Sad to see such a beautiful bass have to go, but great to see it going for one of the many reasons bassists are among the best people alive. Bump for the bass and for your friend.

Great color Kirk! Say, you could leave that with me for a week or 12 and then I could tell everyone how great it is!

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea...

Good luck Kirk...

I bought my LG used from Kirk, and it was a nice experience.

Gilsonite · #11 01-14-2011, 05:29 PM

Just curious if this is the new larger body size or the original flavor?

diglo · #12 01-14-2011, 06:10 PM

Man, I want this bass, but....

OH!! my God!!!!

Jerry J · #15 01-14-2011, 09:42 PM

That is a really sweet looking bass. And it sounds like a grand humanitarian purpose.

Hey Kirk!

Beautiful bass man.

Bump for a stand up cat and what I am sure is a phenomenal instrument - I have tried a couple of Kirk's personal ACs and let me just say...

.

The future owner should call Jimmy and get an extra tort guard.

Thank you everyone!
This bass has the normal J body size it is Not the larger one...

The lower horn is custom cut and slightly narrower which allows easier access up high...This and my new Dinky LG 5 are the only ones that i know of that are like this.. I think he may start doing it on all basses if asked..
