Drew, could you try and describe the sound of this one vs, OCBs' 02.
OCB could reply too.
Here's the deal. I play a 25 yr old Peavey T40. I know most here might consider it "WalMarty", but at the time (1979) it BLEW everything else away. ( thinks the Jazz's I was playing at the time were kinda junky).
I like the fat StingRay sound my \Peavey gives me when I just "nose it" into humbucker mode.
Very "piano" like through my little Mesa Scout.
But I'm way GAS'in on a 5'er.
I **think** that OSB's -02 might give me more of that tonality, but no one in Buffalo has any Lakland's to try.
Called back home to Rochester NY,HouseofGuitars, very well stocked and the guy on the phone said the Korean Lak's suck.
Somehow I trust you guys more, anonymously!
I love the color , and the fact that it's less $$ than OCB's 02.
BUT, I've never spent this much on a bass, and its "sight unseen" so I'm hoping you and OCB can shed some light on this LONG DIATRIBE I"M TYPING!!!
Sounds like you and OCB are buds, so I know we can work this out. (I have to come up with some caysh here as well!)
Which Lakland for me??
BTW, I've been totally out of the loop for the last 20 years if'n y'all hadnt gathered by my seemingly adolescent ramblin'. I hestitate to put my toll free work # uphere, but I can PM each of ya tomorrow.
Both Black OR Silver work for me!
THNX for the help guys.
