    i think yours is the nicest i've seen yet

    beautiful colour scheme/pickguard
     
  8. I've got a Shoreline Gold with Darkstars, no pickguard and matching headstock currently being restored by Lakland (previous owner got Chi's, didn't like them, put in DS pups with all the gaps, decided to get a 63 P-bass, and I bought it real cheap). I will post pictures when I get it back, projected to be at the end of the month.

    Pretty unique sounding bass; kinda like the Lakland Hollowbody, which has similar pickup placement.
    Current Lakland build quality is really excellent. Finish and playability were superb right outta the box.
    The bridge pickup barks nicely, and the neck pickup is really it's own deal: hefty and quite clear.

    I hope to be joining this club...tomorrow! :hyper: *fingers crossed*

    I forgot to mention, I saw that bass when I was in the shop about three weeks ago. It's going to be fantastic once they get it restored.
     
  13. Wow---great. Lucky stiff, living so close to the shop---I wish I could just pop over there any ole time!:) Let me know how it is if you go over there during the next 2-3 weeks.

    I'm sure it will be, but the wait is the hardest part.
    I haven't bought myself a new bass in about 2 years..... it is time:bassist:
