Cheers , I didn’t remember seeing any in the limelight thread

I’ve had sandbergs and they are superb instruments, especially the build quality, I had a custom one made too which was very nice, mine all setup with a really low action and lovely necks and a great sound , I would say the only reason I didn’t totally gel with them was because I always reverted back to my fenders, nothing to do with the basses themselves, it’s just me, I was tempted by the Ida Nielsen signature but I don’t think I’d stick with it

Don’t think limelight did this style of bass did they, isn’t it just precisions and jazzes

I think some of it might be legit, hard to say without properly checking it out

The seller told me he has owned this for about 40 years

I think he might have had it done by now 😁

It’s certainly special 😂

Welcome Matty

A recent one from Roberto Sanchez I’m liking

Really nice Ash, I bet that sounds quite powerful

Yeah definitely

He told me it’s a 69

I never really studied the tele bass much, it was re-introduced in 68 I think, it’s an Interesting one, the neck plate dates to 68 with the large F , looks like small ferrules on the body stringing too

Welcome Phil

True stubs, similar to the AVRI, I’ve got a 62 jazz and a 62 precision, they are outstanding instruments

I’m neither an accountant or lawyer but I am a big fender fan, I know there’s lots here that aren’t, if you can afford it then CS fenders are pretty much the best you can get if you can find the right one for you , I’d have another tomorrow if one caught my eye but I’d be a bit more selective now rather than just jumping in and buying them , there’s nothing wrong with wanting the best you can buy, whether it’s worth the price doesn’t matter to me if it’s something you want and it makes you happy every time you pick it up

I haven’t bought any lately ,but I have been tempted whenever I see a Sean Hurley CS precision listed

Very cool

My mini P bass has a small body, I just use it for noodling on the sofa when I was looking Flight do a mini jazz bass , not sure if you could get the size to maybe copy it to make one

First class work, congratulations on getting a beautiful bass

Definitely, this would take some time to work out 😁

Same here, just about anything I buy has to be all original, it’s just the way I prefer it too, some exceptions are i like early precisions and jazzes which aren’t always original but that’s because some things may have worn out, not upgrades

Taking a break from the Sean Hurley ones and working on a few Robbie Shakespeare Basslines I’ve never got around to playing
