Does that mean he is acting in a sales capacity for a company bearing his name? Or is he trying his hand at personally manufacturing basses? Or is he opening a bass shop featuring a distillation of brands he likes/is compensated to carry?

My understanding is he's going to be a dealer. Of which brands, I'm not sure. For those who may not know, Dan was buying/selling/trading basses before he started Lakland with Hugh McFarland.

Yeah that'sm how I first met Dan back in the early 90's and he used to send out a list by mail !!!!!

he hooked me up with some sweet basses.

I sure miss those good old dayz and we could sure use an ole horse trader back again in the bass world again !!!

This is the part of bass world I like

WECOME BACK DAN !!!
