[quote name='Pow_22' timestamp='1432069533' post='2777930'] Of all the 'name' relics ive seen ive always thought the limelights looked a bit....naff. Dont look remotely genuine and a bit like a kid has gone at it with a sander. Nowhere near as genuine looking as the likes of nash and sandberg in my humble [/quote] I know what you mean, I've not seen any relics that match up to the Sandbergs.

[quote name='bakerster135' timestamp='1432063960' post='2777836'] Have you seen the Limelight thread here!? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/243644-the-show-us-your-limelight-thread/page__pid__2773482__st__570#entry2773482"]http://basschat.co.u...70#entry2773482[/url] I had a Limelight 64-style Jazz for a while, and it was awesome! Looked as good as the real thing, and certainly sounded as good. Also had an older Glockenlang loaded Sandberg Jazz too, for about two weeks...It was lovely, but I just never got used to the feel or sound. [/quote] How so, what did you think was different about the sound/feel, and how did the Limelight and Sandberg compare?

Does anybody have any experience of any of these brands at all? Even better has anyone ABC'd them, its a longshot I know.. Its a marmite topic, but I'm getting some relic GAS. I like the look of a beaten up Jazz, but I fancy one with 2 MM pickups, like the Sandberg TM2. I'd like (in case you're interested) a 4 string version of the above, with tortoiseshell scratchplate, rosewood board, and reverse headstock (not painted). I haven't tried any of the brands I mentioned apart from Sandberg, so any opinions would be most welcome! Thanks

[quote name='Bass Culture' timestamp='1430296712' post='2759874'] Clarky, how did it work with you being able to choose your specific bass? Was this an option you were offered after you added one to your basket or did you have some contact with the seller outside of the website/sales portal? (You'll appreciate you can see I'm now giving this some serious thought!....) [/quote] http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/chuya-online/item/90658/ I emailed them before I purchased and asked to see what basses they had in stock, they sent me a stack of pics and I chose the one I liked the best and then went ahead with the purchase, it was really simple and they couldn't be more helpful! They seem to have more of the better grain pattern ones in Japan, Arai UK This is one of the pics they sent me.

I actually love that this doesn't have a SB1000 traditional parallel neck, I love my 1984 model, but this just plays beautifully!

[quote name='Bass Culture' timestamp='1430247508' post='2759532'] Forgive the inquisitiveness but what's the string spacing at the bridge and nut width - if it's not too much trouble? I'm hoping in a perverse way that the nut's going to be wider than about 42mm so I can dismiss it as too wide for my teeny weeny, middle aged hands... [/quote] I believe its 18/19mm spacing (can't remember exactly) and 38mm Jazz width at the nut... sorry!!

PRICE DROP to £50 510 series of bass bridge assemblies allows bass players to ” Dial in ” their own individual sound that will suit their unique playing styles and sonic qualities of their chosen bass. 303 models have base-plates made from a specially blended Aluminum Alloy we call “RES-O-LITE”. Due to the inherent multi frequency ” resonance transfer properties of “RES-O-LITE”, a wider range of frequencies encompassing ground pounding bass to articulate highs are transmitted to the body of the guitar. 404/J510 have hard zinc base-plates that impart a flatter frequency response. This is sometimes preferred by bass players with active system where EQ can be adjusted to their specific needs. “BO”(Brass) saddles. Now you can design your own Bass Bridge for your unique sound. Never before has such a diverse ” Tonal palette” been available for this most expressive of stringed instruments. Brand new. Taken off a brand new bass and replaced with different colour hardware.

PRICE DROP to £60 T-REX Sweeper Bass Chorus Pedal The Sweeper has everything you need to get the full range of classic bass chorus sounds – using just a few simple controls. DEPTH controls the amount of chorus effect. Turn it down for a subtle chorus, crank it up for that great full sweep. Use the RATE control to set the speed of your sweep. A fast rate combined with a low depth level gives you a light shimmering sound, while the slower rate and higher depth creates a dramatic chorus effect. VOLUME controls the overall output of The Sweeper, and the INPUT LEVEL on the side of the unit helps you avoid overdrive distortion by turning down the input signal. If the red overload light comes on, the input level is too high. Note: If you’re in the studio or have a stereo live setup, try using The Sweeper’s stereo outputs for a truly mind-blowing stereo chorus!

TECH 21 - VT Bass Pedal The tower of power pumping through a stack of 10-inchers is the legendary bass tone for players who enjoy being heard. From chunky funk with the ubiquitous flip top, to the higher gain growl of indie rock. Still need more? Lean on the Character control for the fat distortion of Crimson and King’s X. It all sounds massive DI. Clean SVT® thump to dirty earthquaking rump, you dial it in.
