EliasMooseblaster Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 [quote name='happynoj' timestamp='1426531553' post='2719005'] If only his bloody signature wasn't scrawled all over the headstock! Why can't they put them on the back? I love the way this bass looks but I couldn't play it out in case people thought I liked U2. EDIT: And if I was going to have an Adam Clayton sig model, it would this one... [/quote] Gordon Bennett, how many signature basses does this man have to his name?!

Mike Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1426776106' post='2721816'] Limelight won't build you an unreliced bass as it requires a higher standard of finish. I wanted a custom jazz and that is what I was told... I ordered one from Peterbuilt in the end. [/quote] Thanks - I actually like the relic'd look so fine for me. Probably keep it light though! I have a 1975 original Fender Jazz which is quite relic'd for real! EMAIL SENT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 An answer already! No butterbean tuners sadly but an encouraging fast response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesBass Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 [quote name='Mike' timestamp='1426510759' post='2718598'] The Fender Adam Clayton model. Is it the colour? Matching headstock? Blocks? Butterbean tuners? It's £1467 from GAK. Why do I want it? Am I mad? I don't even like U2. What do you people think? [url="http://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-adam-clayton-jazz-bass-sherwood-green-metallic/103163"]http://www.gak.co.uk...metallic/103163[/url] [/quote] I've gotta say this bass keeps catching my eye! I'm not sure what it is about it though! I'm quite tempted to spec a Limelight out to get something similar done. Though I'd probably look to have reverse tuners, an old style bridge, bound neck as well as blocks, and stack knobs. Question is, do I go for Sherwood Green Metallic, or Burgundy Mist Metallic? ...
