Yep! Sunburst JO, black pickguard, and pickup cover with flats. Kickin' it old school! I'm pretty sure he will be playing upright though.

huh????? what are you doing Terry?????
one in/one out....
He just installed doors like Terry has too!
I searched the forums and couldn't find anything on this. I just got a Lakland Skyline 55-02 w/ the Bartolini pups. (as some of you know)I'm super excited and in love with everything about this bass. There are many tone options so I wanted to get an idea of how you guys are using the pre-amp on this bass.
While I was at home noodling with the bass I found a great tone. All pups on with the highs slightly cut, mids flat and bass slightly boosted. This worked great at home but at rehearsal it didn't quite work. Got lost in the mix.
Style is alternative rock with dynamics and ...pretty stuff.
I play through a GK 800 RB set flat and two Eden 1x15's, one with a tweeter set half on.
Tried a bunch of stuff out and settled on just using the bridge p/u, no blend with both coils engaged, Highs cut, mids flat and bass slightly boosted. Sounded Stingray-like, which was cool cuz I used to play one in this band. I just feel like I could get a better sound and use more of the neck p/u.
Haven't messed with the mid controls or the pre-amp gain inside the bass. Thinking about upgrading to the new Lakland pre but don't think it's necessary, I got a great tone easily when I used an Ibanez SR-506 with Bart Mk-1's.(Don't bother to tell me to use the Ibby instead of the Lakland
) Any suggestions?

If you're getting lost in the mix, try working more with the mids and less with the lows.

BUT - I hear "through the grape vine" that Dan personnally delivered a Decade to him yesterday......we'll see what he plays in Chicago - hope Randy gives us a report....
ran into another friend this evening (we were watching our kid's football (Ferg - FOOTBALL, NOT Soccer) team lose their homecoming game!) and he and his wife are going to the concert tomorrow night as well...now I am really wishing I could go....
maybe I'll just buy the DVD when it comes out...better seats and cheaper...
