  1. Oh dear Bilbo, bit scary, that you are thinking of a Floyd tribute one of these days
  2. Sadly, this is the about the 5th of these I've heard of this year. Certainly I know of 3 in the north west, in a very short space of time. It is a hard, costly, lesson to learn. One of our gaytartists always leaves his gear in his car, it's only a matter of time sadly. Doesn't matter how hard it's pissing at 2am on a Sunday, my van gets unloaded. I hope you get gear back, I'm keeping an eye in the NW for you.
  3. I've managed to live without ever buying from Apple. It was clear to me from very early on their pricing was a rip off and frankly not something I would tolerate. Fair price for buyer and seller? Up to both parties to consider their requirements. Music industry for most new creative's is basically shagged, imo.
  4. Only up until my old Limelight goes. If you want to know how good this bass is, open the build diary link (in 1st post) and go to post #102 in the build diary. Not to mention it's a bit of an eyecatcher
  5. Hiya. 1. Is that Sunset Orange? 2. Where are you based? 3. Will you courier at buyers cost? Cheers, Karl.
  6. [quote name='Mike' timestamp='1434999967' post='2804629'] If you send an email the guy is very helpful! Thanks Mike. [/quote][quote name='discreet' timestamp='1434963155' post='2804106'] I sold mine too, and also very much regret it. Good luck with getting yours back, Karl. Mine's gone forever I think, I had to prioritise my 76P, then I needed to spend quite a chunk on an unrelated issue, so there it is. [/quote] Well Mark I'm hoping my Dusty a like goes before my old Limelight does. Twitchy nethers
  7. Marinus, what are you doing to us I will be the one to ask, what does it weigh please? Fabulous looking bass. Top guy to deal with. Jeez, I hope it's heavy or I could be in trouble again
  8. Hell's bells Tom, you are worse than me for turnaround Good job you are amazing to deal with!
  9. Thanks Mike. They are out of stock, but I'll keep looking
  10. What a stunning, iconic looking Precision
  11. [quote name='Mike' timestamp='1434652016' post='2801573'] My limelight has arrived! 66 Jazz style, but P/J, with Master Vol/Blend/Tone. Note the tuning heads I sourced in Germany It's a little lighter than the dark sherwood green I was going for but it's still lovely looking. Mark forgot the chrome pickup cover over the P pickup but that's ordered and I will fit it myself. Looks fantastic and amazingly authentic. Sounds wonderful too!

Whilst we are on, any chance of a link to the German lollipops please? Cheers, Karl.
  12. So, if I was to sell a comfy chair to Cardinal Fang for £750.......... Have a bump for messing with my head
  13. A word of warning. If you sell your Limelight, you will regret it. I sold mine and I very much regret it. It has come back up for sale, I'm going to try and get her back. Keep your fingers crossed for me please
  14. It's the Warmoth "standard" back shape Sean, Jazz profile. 38 mm/ 1.5 inch GraphTech White TUSQ XL nut, radius is 10". Shaft Birdseye Maple, board Birdseye Maple.
  15. My old Limelight is back up for sale. This is all I have to fund it. I'm going to provide a link to Sean's build. I will provide a tatty hardcase. It has a NEW REVERSE HEADSTOCK, JAZZ NUT WIDTH Warmoth neck, satin finish. That cost me nearly £400 on it's own. It weighs 7lb 9 oz, daft light. The TV Jones pup is very powerful. There are a couple of paint chips. I will clean the bass before it goes( I was gigging it last night, see photo). Yes, I did put the false Fender decal on the headstock. IT IS NOT A FENDER. I am into this bass for over a grand however I want £700 cash plus £35 for insured mainland UK delivery. That will buy me my old Limelight back. Feedback at bottom of post. A FENDER Custom Shop Dusty Hill will put you back well over £2k, this is a lot less. Any trial in Wigan, any questions, cheers, Karl.

  16. I should never have sold this! Good luck (I think ).
  17. Oooh, we likes this don't we my preciousssssss
  18. The weight might really help your sale And yes, we are nearly all busy as well.
  19. How's Cardinal Fang? Sorry, I've wanted to say that for years (for the old Python fans). Bump for a great looking bass.
  20. Thanks Isabass, sadly a bit on the heavy side for an old crock like me. GREAT PRICE IMO, somebody is going to be VERY happy. GLWTS
  21. 2 x 10 that weighs only 15kgs. Markbass Traveler 102P neo bass cab. Made in ITALY Excellent condition with Roqsolid cover. 2 x 10 neo speakers, 8 ohm, 400 watts, only 15kgs. Would match very nicely with an Orange Bass Terror set at 8 ohms, getting the full 500 watts. Made of Italian Poplar, supposedly lighter than the new Indonesian models. Speculation, but it is possible that the Italian made ones will become more difficult to get hold of, especially in such good condition. It is also unlikely this will depreciate much further. Prefer collection from Wigan but will courier insured at £25 extra, UK mainland. HAPPY to meet up within Brum, Leeds, Carlisle area, at no extra cost. Any trial in Wigan, feedback link at bottom of post. WILL consider trades for 4 string bass or micro head, I have cash available to put to a deal. Cheers, Karl.

  22. [quote name='Norm' timestamp='1434381062' post='2799052'] Great price granted but collection only will reduce number of potential buyers. T'other side of t'country that, if it was Burnham on sea I could be persuaded! GLWTS [/quote] If I may make so bold, a £25 padded gig bag plus some bubble wrap, a bike box from Halfords. Delivered at £750. That way you would open it up for sale to the 80% or so potential buyers that don't live close enough. For example, I live in Wigan. It would cost me £60 in fuel, plus 8 hours driving. So I'm out. £750 couriered, I might well be in. Just trying to be helpful
