Yeah this Limelight feels great, really does. Just when someone popped up offering a JV it made me think....
-
Thanks so far folks, most useful. The reason I ask is that I was offered a trade for my Limelight P (which I'm not overly keen to move on, truth be told). It could well be a BC member but I don't know!
-
I thought I saw one on sale here but perhaps I was imagining it. They seem to have a very good rep (the early to mid 80s ones at least). Thoughts on value and how they compare with something of similar price like a used US Standard? Thanks

Out of interest, are both pickups Limelight's own or did you request something different?
-
Very aware there is plenty of choice regarding replacement straps online, but I was wondering if anyone could recommend some for gig bags that are comfy, don't twist or loosen easily and don't cost the earth?
-
You can get decent 3-ply ones on Amazon for around £11. Avoid 1 ply as apparently they can warp over time.

SOLD --- Limelight Precision Bass w Gator hard case
foxyFuze replied to foxyFuze's topic in Basses For Sale
That's what the spare mirrored pickguard is for! -
If I didn't already have a Kemper (nearly always using the Super Bassman profile) this would be firmly in my sights. Best of luck, a great opportunity for a savvy player! -

Thanks! The more I play it, the less inclined I am to move it on... -
SOLD --- Limelight Precision Bass w Gator hard case

It feels great to play; in my mind a more 'classic' P sound than my old Fender P/J. May yet keep hold of it! -
SOLD Acquired recently but I need to trim down for my house move. I'm looking for a sale but could be tempted by a swap should my other bass sell..... Lots of chat about these, don't need to go on about it really - build quality and range of tones competes admirably with more expensive instruments. The upgrades make this a great gigging active jazz bass. No case is included so postage will need to be discussed, just ask - I do have a hard case for inclusion at extra cost. There's some very positive chat on 'that other bass forum' about the NJ4s (60s wind, RRP £170) and the A Style Hipshot bridge (RRP £80) is a fine addition too. It comes with Rotosound Roundwounds, but will include the almost-new DR Fatbeams it had on it also. Minor damage to the finish is pictured. I'm happy to provide more photos or video walk-through. I also have a fine selection of tea and coffee should you wish to try it out in Bristol :-) -
---- SOLD ---- Aquired this in a trade, I now know road-worn instruments are my thing, but I'm going to be a bit short of space and I have a couple of instruments I need to move on. This is a fine instrument from Limelight (check out the reviews online), stylishly 'reliced', comfortable neck (40mm nut width), vintage pickups and quality components. This is more than a match for pricier Fender road-worn instruments. A Gator hardcase is included, as well as a mirrored pickguard. I can send more photos or do a video walkthrough for a closer look. Clearly the case is preferable for postage, but if you wish to collect or meet up and don't require the case then that can be arranged. I'm not looking for specific trades but if I do sell my other bass, I could be interested in a swap. Get in touch before I change my mind!

Yes, both fair points. I think their recording was somewhat of a DIY affair with own instruments but there's always a possibility it's a borrowed instrument. The P seems to be rare in appearance compared with the J. I'm a novice with production stuff but I take the point about studio and mastering techniques.
-
I'm not an obsessive fan, but I'm inclined to believe it is. They're not making GnR levels of cash selling out stadiums with endless supplies of guitars!
-
Met up with Rik to do a swap - now the proud owner of a punchy and very playable P Bass. Another successful transaction with a great BC member!
-
Bought a bass from Andrew a few days ago; always a pleasure to meet another BC'er in person, even if it was only for 5 mins in train station car park! Great instrument, exactly as described. Cheers Andrew

There's a subtle difference you can spot when compared side by side; the V7 vs V7 vintage videos online would indicate this. Could someone tell my Vintage from the normal V7 live in a band? Maybe....
-
Yes, last point very valid!
-
hmm, works fine with Chrome.
-
Really getting into this band: great album and lo-fi sound to everything they do. Good to see a Jazz bass too! Any ideas of what else might be going on aside from the kit pictured to achieve that sound - particular strings perhaps? No YouTube videos so it's a Spotify link instead:

Etienne bought a pedal board off me; he was very prompt with messages, paid straight away and was a pleasure to deal with!

ON HOLD PENDING TRADE PRICE DROP - £900 In very good condition with a touch of wear on top of the headstock (pictured), in great condition. The frets and electronics are faultless. It was setup a couple of months ago and plays really well. I'm still surprised how light and well-balanced these instruments are. It comes with a Gibson hard case. Postage available but collection in or near Bristol is preferable (and trials are more than welcome) -
Hi folks, Moving this on to a good home (I hope). ON HOLD --- Boss BF-2 Flanger - £45 The Flanger is from the early 90's but has had only light use and works perfectly. Some say they prefer this to the newer BF-3. There are lots of videos online to see how it fares. Postage at buyer's cost or collection from in or near Bristol is ideal. -
