My wife says I have the power...haven't seen a truck pull up filled with gold bars yet though.

You got the powa?!

You forgot the waffle house!

Does Lakland have any t-shirt designs close to a phrase like "get plek'd" or "got plek?"

If not, they should

The whole "Got Whatever" is played out in my book.

http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=575661

can any of you DJ pick players help him out????? read the posts...some good advice but maybe someone has some other advice to provide....hate to see the person give up on a Lakie!!!

 

[basspraiser]

Maybe....who's askin'?

 

[basspraiser]

Quick question for the laklanders.

I have been looking into the possibility of buying and American made JO series 5
string. I haven't seen any with block inlays though. Is it possible to order a JO5 with a
maple neck and black block inlays and binding?

Thanks a lot!

Yup....you can on a US model....- mail [email protected] for info...

 

[basspraiser]

and you tell us about yours. how could you? [kid.]

My P/J is a Candy Apple Red BG made in 2002....had it converted to a PJ in 2008 - stacked vol/tone knobs....love the begievers out of it....what else do you want me to say....oh...here is a pic:

PS - the DJ is long gone.....

Sorry - Denis asked.....had to fulfill his request...

 

[basspraiser]

or maybe those are warming up techniques. Hard to play bass with 3 clawed fingers

I thought panda's had 6 fingers.....

 

[basspraiser]

I meant that, dealers would seldom have US Lakland on hand, is that correct?
As to the color choice - whatever it takes to make the B3 Boomer possible!

some dealers have several US Laklands in stock...number and details vary greatly though.....not too many "spec" basses going out the door the last few months.....

I would LOVE a B3 Denis...just like about a dozen of us but we cannot seem to get 30+ in this economy......

How about "plek this"

Now THAT I like!

Hey, just wondering what happened to the Jerry Scheff model? Did the guys at Lakland discontinue it due to a lack of interest and sales etc?

Luke.

Yeah, but you can still special order a US model.

Hi Guys.
I was just wondering if its possible to tell if my DJ% has been pleked and what pups are in it from the serial number.
Mine is 081228xxx if that means anything (other than being made in 2008)
Its a slow day so its just my mind wondering.

Definitely PLEK'D, definitely Lakland pickups. Usually there is a hang tag that indicates that it was PLEK'D, but anything THAT LATE in 08 is going to be....

I just saw the bass player from Spinal Tap playing a Lakland during some concert on the VH1CR channel

If I remember right, it was red with 2 soapbar pickups and 5er so I'm guessing it was a 55-01

I'm trying to learn my Laklands by sight

It's actually a 55-94--the rear pup a humbucker, the neck pup is single-coil (like the 55-02 and the 55-94), and it's a non-Skyline color.

ETA the right link!
