The tort guard here looks fantastic. I think that the maple neck on the DJ5 is what is killing it for me.

Sweet ride, sir.

Ben Kenney of Incubus has a short scale MO Lakie. He and Markus are often confused for each other, though.

Go with a white pearl guard, Larry Graham all the way. You know it's the right thing to do!

I think that the white pearl is likely the best choice.

Plus, if I go that route, I can legally make this face on stage.

The set of DR Markus Miller "Fat beams" 45-65-80-100 just arrived.
Ordered these to slap on the new buckeye burl 44-94 when it arrives Friday

Been wanting to try these out....
They were cheap! Only $22.00 shipped on ebay... from a place I buy from. Nice price!
Has anyone used these before? They sound interesting from the description DR hands out.

@ Dan,
I liked the Fat Beams on EBMM basses, had them on a bongo and sterling.
Not sure what they're going to be like on a Lakland, but then again, I like Cobalts on my Lakland P-bass, so what do I know? really?

spelling lessons...nice.
No, well I dunno?
I mean whatever was on the bongo BFR was on there when it came to me...felt pretty good the way it was so I left them on it...I know they were pretty much as new and not played.

I never tried these MarCus Miller strings before...
