STL Area GTG?

Dr. Cheese · #1 08-11-2009, 02:14 PM

If this is tacky, let me know and I will drop it. I was by my favorite local dealer today in Edwardsville, IL., and I found out that they are going to be Lakland dealers. This would make them the only Lakland dealers in Metro St. Louis. I don't know when the basses are coming, but I suggested that it may be a good excuse to put together another GTG. I know most of us are very familiar with Lakland already, but a store launching a new line is as good an excuse as any for a GTG!

Let me know what you think.

I guess this a no go.

That's cool. I'd get to see it (not play) before it left the store.

TheIrishOx · #9 08-23-2009, 08:53 AM

yeah i never really got a chance to really sit down and play a lakland and this also gives me a chance to break in my epifani cab

TheIrishOx · #10 08-24-2009, 01:17 PM

Man it would be killer if this went down, come on everybody join in on the G2G im beggin you

superjesus · #11 08-25-2009, 11:32 AM

I'd be down for a gtg. I figured stl was about due for another.

Dr. Cheese · #12 08-27-2009, 08:00 AM

I'll tell the folks at Mojo's and maybe we can work up some dates.

Tenma4 · #13 08-27-2009, 10:31 AM

I'd be all up for another GTG. I'm inspired by all the crazy STL cats I know will show if they're not afraid to cross the river. I forget who half of us are from one year to the next. It would be a great reminder.

I'd love to check out some Lakland stuff. If there's any STL luthiers reading this/attending, I'd love to see some of the stuff you've built too.

Pedulla? · #14 08-27-2009, 10:33 AM

Oh I'd be down for shure.

TheIrishOx · #15 08-27-2009, 04:39 PM

dude cant wait for this to go down. Man i hope the store getting laklands get one that has chi sonics in it, MAN! im GASing already, gear and body wise

aluminumbassguy · #16 08-27-2009, 04:57 PM

I have heard that there is another store thinking of bringing in the skyline series in St.Louis. I dont know if they have totally decided on it yet. Got this from the horses mouth.

lopxtc · #17 08-28-2009, 08:10 AM

You know Im up for it ... just gotta know when.

Dr. Cheese · #18 08-28-2009, 08:19 AM

I'll talk to Mojo's today or tomorrow. They got three Skylines in yesterday: a 55-02; 44-02; Bob Glaub. The 44-02 is unreal! It may only weigh 6 lbs! I have never, ever played a bass that light in my life! The 55-02 is great as expected, and the Bob Glaub is one hell of a P-bass.

I think some JO5s and and maybe a DJ4 or 5 is coming later.

Too damn bad I have to drop a load on my car.

sirdugh · #19 08-28-2009, 08:53 AM

I'm surprised that Chef hasn't chimed in yet though I guess there aren't too many basses he hasn't tried/owned

Perhaps he and I could ride up together?

Dr. Cheese · #20 08-31-2009, 06:24 AM

I talked to the folks at Mojo's, and they say that late September, early October looks good for them.
