You can get another easy enough But that Limelight is harder to replace.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yea.. My gas had been surprisingly low since getting my limelights too.... Haha, sorry. That's blatant baiting! But I have been pretty settled since having the precision, jazz, and a 5 string sandberg precision type. I'm wanting to get rid of my other basses so those guys get my full attention. The precision is really good but I got it early on and his relicing wasn't as good as it is now, each one he does looks better than the last, a blessing and a curse.

[/quote] Having seen 2 examples of fab Limelight basses, I have to say I agree with you Photos can give you a good overall idea of how they look, but "in the flesh" the 2 I saw just seemed to ooze a mojo / atmosphere.... They sounded great, and were lovely to play too So I think I'm going to trade in my MM and order a Limelight in the new year (lets get Christmas out of the way first! lol) Mark seems a great guy to deal with, and seems to give a fair trade price My only problem, is that I'm now "agonising" over choice of colour / desogn It's got to be a P bass, with slimmer Jazz-style neck, I'm thinking about a YOB bass - which is '63 BUT - I've got a hankering for a P with maple neck, and apparently, Fender didn't do any Maple necked P's in '63.... I've got a Classic Vibe Squier P, in '63 colours - Fiesta Red, with red tort scratchplate So does that satisfy my YOB urge? Do I fancy a P in White, with maple neck? Do I want one in black? Should I opt for Candy Apple Red? .... quite fancy one in purple actually.... Help! Edited December 1, 2014 by Marc S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pajhartley Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Late responder, but here's mine (pics off Mark's website). Absolutely love it, it's my #1 bass for most things & better than all other Fenders I've played (& I've played a few). I don't know what pickups he's used but they sound fantastic, gutsy & bright. I love the relicing, "genuine-looking" or not, & the dime is a good talking point. I think this must be one of the only Limelights without the Limelight signature as well!
