Hmmm... taken altogether (thanks Markus!) this kinda evades me... either the body looks too small for the whole run of the neck... or the fretboard should also be butterscotch, if that is at all possible
 
I went a little further down the list, just to capture everyone with double-digit posts from Part XVII.

No problemo! Should be about right on...The bridge needs to be closer to the neck, but thought good enough for now.
 
That's OK... I wasn't trying:-) Doug did tear it up though!

Well, no sense in posting in #17 anymore :) Here we go, picking up from here http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=7354158&postcount=911... it's time for some pics. Bought this in March 07 from Bass Specialties just outside Philly in Bensalem PA. Did all the buying over the phone and through email and had a great experience. Never touched a Lakland before this one so it was a big roll of the dice... and the only thing I wish I did different was get a 5 string. Instantly fell in love with the bass. It was night and day playing the Lakland compared to my 92 Ibanez SR800. I'm definitely a fan... but I still want a Sadowsky too :) And I also want my darn user name changed....

Ok, on to the pics (and are there any mods for the -02 like there are the -01?).... oh, and one day I will be purchasing black hardware and taking the bridge to a shop to strip the chrome plating and powder coat it black :bassist:

Love the black and maple!

There are ALWAYS mods that can be done. Nut upgrades, Pup swap, glueing spikes to the horn...

Big +1 on user name. I'd like to change mine. If I'd have known I'd be so involved with this silly board I'd have thought through the name thing more...
