Hey guys, thanks for all the interest but this bass has now gone back up to Scotland after a short visit! Cheers . Please lock this thread.

PM'd I think I'll be having this one as it'll go nicely alongside my fretless Thumb BO Broadneck !! Also as far as I know these weren't custom orders, just weren't asked for that much so not many made. If you put in the serial numbers of this LX and my Thumb (F10742604) into the Warwick serial number checker ([url="http://www.warwickbass.com/en/Warwick---Support--Serial-Number.html#current_site_id"]http://www.warwickba...current_site_id[/url]) there is no mention of either of them being a custom version. Also the article numbers, when put into google do come up with references to both the basses being broadnecked versions. Anyhow nice bass either way

Hey guys, now on hold again, cheers for your comments and interest. [quote name='tom1946' timestamp='1407698942' post='2523166'] Did Mark say why he couldn't spray sunburst? I can and have. [/quote] Sorry Tom, no idea![quote name='cameltoe' timestamp='1407705234' post='2523254'] Does anyone know where he sources the necks? Necks make or break a P bass for me, I'd hope they are top quality because I would like a limelight. [/quote] Again, don't really know. I was told that he uses branded neck like All Parts etc but when I took this one off the heel was plain with no marks on. However regarding the quality I'd have no worries as it is also of a very good standard

Hey guys, Martin kindly reopened this thread as the bass is now available again, cheers

Hi folks, I'm putting up for sale my Limelight '62 P Bass in Heavy Relic Olympic White over Sunburst, no 00125. I bought this bass off hear a few months ago and thought it was a keeper, however as my other bass didn't move I thought I'd have a go at selling this one. After I set it up it plays really well with a nice low action and no fretbuzz. I needed to use a shim to get the action to how it is now. After emailing Mark (owner of Limelight basses) he said he's pretty sure the body is Alder, although not 100% on it (as he can't spray sunburst he sources used bodies as a base and reworks them). The neck has a fairly chunky, yet comfortable profile and has rolled edges and is of a one piece maple design with clay does and side markers, the strings are Lakland flats. Due to the body being used I decided to use some matchsticks to repack the holes in it to ensure a tighter screw fit. Not shown but included is the thumb rest and screws. I did have to rewire the controls due to an issue with the earthing foil underneath the controls, now there is an earth wire between the jack and pots (and also an extra long earth wire from the bridge, to help when moving the pickguard about when you have it off). There is a slight gap between the pickguard and body below the jack/last pickguard screw area. Also in the control cavity the routing looks to have been slightly extend by hand at the end of the pocket (see pics below). Lastly the height adjustment screws on the saddles are frozen (due to the process used to age them). After speaking again to Mark about this he suggested that a blowtorch then a dunk it water would free them. I have not done this yet as the height was set up perfectly when I received it. I'd want £450 collected from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire for this please. This is less than what I have in it, but priced lower as it wasn't known that the body was a reworked one when I purchased it. This does really play well, but as stated above my other bass didn't sell so I'll stick to playing that one instead. Trade wise I would [b][i]only[/i][/b] consider a part x with cash your way for either a fretted Warwick LX broadneck 5 string or fretted Warwick Streamer Stage 1 5 string, both with volutes please. In the nicest possible way please don't offer anything else as I don't want you to be disappointed when it's declined .
