I have the AVRI '57 in white blonde and the AVRI '62 3TS, strung with GHS Precision Flats or LaBellas. I could never afford a real vintage - these are perfect P- basses to me, the best I'll ever have I'm sure. If you've got too much cash, do what you want with but I don't think you'll see, feel or hear a difference worth the extra IMHO

Good Health and Happiness to all, may 2018 be kind to everyone. Best Wishes - Happy New Year Cheerz, John

Great idea, I'd like to do one of those

No! Gross over reaction

That's not what I'm saying exactly, my understanding is they use genuine Fender parts to assemble after reworking to their or customers spec. I also assumed they had some sort of agreement with Fender? Please correct me and explain if that's wrong.

I thought Limelight assembled basses from genuine Fender parts - customised, is that right?

I would expect the Mosfets to be typically about £15 a pair! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10N20-10P20-Audio-Amplifier-Mosfet-TO3-2SJ50-2SK135-Exicon/361426023600

I'm nowhere near Glasgow and can't help with the routing - but could certainly do you a wiring loom you can fit in ten minutes - no soldering

I hope the neighbourhood cats don't smell it - in the shed - with the door open - see where I'm going with this?

One of our cats p1553d in the VHS player once, had to throw it away and the video player

Bloody youngsters!

Another leap forward - everything is very much quicker down here by the sea, in the sun Well done Cheerz

@Chewie You worry too much

The SD SPB-3 I repaired the other day, I remember had identical resistance reading from each coil, shouldn't make any difference which way the 2 halves are fitted. Cheerz, John

Grant got in touch for a couple of wiring looms, great comms and instant payment, a pleasure to deal with start to finish. Cheerz, John

Another P-bass wiring loom for Tom, as always a true gent to deal with, forever a pleasure. Cheerz, John

Pink Floyd - if only GP hadn't got that gig

Most excellent

I know what you mean I reckon the experience was a easy ride really!

Yes indeed

Good shout!

I've just been thinking it would have been Jimi's 75th birthday the other day, I would have loved to have been in Noel's place a few times! Who would you love to have played with? I first saw Hendrix on Hasting pier 22 October 1967, then again almost 3 years later in 1970 at the Isle of Wight festival, a couple of weeks before he met his untimely end. Would he have still been playing/writing today at 75 I wonder I'm getting old ?

A long long time ago I sometimes used a Gibson SG in my band, it wasn't a good look like an elephant with a stick of rhubarb I remember someone saying.
