    Ah, I'm well chuffed, thank you - I'm already rehearsing my 'it's not black, it's Charcoal Frost' to my repertoire of sentences Followed shortly by 'yeah i'ts less than 2 years old' and 'look at the nitro cracks'. I'm that original sometimes. Already looking at labella flats...

    It's coooooming hooooooomeeee!!! @Reggaebass and @Cuzzie, thanks gang! Not sure that my missus would thank you, but that's another story!

    Especially if I’m back with a new bass 😅

    what's the weight on this?
  6. Ander87
    Aha! Thanks!

    Hey what's the weight of this one bud?

    Letting go of this fantastic pickup. Does all that you'd expect out of a late 50s and 60s pickup. Good bottom without being boomy, cuts through and great warm highs. I love it but letting go as I prefer a more modern / hi gainy profile for the bass this was in. £95 posted. Covers included. New these come at £145 and over if you look online.

    £70 for the Hiscox case in perfect shape!!
  10. Ander87
    Hiscox case available; all else gone!!
  11. Ander87
    Oooooh that is TASTY!! Nice! yep, I couldn't resist going for something loud - it's a '68 everywhere but the anodised gold and maple board is defo a wink to the '57s...
  12. Ander87
    correct, seen the all parts stamp under the neck, bodies are custom
  13. Ander87
    All sold thanks!
  14. Ander87
    pickguard and dunlop pins sold, daddario black pins available

    right so this could well tease me into changing my BKP '58 too for my backup bass in neosoul band or pick for my punk rock band. Very interesting - I always have to push EQ to make sure the high strings are heard when I play melodies in general over two guitars... It could be a thing! Also interested in that 'solo' P pickup Creamery offers, maybe that one would help the BEAD tuning tighten up.... Ander.

    Hey @oldslapper I'm afraid the pickguard was sold just before you messaged! Sorry!
  17. Ander87
    Oh you’re teasing me now eh? better in what way? How would they compare? I’ll definitely give him a call as I could well consider this, I can almost get two of those pickups for the price of a Fralin…
  18. Ander87
    Oh that's very interesting! I was partial to Aguilar but have heard so much fuzz about Fralin overwounds... But then these Creamery pickups at £85 do beat the price eh? My bass is tuned on BEAD so I need a thick but not too boomy bass, more defined than your usual 60s pickups. Thinking the '65 could do the trick? https://www.creamery-pickups.co.uk/classic-65-precision-p-bass-pickups.html

    Herrick pickup and last loom sold too. Hiscox, Limelight 60s pickup available.
  21. Ander87
    … and @Dov65 has a great price on one available…!
  22. Ander87
    Also can entertain trade of the Hiscox for a regular square case, preferably with cash my way.
  23. Ander87
    Ah thank you buddy I’m well chuffed!!! I guess more unorthodox for a vintage bass but congruent with the white undercoat, gives it a ‘refinished’ edge to it!

    Hey guys, So I've got 3 P basses, one of them for my punk rock band, another one for my soul/neosoul/pop project, and a 3rd one as backup to either. The Purple Limelight goes on a Nordy P blade for the dirty punk rock tones The Olympic white Limelight goes on a Bare Knuckle '58 as backup bass that does cleans for punk rock and backup to the soul/neosoul band The LPB bassmonkey bass needs a pickup for the neosoul band; Considering the tonal options I already have, I was thinking on the below: Aguilar 4p60? Nordstrand NP4A? Fralin? If so, which one, +5% would work? Lollar? if so which one? The bass it'd go to is swamp ash bodied with ebony fingerboard, tuned BEAD, and considering the genre it needs to have thick lows to hold the band and an ability to cut through the mix (keys, singer, drums and clean guitar). I play quite melodic parts so I need the highs to cut through in the mix. No need for glassy highs, just present and easy to hear them. Considering the backup limelight has a BKP '58 I was thinking I would rather have a different taste to the '58 prototype but I'm open to suggestion. Thoughts? Thank you!
