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 There's a thread in which I previously thought about selling here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/251376-withdrawn-limelight-61-jazz-heavy-relic-olympic-white-l750/page__hl__limelight%20jazz%20relic"]http://basschat.co.u...%20jazz%20relic[/url] This comes with a Spitfire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

A few more bumps before consignment

Still here and still lovely! I can ship this in the UK with shipping included in the price (excludes insurance)

[quote name='steve-soar' timestamp='1431456846' post='2771595'] Jesus, what a bass and what a bargain. GLWTS. [/quote] Thanks for this - it really is outrageously lovely and I'm at a bit of a loss as to why it hasn't sold - a very flat market I suspect!

This is still here and I'm back in the country

These International colours from the mid 70s are among my favourites ever on a Fender - absolutely lovely!

I've had enough Wals to know that they don't actually suit me, however, that looks absolutely lovely! If I thought I'd have any chance of playing it, I'd be in trouble

Lovely - what's the nut width?

I've played this when it was in the UK - all of us that had the pleasure would concur that this is without doubt one of the finest J types around. The neck is unbelievable - as close to a well worn-in 60-61 J as you'll find. £1400 is a joke IMO - if I had the dosh it would be long gone

I don't get on with the necks on these at all well, but this bass really is something very special.

[/quote] And it's just over the Snake, through Glossop and next big town along. A fine selection of pastries, biscuits, teas, coffees, wines and beers awaits

More nibbles but still here
