Fisheth Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 It's going to be either LPB or BM for me, but the green is ooft. So it could still win out 1 Quote

That is very nearly what I have ordered except I have gone for the very light relic with a candy apple red finish. Great minds think alike! Edited February 5, 2018 by Hutton Quote
peety Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 (edited) Spooky hahaha was originally going for black black maple then I saw this and couldn't resist Wasn't 100 percent sure of the gold adonised plate so I've ordered an extra one in parchment as well for a bit of variety Edited February 5, 2018 by peety Quote
Marc S Posted February 6, 2018 Posted February 6, 2018 That looks a good choice Peety BTW, I'm not normally a fan of Gold annodised plates But there's something about that one on the CS pictured .... the maple board and red colour.... I think the gold plate looks good on it. Nice idea to have a choice of plates though! I'm intrigued at how it will look with parchment Quote
Marius Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Hi Everybody! I am new at basschat.co.uk and came here because I googled for Limlight basses. Some months ago I threwing my PJ Bass made by a german luthier (Herbert Müller from Cologne) into the market to sell or trade. And now I got this beauty out of a trade: Limelight 00203 - a '64 Jazzbass, Olympic White over Sunburst. The picture is taken from Marks website, so credits to him. It took some time to get familiar with the neck shape, but now we are bound in blood. This thing sounds really fantastic. Last week I put out an order to build a Limelight PJ Bass in Sonic Blue and a Maple Neck ... now I have to wait until the new PJ will arrive. For sure it will wear Marks Logo on the headstock instead of a 7ender Decal. Best regards from germany, Marius 2 Quote
drlargepants Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 I think I may have to get one of these. Vintage looking but modern neck radius and frets. Plus I won’t cry when it gets attacked by a cymbal. Quote

In terms of Jazzbass there is only one he can apply. It is standard Jazzbass width of 1.5" (38.1mm) on the nut. The profile of mine is much closer to an oval C-Shape than tp an U- or a modern C-Shape. I really like thin and slim necks like the Geddy Lee or the Squier Classic Vibe 60s ones. 1 Quote
Hutton Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Just for the record here is the newly arrived Limelight 00218. 1 Quote
peety Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 Just got this photo from Mark Dakota red with gold adonised guard 1957 precision and a spare parchment guard Mark says it looks brighter in the photo than the actual whatever it is looking good 2 Quote
Marius Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 So, there it is … my next Limelight the 00211: This time it's a Custom Precision Bass. Alder body, nitro cellulose paint in sonic blue over olympic white, one piece maple Jazzbass neck, Gotoh vintage reverse tuner, light relic. I am blown away … Mark build this the last weeks. Sounds prefect with DR Pure Blues strings and its Limelight Pickups. For sure it got the right logo on the headstock . Quote
timmchale2009 Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 This is my little beauty. Body and neck Limelight, House Of Tone Custom Jazz Pups and wiring loom, Fender Branded tuners and celluloid aged scratch plate. Literally the best jazz I have ever owned/ever will own. Just ticks every box. 3 Quote
knicknack Posted July 6, 2018 Posted July 6, 2018 Afternoon Limelight lovers!

knicknack Posted July 6, 2018 Posted July 6, 2018 Great stuff, thanks! He really doesn't seem to want to go down that route himself, but I think I'll end up putting it in place for him! 1 Quote
