LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #27

[MarkusBass]

Wow! The wheel huh? I think I'll apply for my amazing "Glass of water" Well..I don't see how they could have done that with the wheel because of first use issues.

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.

 

[MarkusBass]

My 3 ladies are truly hurt!

Oh...I didn't know they were listening Maple is growing on me again! Really!

 

[MarkusBass]

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

Luke.

Maybe Australia is going the way of the US...no modern history being taught

 

[MarkusBass]

Uh?


Oh, I see. Yes, John Keogh, 2001. Innovational Patent №2001100012
But anyway, your other hero ought to be Markus...if he has a patent ;-)

I actually did have a patent...but let it expire.

 

[MarkusBass]

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.

I don't like were this is going

 

[MarkusBass]

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...

So your Laklandless?

they are both at my house now but i'm sending them away soon.

 

[buffordbass]

Yep! We should talk, Terry. That bass is a beauty, but I can't justify keeping it with the smokin' Shoreline Gold DS'd Glaub I have now.

pm sent.........

Guys

What is the Lakland soft case like that you get with the Skylines? Any pics?

Is it padded properly?

Cheers

Skylines do not come with cases or bags...you have to buy seperately

New cab arrived last night...one thing I will say....stuff I recieve from Terry has the best smell to it. My jeep now smells like a spice rack, a manly spice rack of course.

 

[Gecko 5]

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.

Yeah, I hear ya. Problem is I usually end up with alot of that "swirling" effect on the G side by the bottom cutaway.
I don't know how that happens

 

[TrevorOfDoom]

No surprises here, except that John broke double digits--that's what a new Lakie'll do to ya!

Nice!!!!!

 

[EricF]

Flats for a Lakie 5'er (in my case a 55-01)....what's your preference?

I tend to go with Chromes for my 4's, and prefer the feel to be a bit stiffer rather than softer.

Just an added extra, the smell of great cuisine.... or something.
(Remember febreze)....
That small stack is killer.
