Custom Landing L132 * * * SEE PICTURES * * *

Hey guys!

My new custom is nearing completion, therefore i wanted to start this thread, so you can see how its come together.

Its a Custom Landing L1 32 scale, with custom emg hb pickups and an active bqs system, all hipshot black hardware and a custom blood paint job!

Firstly i just want to say, that Jimmy from Landing is absolutely Brilliant!!!! He is in constant contact, nothing is to much trouble, and he has gone so out of his way to accomodate my custom paint job, he could not be more helpful!

Therefore i can not sing his praise enough, i would recommend him and Landing to absolutely everyone!

I decided to have custom made, as im now quite serious about bass, and wanted an instrument that reflected this, and after reading the great reviews about landing i decided to do it, and have no regrets!

As i was saying Jimmy from Landing is in constant contact and no word of a lie we must have exchanged about 200 emails to date haha!

Anyway, please find some photos below of how it has come together!!

I wanted to have something a little different so..... IT is a custom blood paint job, based on well a murder scene i guess... its pretty graphic, and Jimmy has done an AWESOME JOB, from the photos i have sent him!

Its not quite finished, but i will update pics as they come!

Some of you will like it, some of you will hate it .

I love it, and cant wait to recieve it!!

Enjoy

Nice touch with the "SAVE ME" written on the side. Very metal.

I am not easily offended, but I find this kinda gruesome.

You never know who has been a victim (or has a family member who was the victim) of murder, kidnapping, rape etc, in your audience.
