I really don't know why I desperately want this. I messed around (expensively) with valve pres for years 'til it finally dawned that they don't suit me - I much prefer a SS tone - the crispness and immediacy really suit my playing style. Maybe it's the looks - the DH is outrageously beautiful and I'm amazed it's still here. If it hangs around much longer, my resistance will evaporate and I'll have another valve unit that won't suit my style. At the current price, this is a steal IMO. And it's just up the road

One of the few high-end pres I haven't used but if they're half as good as their reputation, my failure to try one is a situation that should be reversed...

Amazed this is still here - these are real quality and this bass is a steal! Best £600 you can spend on here just now IMO

As a former Limelight owner, I can attest to the superb quality, feel and playability of these instruments - a real pleasure to play and none of the stress of getting dings in gig situations. Fantastic colour and the sound of these things is immense - I know there's some conjecture as to the source of the pickups but the Js in mine sounded amazing - very vintage Fender. This is an absolute steal at this price - I don't need another bass but I'm really tempted. Good luck - 'really shouldn't need it

Is the refin (body and neck) nitro? Do you know who did the refin? Looks beautiful

Absolutely staggering

Best big stage amp I've ever played through - unbelievable heft

Speechless. Anniversary electronics?

Is this a Bird Brothers case - if so, they're superb!

Bargain!

SOLD - thanks for the interest Hi all, this one needs little introduction - the '61 Relic Limelight Jazz originally specced by Discreet and coveted by many. Probably the reference Limelight with pics all over the place. There's a thread in which I previously thought about selling here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/251376-withdrawn-limelight-61-jazz-heavy-relic-olympic-white-l750/page__hl__limelight%20jazz%20relic"]http://basschat.co.u...%20jazz%20relic[/url] This comes with a Spitfire pick guard - around £130 to import from the US and absolutely outstanding (I was offered £110 for the guard alone). I've just moved and can't find the original guard - I'll include if it turns up but no guarantees I'm afraid. The barrels were frozen and have been replaced with very nice brass saddles. Comes with a functional but scruffy Spider ABS case. Playability is amazingly good - the action was high for me so I managed to get it right down - incredibly low for a Fender type bass. Lovely feel and stunning looks. I don't play long-scale at all, and if I do, then it's my Will Lee necked Shuker. Otherwise, this wouldn't be going - it's amazing. Only one image for now, and those at the link above for now but loads more available and I'll upload tomorrow. Collection from Manchester of Birmingham. I can ship but with a bit of difficulty. Price is a firm £825 and no trades thanks - I'm reducing an over-blown collection.

These are beautiful in every way - I had the 5 string version. The 3TS finish is just gorgeous. As good as pretty much any high-end hand built, luthier bass

Bought my first Shuker a few months ago - PJ with many JJ features (and many more high end refinements and appointments). it's outrageously good - playability is amazing and ergonomics are lovely. This is a bargain IMO!

These are absolutely beautiful instruments - sheer class. I have 251 (very close - probably within a couple of months). Mine had the same 'milky' finish problem at the side of the neck so I had a neck only re-fin a few months ago (from the guys that originally undertook the finishing for Status back in the mid '80s) In my opinion, this is an excellent price - I was offered a great deal more for mine just a year ago. Someone is going to get a classic bass here

How cute - I like this very much - unique, individual and very cool!

had the 5 string 'non X' version of this - outstanding instruments with the highest level of attention to detail and a lovely feel

Some of the finest woodworking I've seen! Is that neck through or slotted - nice to see an image from the end of the body

I really don't know what's happening in the world of bass! Outrageously cheap IMO

Last couple of bumps - I have a viewing on this on Wednesday and if it doesn't go then, it's off on consignment. Collection from Birmingham for £1030

Wow, what a price! This looks beautiful - some of the nicest necks around in my opinion
