Does anyone know if i can get a Fralin P in a 5 string version? I really loved the tone my Duck Dunn had.

I believe so.....absolutely LOVE my Fralin-equipped BG! asked Carl about this the last time I was in there and he believes they do make at least one 5er P......he also thinks they are special......if he likes them also - they gotta be special.....Carl is trying to figure out what is "different" about Fralins....has not got it yet but he is one smart Jedi so.....maybe some day!
 
not sure....BUT maybe all it needs is a good set up...either way, Carl at Lakland should be able to set you up.....also, there is that "thing"..cannot remember the name right now...Evan had one for US JO....it is a weight that supposedly gets rid of dead spots and he swears it works.....

Evan...can you chime in here????

glad you are lovin' the 44-02!!!
That'd be a Fatfinger, Douglas.
 
Just thought I'd post a pic of my USBGPJ in Coral Pink. This was when it still had a maple board. I've since changed the neck to rosewood with a matching pink headstock. More pics to come!

yeah, every tuesday night....that is my long day. I lead a mens bible study that morning at 6am at work then after work go straight to practice and get home about midnight....right about 11:30 my eyes get really heavy....lol, but it is a great group and they guys have become very good friends.

glad to hear they are good friends!!! I usually stay out 'too late" the nights we have practice as well....we have a "mens bonding session" after practice.....:ninja:

Ian...that is fantastic!!! I like it MUCH better with the RW board and matching headstock...as with most (all?) Lakland colors, pictures come "close" but do not show the true beauty of the color......
 
Took my JO5 (Skyline with the Lakland J pickups) for a little spin tonight...just fooling around with recorded songs etc....for some reason, it REALLY growled like never before...wow!!! not sure what kind of strings are on it (have not changed them since getting it from BIGREDSIX a while back...maybe he knows.....

maybe they have just been worked in enough and they are in the "sweet spot"...it has always sounded good but..tonight wow!!!! makes me glad I did not trade/sell her the few times I thought about it....afraid to at this point...may never get "this" sound back again!!!
