No doubt. And yet I have seen other LOGers drop big bucks on mods and refins only to flip the bass months later. Makes no sense to me, but it ain't my $$.

It's PRETTY good considering:

-I didn't know anyone was planning on making a video, we made no accomodations
-We weren't playing to a click and managed to play on time! Ha!

And I'd say it's BETTER than the time we actually tried to make a music video. This one is worth the footage at the 2min mark, more than the rest of the video.

http://youtu.be/3bUDtpd1L-U

Video 1 features my USA HB+Barts, which I'm absolutely in love with. I have rounds on it, and use a Dan Armstrong "Yellow Humper" with it...absolutely killer. Video 2 features a skyline glaub, which saw a lovely tour earlier this year and is now in the hands of someone else, out in Indiana, I believe.
That first track and the HB sound great! Nice playing.

I think some folks are under the impression that the HB is only good for quiet folk songs or something. They are very much mistaken!

Thanks Greg. Yeah, I really had to think about going forth with the refin and all the hardware costs, but am quite pleased with the results. I didn't have the Scheff long before I decided to go for it, but it was one of those things where you pick up a bass and start playing and you just know, know what I mean?

my first two basses were black w a dark rosewood board. Just not my style anymore (more into bursts/translucents and maple boards these days).

That being said that Scheff and your 44-94 are frakin sweet.

Indeed! Didn't think I would really dig the more prominent mid output, but it has a nice timbre to it and of course I love the feel and comfort of the 4-94 body style.

Funny, I wonder if I'll ever grow out of black, nah that's what the rents thought 30 years ago, still hasn't happened

Thanks man, pretty happy thus far with my little Lakland brood, and there is a third in production as we speak

Can I join the group? I just acquired a 55-02. First owner bought it new, had it two weeks, then sold it to me. I have wanted a 55-02 for years, and now I have arrived. Really loving it.
