Lakland Owners Group #22

OK, I took the new DJ5 to rehearsal and it was crazy.... I almost went home, the darn bass was all but playing itself!!! I looked down and was actually playing on the "B" string instead of using it as a thumb-rest.
What the heck?!?!??

Yep, you have crossed over my friend....

all your 4 bangers will soon be gathering dust. That's why I'm selling my Ric :(.
 
Do any of you know if you can retro fit a Chi-sonic humbucker and single into a 44-02? I realize this could go in the pickups area but you guys seem to know everything in this group ( a far as Lakland is concerned ).

I have two CHI-equipped Laklands that have CHI-buckers installed under MM covers, my personal choice/favorite.... I'm used to that MM cover under my thumb. Here is one of 'em..

I've talked to Carl, they don't (or at least didn't at that time) install a single/bucker setup ala J/MM. So, I opted for 2 buckers w/ a switch to go to single coils if I want, but I never do. The buckers just KILL.

Call Carl at Lakland and confirm if you want, he's a real pleasure to talk with, and will give you a lot of great ideas.

Thanks Obi wan, did Lakland make that body too? That is like nothing I've ever seen.
