I'm using Firefox both at home and at work, and haven't had any longin problems. However, I go straight to the site off of a bookmark, not off of any email links. I haven't subscribed to threads, they're pretty easy for me to keep up with.:D

Im looking for some variety from my flat stringed Geddy. I need something bright, with lots of crisp attack.

The 55 series seems like it has some awesome tonal options, with a JMM configuration.

Yep, that sounds like the ticket for you. Have you checked out the soundclips as well as the youtube clip for the LH3 system?

When I got my Fretless JO5 from Dennis, he had sent it in to Lakland to get leveled. When it got to me...it was AMAZING. I never should have sold it, although I needed a P more than a FL. That is why I am wanting to get another FL lakie!!!! By the way, I suck at fretless too

Ah, so you're the one who bought that bass! I talked to him on the phone about it just before Christmas of last year. I really wasn't wanting a JO, though. I remember him saying that he sent his in and the got it just right.

My favourite music band is "Rojo" and I have taken bass workshops with their bass player Emmanuel Espinoza and have followed them over the years, especially him when he was in other bands and playing for Marcos Witt. Well to make the story short One of my best friends is a close friend of Emmanuel and he did some sound mixing and studio engineering job for him (Emmanuel) for their last CD that just came out 1 month ago. Emmanuel had ordered this USA Lakland 55-94 with custom pickguard and translucent white finish. By the time it was to pay my friend Emmanuel received this bass and literaly played it for 20 minutes and sent it to my friend in form of payment. My friend has enough basses so he let me know (knowing hoew much I like the band). Well to make the story short I traded 2 basses and cash for this beauty. is brand freaking new. not a single scratch and comes with a white "Pimp" case. Another rare thing about this bass is that Laklands are usually 2 pieces of wood that make up the body and if you see in the pics of the back of the bass you will notice that the grain is constant so it is only one piece of wood!!!!

just sharing with you guys and gals. I love the tone of these basses is very good and since you can change the frequencies of the mids at the preamp it gives you a lot of tonal options I had to get it because of the tone, color, details and ... also because it was Emmanuel's.

Kudos to Rojo. if you guys wanna check some videos of them on Youtube for Rojo that's cool.

Since I snatched this 55-94 I was able to do a trade and got a Fretless 4-94 that sadly i am putting up for sale or trade now since I play 5ers. (here http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=573328 ) this was soo beatuiful to say not to it.

also.. is there a club number I can ask for?

She already gets anything she wants...the wife makes sure of that. She wants a lakland...I mean, I can;t let her down right? She needs a short scale glaub. I hooked up the baby eden at home and it sounded great though my 212. although I couldn't really push it. Sounded much "fuller" than my WTX260 did. I took it in to practice because the guys didn;t believe they made midget bass amps now. I will be testing it out Friday night and Sunday afternoon in the studio and at a gig. Did you check out those links I sent you?

Well I guess it's time to toss my name in the hat... I just picked this up from Happyface which in turn got it from Sparkdog here on TB. It's a 05' DJ Skyline with factory Lindy Fralin single coils, U.S.A Hipshot hardware with d-tuner, and comes in right at 8 1/2lbs. I will take some better pic's with better lighting as I have time, these pic's and the crappy lighting do not do this Pearl White/Tort. combo any justice!

I PMed the LOG moderator guy nubs and have yet to hear from him or get my number. :crying:

Enjoy!

OK...here we might have the same problem. If I click on a link in an email to view the latest post to a thread I sub'd to...most of the time it shows that I'm not logged in. What I have to do is hit refresh or go to the home page, and then back to the thread.

If this the same problem you are having?

i have that problem when i go there with my iphone. otherwise, on the pc, it doesn't matter what browser i use (fox or ie8, haven't tried chrome), it doesn't keep me logged in.
