Lovely stuff, have to love a pink P bass - it looks great with the anodized guard too. Did you go with a chunkier 50s neck? 

Nice… 👍🏻

Nice bass!
 

What are those ‘squares’ on two of the neck screws? 

Can I ask this same question please? Can't see a reply..? Is it a residue of some sort? Can it be cleaned off? 

PM sent 

Oh my goodly goodness…!! 😯

Very nice.. GLWTS.. 👍🏻

Ooh… a nice bit of Limelight gorgeousness.. I can hear it just looking at it.. 👍🏻

I really really really need a small lottery win right now…. 😳

Lovely looking Road Worn Precision..

I'm guessing the nut width and neck profile is fairly 50’s P….ish? 

Awesome bass.. glwts 

What a beauty..! Shame Leeds is so far away.. or perhaps that’s a good thing to save my credit card! 😬

Cumbria and Sussex quite a distance apart?? GLWTS 

Fabulous basses.. John refinished a ‘68 P for me many years ago, his work is top top quality.. wish I had the cash.. GLWTS 

GLWTS.. this looks gorgeous.

Not sure why this hasn’t sold yet..? *buys lottery ticket..

Bargain… shame Skipton is a 5hr drive away… GLWTS

These are LImelight's own-sourced pickups so not sure where they are made.

No need to swap these out.. they’re excellent.. 👍🏻

Beautiful example of Mark’s work.. is it a P neck or J? And what’s the number on the headstock reverse please?

No chance of me getting to Leicester sadly but this is a bargain.. GLWTS

What’s the nut width please? 

GLWTS wish I wasn’t so skint this month.

Flabber completely ghasted… 😮

A black pick guard on that and it would be as punkytastic as it gets.. shame I don’t have £500 at the moment.. GLWTS 👍🏻

Hello there!

 

I was hoping some of you lovely limelight owners could help me out with a quick question.........

 

I've been chatting to Mark (who has been excellent!) about a potential build and am hoping one of you here could help me out - I think it's mentioned here that his J necks feel like the current J necks in use on the US model Fenders, but I'm trying to get an idea of what the finish on the back of a relic'd neck feels like. Would you say the Limelight necks felt similar to a Fender custom shop relic? Just wondering if there was something comparable out there I could try in a shop to get an idea. Mostly because I prefer glossy necks and have no idea of a glossy relic'd neck would feel like. 

 

Thanks in advance!

I have a number of relic’d limelight’s and none of them are glossy. They are all smooth and easy playing but far far from glossy. They just feel like worn smooth wood. I don’t have a modern Fender relic to offer a comparison for you but I can say that it’s very similar to the finish of my genuine ‘59 P bass although a very different profile of course. I can highly recommend Mark’s work.

Black and maple loveliness 😃👍🏻
