Eventually. It has to go back to Lakland for the pickguard.
Roger does not have the template. They have to cut it by hand.
Too soon to send it back.

Why do you say you invented hot cross buns? is it some kind of "in joke"? And have I just ruined said joke?

Makus, you just CAN'T impress an Aussie with that. There is an actual guy in Australia who applied for a patent for the WHEEL. And he received it. It's a fact of life, as the guy and the Patent Agency were awarded with the Ignoble Prize.

I don't know if I should be offended or not
. How come I've never heard of this Aussie? He should be taught about in schools and his name should be proudly shouted from rooftops, and other such places

Yeah, "if". Or "how many" =)

I think he's okay with just royalties.
I dunno, you could google Ignoble Prize or something. I have a book at home but I am sure they have a site
The name of the lawyer who patented it. But his intentions were more noble than I had hoped...I don't think he gets royalties unfortunately.
Luke.
Haha, very good. Also Markus, if I make you my hero, does that put me first in line to get your basses if something "unfortunate" happens? *rubs hands together, combined with shifty eyes*
Luke.
now guys,
looks like both my basses are sold.
Quite unexpectedly. I was only selling shoreline ... is that a new kind of gas attack: selling a personal lakland for an unknown lakland?
So if someone has a fretted/fretless 55-94 or other US 5-string too dear to give out outside the LOG...
I MIGHT consider a 4 string PJ... not to get a 5 string Lull or Sadowsky ... ewww...

Awesome, something new & different!
Yeah...I know they cut them by hand. Had to send Roger my pickguard on the Surfer to get another one made. I actually like it without.
