of the most beautiful examples I've seen), and second, Pestie is without doubt one of BC's finest and most trustworthy sellers. A stunning bass and a brilliant seller

This is a really lovely bass at an astounding price in my opinion. I had a Limelight J and it was sublime (the OW 'reference' heavy relic). The necks are J width nut but slightly (and it really is slight) thicker front to back. They don't feel overly 'substantial' but are solid, slick and comfortable - 'fast' if that actually means anything? Pickups are excellent too and the overall feel and aesthetic is fantastic - very usable basses. This example is an absolute steal (and it's just 20 minutes over the Pennines from me!) Somebody is going to get a bargain.

Absolutely love this but doubt I could move it - absolute bargain!

I know this isn't going to light (!) but what's the total weight of the amp plus case? Incidentally, the case looks superb.

Some of the best necks in the business!

90s TE gear is dirt cheap now. However, every time I see somebody gigging with one, it sounds absolutely amazing (to my ears, better than pretty much all of the contemporary rigs). I gigged TE for around 10 years - rock solid and compliments at almost every gig. Wish I could carry this

I used to own this - by far the nicest Overwater I've ever seen - it's truly beautiful and plays wonderfully well. It was just a bit too big for me. Fantastic seller too!

Can you let us know where you are if you can't ship?

Lovely - there's a nice review in Premier Guitar (with finger and pick sound samples) for those with an interest. Very cool bass

[quote name='jimbobothy' timestamp='1454581361' post='2970934'] Hi there Three, The original parts taken off went onto a Fender Roadworn jazz I sold on here not too long ago, so I don't have them. I do have the tug bar and bridge off the Roadworn that is the same style (60s with threaded saddles) and matches the aging of the VVT control plate. I also have a Fender soft gig bag that will be included in the sale. Peace.. [/quote] Thanks - this is very tempting - love the blocks and bound with MHS (and my previous Limelight was stunning!)

Lovely! Are the original parts included and does this come with a case (I know that Limelights frequently come in a case)?

What an absolutely beautiful bass - I love the way the different planes are combined into the whole. What a salutary tale too. I suspect that I've been through similar emotions but was never sufficiently courageous or single-minded to knock it on the head. Good luck with the sale - a unique bass, Even greater luck with whatever you decide to do next

One of the finest valve pres - I've tried a lot and had a 680 for a while. I'd still have it had I not discovered - following much expensive experimentation - that I prefer SS. The 680 is bullet-proof - brilliant and very quiet for both stage and studio

I only know of one other in such good condition - these are lovely basses and this is a beautiful example. 11 lbs plus is about right for these - unfortunately, much too heavy for me (all that solid brass really contributes to the weight)

I'll attest to the quality and feel of the necks on these - I had a US JO and the neck was superb - silky, fast and incredible feel all the way up (superb carving and attention to ergonomics)

I had a chestnut topped MG5 - it was a thing of extraordinary beauty but the board was simply too wide for me. I keep looking and hoping that this has been sold...I'm starting to weaken...

I've lusted after these for years and what a beautiful and unusual example. How does it balance on the knee (and on a strap)? I've had a few Status Streamlines and whilst they're great on a strap, they're not so easy to use in a seated position (unless one wears a strap!)
