i was just about to post that, it looks to be in good shape also. a cherryburst lined fretless 4-94.
id be on it but i have a black and maple skyline jo5 coming from leo
yes I did... and I MEAN it this time!!
BTW, I DO still have a fretless Glaub neck for sale if anyone is interested.... I'm just sayin'

I was skimming through the GC used ad...Just saw a used 4-94 deluxe fretless at the GC in Falls Church, VA for $1299. Seems like a pretty good deal if you are in the market for a fretless.
I had to make a trip to Indiana today and so I went by Lakland on theway...only had a short time so - did not play much but here is my (short) update:
dropped off the fretless to be coated and Blondie to be looked over....Dan was amazed that the only damage she took was the knocked in button! He had a few meetings so he left soon after I got there...
they still have BG502 there which Leo says Dan may want to keep....BUT: there are 2 US decade 5 bangers up for grabs (1 red and 1 white)....
there is also a 3 tone US DJ which may be up for grabs....
call Leo if you want info on the above....
saw Markus' Silver Surfer fretless....OMG!!!! that is sweet (did not have time to play it - darn!)
there is a REALLY sweet (and VERY early) hand built (by Carl) 4-94 with Barts....and get this - it has a dark wooden stripe down the middle of the neck!!! a collector's item for sure! It MAY end up for sale
the color is very light -either natural or maybe a very light blonde....if I was primarily a 4 banger guy I would have pursued it further...
saw Jauqo's latest (the brown deluxe with the 3 single coil CHis - MARKUS - PLEASE POST A PIC OR 2!!!).....it was there for a set up.....that is one sweet bass!!!!
saw 4 blue trans quilted bodies getting ready for final assembly - that quilted blue has got to be one of my favorite Lakland colors!!! one even had lipsticks in it!!!!
Leo said to keep an eye open on the LOG site for an updated "belm" report.....they guys spent a full day and went through every Skyline they had and identified the "Blems"...if you want an -02 or a Decade this may be the time to think a about it (I'm just sayin.....)
as I was alomst ready to leave in comes Carl and Bill Dickins.....I said hi to both and shook Mr. Dicken's hand and then they "dissapeared" for some government work (who knows??? NOT ME!!!)
that is about all....now the wait for my "repaired" basses begins!!!!

dan - sounds like fun!!!! yeh- church tunes often call for odd keys and my praise leader has a tendency to do a lot of key changes...so a 5er is "required reading " (sorry - couldn't resist!!).
good luck with the masters.....I admire you doing so much at once...must be a fun juggle at times!!!
peace!
Doug
Leo asked me to ask you if you are going to buy anything.....he says you have asked about several....if you want one he wants to "hold" it for you...

Yeh - I SAW that today......looks sweet! there is another one "just like it" in the blem rack...hmmmmmmm
