ash Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1408998746' post='2535443'] You must keep the Limelight, buy the P back and give them both to somebody of sound mind, to ensure they are properly looked after. Hmph, sound mind, didn't think that one through did I. [/quote] You were obviously thinking of me Karl..... Seriously nice P bass that Mark, you must not sell that Hayman though!
theyellowcar Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1408997584' post='2535413'] Thanks, Dave. This is 'the one', if you want to have a look...

That is truly phenomenal. When it's back in the stable can I come and visit?
discreet Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 [quote name='antnee' timestamp='1408998479' post='2535437'] GLWTS. Hope you get the monies to buy back that beauty! [/quote] [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1408998746' post='2535443'] Good luck getting your P back Mark. [/quote] Thank you. [quote name='ash' timestamp='1408999778' post='2535455'] Seriously nice P bass that Mark, you must not sell that Hayman though! [/quote] Don't worry Ash, the Hayman's definitely not going anywhere. [quote name='theyellowcar' timestamp='1408999823' post='2535456'] Ohh wow. That is truly phenomenal. When it's back in the stable can I come and visit? [/quote] I don't see why not...
Raslee Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Whooaaa, definitely needs a tort plate that P ....and what were you saying about J & P rivalry haha. Joking aside that is a lovely P you got there...nearly as original as my Limelight 70's P Nice story though mate and I'd do just the same, good call
MikanHannille Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Wow. Not usually into reliced basses. But this one is a beaut! My god.
Bassman Sam Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Great story Mark, you must feel like you're getting a limb back. The Limelight is a stunner. It's just a shame that my pension and lump sum don't come through until February or it would be mine. The for sale section will see some action from me then though. You don't need a GLWTS, I doubt it will be here tomorrow.

discreet Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 [quote name='Tonci' timestamp='1409031395' post='2535580'] Cool looking bass! [/quote] Thank you. I am open to (reasonable) offers.
Thunderbird Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Some one buy this so Mark can get his gorgeous P bass back
discreet Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1409038884' post='2535616'] I'll be watching this thread with interest [/quote] Don't add interest Dave, I'm having enough trouble as it is...
miles'tone Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Wow, already?! :-O GLWTS man, I know that regretful feeling of letting the bass that should've been a lifer go (except I have no idea where mine is now, even if I could afford it) I hope this beaut goes quickly for you So you can get excaliber back

Jigster Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I know Mark sometimes buys these back? Any chance?
sblueplanet Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I would have some real tasty basses in my collection had I been able to hold on to everyone Ive ever owned so good luck getting back the 'special one'!
