Lakland Decade....any pics?

[cheezewiz]

What the heck happenned to the new thread on this bass????

My guess would be that a mod viewed it as spam since it was posted by the Lakland webmaster (BTW..I DON'T think it was spam..I'm just guessing that is why it was removed)

 

[Dude]

Pics and specs here...available at ANY Lakland dealer but this bass is very near and dear to my heart as I spent a lot of time and energy in it's development.

To Mods: This one is already sold so nobody is trying to sell anybody anything ok???

I'm.............in love.

Aaaaarrrrrrgggghhhhh!!!! I thought I was GAS free with my Bob Glaub and GK rig but this bass has exactly the pu config I've been thinking about as a counterpart to my faithful P-bass. I was seriously thinking about ordering an epiphone EB-0 but screw that!!! I guess I'll have to wait for a skyline version though . I'll try to throw some business your way Dude.


Edit: Quick question Dude. I see on the Lakland site the USA version can come either passive or active. Will there be a passive option for the Skyline model? I like to keep my setup as simple as possible.

I don't know yet sorry but I would assume so. Dark Star "purists" seem to like them passive.

Here's a pic you won't find on the Lakland website....

Ya know, even though I'm a Lakland fan, the first time I saw this bass, I said to myself, "That's got to be one of the ugliest basses I've ever seen in my life."

I've taken a good look at it many times after that first instance. Every time, it just looked better and better. I've gone from hating it to kind of liking it.

Now I would love to hear one. Although that may not be great for my bank account.

I want one of those!!!

Yes, that was my fault the thread was removed. Apparently I can respond in threads about Lakland, but not start them here.

 

[djcruse]

Hmmmph...It might have been nice to have at least gotten some sort of "honorable mention" on the Lakland website regarding my part in it's development. Oh well.....

I'm sure you can make arrangements with the Lakland webmaster to be credited appropriately. After all, it was he who wrote the text at the top of the Decade page - not Dan.

Can we take pics that you posted from that other lakland thread and post them here? I can't believe it got shut down, I don't see it as spamming, but if those are the rules..

I don't see why not.

Mmmm, fried stuff with cheese

+1!

Gosh. That bass was ugly. :scowl:

That's why they make more than one flavor of ice cream, Sport.

You should have Dude's people call your people and set up a conference call.

Ok, the nice pretty pictures are giving me gas pains, but I've called all the local dealers and no one can give me a price....CAN someone PM me what the going price is on these things????

Danka Shon.

I posted pricing in the other thread. Every Lakland dealer in the world works off the same price lists and the Decade models have been on the price list since January. If they have a 2005 Lakland price list they're on there right below the Hollowbody.

I believe what yer sayin...but I called the two bigger dealers in the MA area, and BOTH said they had no info. Buggers. Thanks for the pricing info, just saw it.

ARE they making a skyline version? Jus' curious, because 2800 for a passive bolt-on is just too spendy for me.

Yesterday, I was in one of the shops you probably called - Boston Guitar Works in Brockton. They did have several Skylines and I finally got to play a DJ4.
