I´m waiting for my DJ.
I think that October is going to be the happy month

I´m wondering if my new Lakland is going to be one of
the last DJ´s or one of a new model...

Anyway I don´t care,just want my new Lakland...right now!!!
The waiting...

I actually hope the DJ doesn't get the collector's item treatment... :atoz:
But that's just me being selfish...
The recent turn of events has put a dent in my plans to turn my DJ into an active, 70's-style bass with some slap-friendly pickups. Now I'd never forgive myself if I laid even a finger on the thing...
 
Thought some of you may be interested in this.

About 4 months ago, I bought this lovely 44-02 from the TB Classifieds. I know a couple of you have owned this bass (Matty;)).
I looked far and wide for a solid do-anything bass to give my son for his 16th B-day(he's already got a MIM P). I wanted to keep the price below $600 and was leaning toward a G&L Tribute L2000 when this beautiful bass popped up on the classifieds for a great price(thanks T:bassist:). More than I wanted to pay, but worth every penny. It's an '04 with the Barts.
I had a couple of months to play with it before his Bday and really fell in love with it. It truly is a "Swiss Army Knife" in the bass world, which is exactly what I wanted. He's in his high school jazz band but likes doing the rock n roll thing with his friends. Perfect bass for this purpose.
It was difficult parting with it, but I gave it to him for his B-day and, needless to say..... he was ecstatic:hyper:
I wish my dad played bass:)
Here's a pic of the happy(even if he doesn't look it) teenage Lakland owner...
