LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #25

Not open for further replies.
Okay I have a question for all you Lakland gurus ;)

I was watching a review on lakland.com under multimedia -video gallery - LH3 44 Demo QT

Based off that review, the 44-02 (along with the 4-94, 55-94 and 55-02) comes very close to a Fender Jazz, Precision and MM Stingray.

Has anyone done any hands-on compairisons of the different basses as demo'd in this video? How close does one of the mentioned Laklands (mainly the 44-02) really come to the "holy trinity" :cool:

I'm planning on getting a 44-02 and I'm pretty pumped that it could offer that kind of versitility.

Not sure if a 44-02 can totally cure my recent GAS for a MM Stingray SLO special though :eek:
 
Not sure if this is the appropriate spot to post, but I'm in dire need of a new double bass guitar gig bag. I got one when I bought my 55-94s about 10 years ago. Does anyone know who made those bags (the red ones)? My hazy memory tells me they were made in Colorado, but I may be wrong.

Has anyone had any experience with the iGIG 515d? I saw it on the mikobass.com site. Any other suggestions for (2) bass bags? Non-animal materials would be good. Thanks!
 
Oh Ian!!...You out there to answer this?

I have tried both the iGig double and the Mono double. I now own the Mono...Lighter, better built and I think easier to use than the Mono. www.monocase.com
 
Hey Kaiser, I took the liberty of quoting your post in the new thread.:) That's cool! People who are able to visit the place seem to come away with a Lakie sooner or later, heh. I didn't get to see that LPB Decade in person, but I've seen one (probably the same one) on the website of a local music store--it looks incredible. I guess that trip sold you on DJs, Chis and LPB, too. Post that bass again, please, it's one of my favorites.:D

Here it is from this past weekend, ignore the ever growing beer belly

ha! my wife just called to say there's a parcel for me from the US at the post office! 440 gr. of weight, that's less than a Lakie but sooo cool nevertheless! :hyper:

Thanks Doug!

wow...that took a long time!!!!

hope you enjoy....DK

PS - you got the LAST "old style" T-shirt.....keep it safe....

I got it! I got it! Love'em both
and yeah, since I have 2+1 now, the very last one is a keeper
 
Just ran across these photos from my wife and my trip to Chicago last fall. She let me drag her down to the Lakland shop and she even had a good time talking with Brian while I had an even better time rocking this LPB US Decade and a couple of DJ's. The trip, the people and the basses sold me on Lakland for life. Thought you guys might be interested though they aren't great pictures
