F/S Limelight '64 Jazz Bass - Olympic White with hardcase £895 Chorley, Lancs. PR6

[ead]

For sale is my Limelight copy of a real ’64 Jazz Bass.  The last picture being the original real item.  This is a real wrench as I love this bass, but increasing arthritis in my hands means my playing is getting severely restricted these days.

 

The bass has been aged to look like the original but was made last year and has some lovely checking.  It has never been taken out of the house.

Specs are:

 

• Alder Body
• Maple neck with Rosewood board (vintage radius)
• Aged Olympic White finish with nitrocellulose varnish
• Aged hardware with period-correct reverse tuners
• Classic volume/volume/tone electronics using high quality components
• Limelight custom pickups

 

In addition the bass comes with a good quality hard case.  The bass weighs 4.2kgs or 9lbs 3oz in old money; so pretty light for a jazz bass.

 

Collection or a half-way meet-up is preferred as at the moment I don’t have any suitable packaging to courier the bass.  I will try to find something if needs be.

I’d be happy to answer any questions or take more pictures if there is a detail you would like to see more of.

 

Here are some pics.  These are the Classic and Cool pics and I have added one of my own to prove ownership:
