Maybe we can start a support group... | Rule number one... Never get high on your own supply!
LOL, I'm sorry... I had to say it!
Maybe one of these days I can mosey on down to Baton Rouge and check the shop out James... I've tried twice but both times they have fell through. 
One of these days... one of these days!

One of these days... one of these days! | In about 2 weeks we'll have received a few large shipments from several of our vendors... THAT'S the time to come check it out! We're getting a lot of new gear in right now...
Hope you can make it by sometime soon! |

Any chance you might be getting some more USA MTD/Laklands in soon?
Just an observation but it seems like you have a lot of maple fingerboard basses on your site, is that just a preference you have or do the rosewood and other fingerboard wood basses sell that fast?

TB will be of the first to find out when that happens! 
US Laklands and MTDs are hard to come by these days... We sell every one that we get in. But we always have something on order with them...
On the fingerboards, we try to keep a good selection of different wood combos overall. Sometimes, the top dictates what's going to look best or the other woods might dictate what will sound the best. So we don't have any "rules" that say...we need to order 50% Rosewood and 50% Maple...etc...
In another month or so, we might have more basses with Rosewood or other fingerboards... You just have to keep an eye on it.
Peace! |

In about 2-3 weeks, they'll have:
LG 3000 Koa top, Ash body, Bolivian Rosewood fingerboard
in about 4-5 weeks:
LG 3000 Burl Maple top, Ash body, Ziracote fingerboard (well, ALMOST Rosewood???  )
...and a few other interesting pieces along the way as well...
(We're about to start on the necks 4 and 5 string LG's with the Primavera tops, Swamp Ash bodies, Paduk fingerboards, and WENGE WEDGE NECKS, with Nordstrand pickups & Demeter preamps....those are also about 4-5 weeks out...the bodies are DONE...and I'm about to photo one and send it to James for his site!  )

I just though that was kinda odd unless the rosewood fingerboard basses sell faster than the maple thats all.

I reckon this is a very good move and will prove V popular. And wenge too
TB really is a great place for research...can't wait.

Maybe Gard will chime in here to confirm...but I believe that we'll be the first to get the Nordy's...
