TTT

... an amazing finish on that one you have there!

TTT now with a specific trade option added folks.

Hi there Three, The original parts taken off went onto a Fender Roadworn jazz I sold on here not too long ago, so I don't have them. I do have the tug bar and bridge off the Roadworn that is the same style (60s with threaded saddles) and matches the aging of the VVT control plate. I also have a Fender soft gig bag that will be included in the sale. Peace.

Hey folks, I'm selling my Limelight custom jazz (00157) as I need to pay for house repairs unfortunately. It is being put up tentatively so don't be surprised if I pull it at any moment!! I bought it off here late last year from the original owner (see this thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/267706-sold-limelight-60s-jazz/page__p__2872875__hl__limelight%20jazz__fromsearch__1#entry2872875"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2872875[/url]). I've since changed the control plate to a VVT off a Fender Roadworn that I used to own. I've also changed the bridge to an Omega version in chrome (an ALLPARTS copy of the Leo Quan Badass II). I've got some Status Halfwound strings on it (40-100) and after buying some Hosco nut files I lowered the nut slots and filed the bridge saddle grooves. The neck is dead straight with a low action, there is minimal buzzing when played unplugged, however the action could always be adjusted a little to avoid this if necessary. I've adjusted the balance of the pickups this evening so that they're more even. The neck is fairly thick front to back, but the normal jazz width of 1.5". I personally prefer this shape compared to slimmer ones front to back. The 60s style bridge and tug bar off the Roadworn jazz, and a Fender soft gig bag will be included in the sale. I'm now after [s]£700[/s] £625 (£550 limited time only folks for just bass) collected from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. The original purchaser said he paid around £1200 for this last year when he custom ordered it, so I believe the asking price is very fair. I would also now consider a trade + cash my way for a Mark Bass TRV 121H (preferably Italian made). I already have one and wouldn't mind a second to match it when needed. If you want to come and have a play feel free.

... are the photos set to private as I can't see them.

Now sold thanks, please freeze chaps.

... Looks like a great deal, glwts

On hold peeps.

TTT, now to include postage.

.... I think I also used to own it at one point. The pickups are indeed Haussel (http://www.haeussel.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47%3Ajb-pickups&catid=6%3Abass-pickups&Itemid=6&lang=en) and I traded it for a 4 string Jazz + cash a while back. It's a very nice bass and if I didn't already have 3 5ers I'd be tempted myself .

.... please freeze, this item is now sold

On hold

Hey all, I bought this at a great price, I don't intend to use it so I'll pass it on for the same ([b]£30 + postage[/b]). The original owner (a fellow BCer) ordered it from Kiogon (another BCer ) at what he estimated in total cost him about £75! It hasn't been used and still in it's delivery box. The control plate is in chrome, with the control knobs being of a push on design. Tbh I'm not sure if it's Volume, Volume, Tone or a Master Volume, Balance, Tone setup. Either way it has the addition of a switch that changes the pickups between parallel (standard Jazz) and series (think P bass). It's all passive with quality components used. As an added bonus it's designed for a solderless install using the connector provided (instructions included).

I'm in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. If you have any questions just PM please. Peace.

Hey all, I bought this a while back with the intention of fitting it to my now sold Roadworn Jazz (I was planning to emulate Bobby Vega's Shark bass). Anyhow the Roadworn has gone so this is surplus to requirements. [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/jazz%20bass%20bits%20004_zpsvbn6yras.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/jazz%20bass%20bits%20005_zpsztdkhexj.jpg.html"][/url] It's basically an ALLPARTS copy of a Leoquan Badass II bridge, I bought 2 originally (nickel and chrome finishes) and put the chrome one onto my Limelight jazz. I've had loads of Badass II bridges before and these Omega versions compare very well. From the ALLPARTS UK online store ([url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/products/bass-bridge-4-string-omega-bass-bridge-top-loading-nickel"]http://www.allparts....-loading-nickel[/url]) the RRP is £80. I'm asking £40 posted for this still unopened example . I'm based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire if you want to collect, no probs. PM me if you're interested please. Peace.

... all sold now and thanks for the interest folks.

[quote name='stubass' timestamp='1451764123' post='2943272'] It's actually a shame that you had to re position the bridge pickup. Lovely jazz otherwise. [/quote] it's only in it's original routing, so could be put back in the 'factory' holes if needed, but thanks for the comment anyhow.
