Many thanks for this Karl. I would certainly travel to Edinburgh. I’ll view your ads with increased interest. You always have great basses for sale. You’re a top man.
-
Is this the middle of England or the U.K.? Also, Karl would you come halfway to meet me?
-
This is my position exactly apart from the different location.
-
Ok folks I surrender. I seem to be alone in my thoughts. It is perhaps a geographical problem which is mine alone. All I will say is that when I have advertised basses on here I have been told by many folk that they are interested in the bass but that I am too far away. If they are far away from me then I am also far away from them.
-
I’m happy to agree to differ.
-
Pardon me but this is an unfair comment for the reasons I state above.
-
Return rail journey costs from Aberdeen are prohibitive. It would add far too much on to the price of the bass. I also should say I have never had any problems with couriers apart from late deliveries. Just lucky I guess.
-
Very good!🤣
-
Meeting halfway is all very well but I live in Aberdeen.

A 1973 Precision in good nick has just gone unsold on eBay with a starting bid of £1,000. It was a collection only auction.
-
Is it just my imagination or are there more basses now being sold here and other places (eBay) which are on a collection only basis. There are basses which I could well have been interested in buying but they go unsold as they are collection in person only. It is not difficult to obtain a box and enough packing material so that the bass can be sent by courier. Are some sellers becoming lazy?
-
What a shame that the original case and pickup aren't included. -
Your bass is not a 1984 bass for many reasons. Looking at the serial number it looks like your bass started life in 1978. I have no idea why the neck is stamped 1984. It may be not a year being indicated but the number 1,984. Do you have a picture of what it says on the end of the heel? -
Unfortunately, I live in the guitar shop wasteland of Aberdeen in north east Scotland. There is only one music store here (Kennys) and their stock of basses is very limited. Many thanks also to Mudpup for the offer, it is much appreciated.

Thanks for all the replies. I think that the Classic 50s Lacquer has got my attention. Some thinking and negotiations with the keeper of the purse now need to take place.
-
What is the difference (apart from relicing) between the Mex 50s Road Worn and the Mex 50s Classic Precision. I’m sure there is great wisdom amongst forumites on this issue.
-
Ok my friend. I misunderstood and stand corrected.👍 -
I would have done exactly the same. Why go to all the trouble of making it look exactly like a vintage Fender and then miss out a vital feature like the decal on the headstock.This is a cracking bass. Mark is superb at producing these instruments for ordinary mortals who want the look and sound but can’t afford genuine prices.
-
Limelight basses did come with Fender logos if the buyer requested it. Ask Mark at Classic and Cool guitars for the current position regarding this. It has the Limelight serial number on the back. They are excellent basses but I have no idea why you think a Limelight logo'd bass would be worth more than an original pre-cbs Fender.
-
It's a Limelight.
-
Ah irony. Ok, you are forgiven!👍 -
What a ridiculous statement. As has been said numerous times on these forums - beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

SOLD Tobias Classic Pre-Gibson 4 string PRICE DROP!!

I would absolutely love this. What a beautiful bass. If by any quirk of fate I find myself in funds I'll be back. Have a free bump! -
Thanks Paulo!

I need to buy a bridge and was considering the Hipshot A style. I see that it comes in aluminium (cheaper) or brass. Looking for advice in helping me to make my choice.
