Thinking about trading my JO5 Nat/RW/Tort/J-Retro for a DJ5.

Jesse - do it....everyone needs to experience a DJ5!!!!

PS - has it REALLY been 15 months since you ordered your Callowhill?? (sorry to go off topic....side conversation!)

 

[blondmix3]

I think it was him joking that he was on his way to Knoxville to take pics....

 

[mattygbass]

Matty - sorry man!

I saw it was for sale but thought it was raising coin for the US Glaub....

when can you get back into business?

don't you have any business interruption insurance?

reopening in the morning i think??? still waiting for the cleanup crew to get out of there its after 10 here and they are still there working.

ill have that US glaub sometime before the end of the year, i hope.

i was trying to get ahold of leo about his LPB glaub, but no reply

Jeez, it's been over 6 hours since somebody posted...

Crappy iPhone pics, but it's quick and easy .

woohoo, so darn sexy!

P.S. that's a nice description you guys made together. I think I would love that sound. Wanna make clips? You don't need a tripod for that

P.P.S. and of course, you could go naked, use a tripod and make more pics of the BASS.

 

[denchiq]

Well guys, I’ve taken the plunge!

Just ordered a new Lakland Skyline Joe Osborn 5, in 3 Tone Sunburst with a rosewood board. It comes with the Aged White plate, and I’ve also ordered a spare Tort plate to make the rosewood look even nicer.

After many emails, and some excellent customer service, Dan @ Lakland has reserved me their lowest weight JO5 in that spec.

Also, to top it off, I have a new Aguilar Tone Hammer coming through the post. The pre-amp, brilliant dirt and fantastic DI will give me everything I need, and will add that little ‘ummmph’ to my passive basses if they need it.

GAS for basses? Not anymore, apart from possibly selling my MIJ P Bass and getting another USA P 08/09 in Olympic white/tort guard/rosewood board.

I am still after the Shuttle 9.0…definitely. Then Im done!

3tb rw tort - you da man!
as to the P - a BG maybe?

 

[denchiq]

First Lakland? You say your done, you it's only just begun

Oh, that for sure! Didn't realize it was his first.

BG - YOU BET then!

 

[denchiq]

Yeh - artisanship costs $$$$$....did you tell him you were a LOG member???????

I wasn't at that time, it happened a few month later

 

[JEDI BASS]

OK, GTG cancelled at Jedi's place...

Totem pole of shut-up

[bamabass]

Apology accepted....GTG back on! I am loading up the wrangler. I'll bring the new MESA.

[JEDI BASS]

everybody is getting new Lakies and i had to sell my last aquisition. the B/M JO5 i got new from leo a couple months ago. due to a fire at my barbershop i had to close a couple days and i need the money i would have made.

oh well, i wasnt playing it much anyways since its a fiver. i was planning on selling it to buy a US Glaub , but thats out FOR NOW.

i would have been really bummed if i had to sell one of my U.S. laklands.

Sorry to hear that bro

someone's selling a JOCS:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Lakland-Skyline...itar?hash=item23031e2666&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

the seller says the bass's got a wider neck and claims the bass was ordered with a BG neck. But wait a minute - aren't those the same? Could he mean DD - but those have B&B.

JO body with a BG neck make it an inverted Glaub, ha ha

It's a bring-your-own-tripod party

That's John's (Gecko5) old bass. There's an extended thread on the LOG about it. It has a BG neck on it.

 

[JEDI BASS]

that shinedown bass tone is definately the signature stingray with a pick tone,i know it well, before being a Lakland fanatic, i used stingrays pretty much exclusively.

Thanks! Now, to figure out how to get that outta Kobol.

I checked Traci's mid switch, it's set at 850, Kobol's is at the default 500...

I'm gonna have fun A/Bing all the different possible settings on her.

"THIS one" is seriously tempting me to go back to four.

as I asked before, aren't the JO and BG necks the same?

That used to be mine.
When I bought it the guy said he bought it from someone that worked at Lakland. He had a Glaub neck put on it.
I had the Chis installed. Carl told me that was the first bass "retro-fitted" with Chis.
The guy I bought it from also told me the bass was refretted with US frets. Carl could neither confirm or deny that.
I only sold the bass for financial reasons.
