LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #28

When I got my 5501 I sent a few questions to Kirk @ Lakland regarding the preamp - mentioned I did not have the wrenches as the Bass was used. He took my address and sent me a set of wrenches < how cool is that?
Wrenches arrived yesterday as promised.
Wrenches arrived yesterday as promised.
To clear this up, the PROFILES are the same on all Lakland 5 string basses...HOWEVER a US neck WILL not fit on a Skyline body....
Today I put the black pg on the JO. Just recieved a new tort from Jeannies as well, but i'm going to sport the black for a while.
Here's my little corner of funHere's Joe N Bob. FYI-The Mesa is hooked up to the Berg and the GK runs through the Aggie.
And here is my setup next to the computer where I hang while surfin' TB.
wow!!! what a stck! do you have to stand on the stools to make adjustments on the amps????? (he he!!)
Tall wall of sound...THAT's for sure......
are you good friends with your neighbors? you better be or you might get them mad each time you turn that thing on!
You think there may be a correlation between the stack and the neighbors not talking to me
?I only have a "partial" basement, where I keep my amps, so it's purely a space-saving strategy. I come from the Ikea way of thinking
Although the Mesa can run both cabs
But I thought I'd ask my Lakland brothas. I need someone with experience getting music on iTunes. I have a client, that I'm doing some design work for, that needs some help in a possible consultant function. PM me!
Some pearl blocks on the fretboard to match the PG would be ultra-pimptastic.
That is the most insane looking flake paint job I've ever seen.

Nah....that would be TOOOO much!
Just kidding...it is sooooo "over the top" now.....but so niiiiice!
Blocks (MOP) WOULD look killer
I've got an older NV215 that I love, if I had a bed cover for my pickup, it'd go to every gig......blasted rain!!
And, about these things we all know and love.... a little thang we call Lakland basses
Sorry to cause sooooo much pain JJ...
BTW - I DID approach Dan about a LOG/Doude signature model (in Skyline)....OK - I DID not call it a Doude sig but I DID ask to see if he would be willing to do a BG5 with B&B and a std P pickup (since the current Skyline line just lost a B&B bass).....
His response was "Sorry - no yet...."
we'll have to keep on him....it WILL happen....someday....someday....
Guys, if you happen to visit the factory some time soon please make a teaser shot of a Translucent Burgundy 55-07CSHH body that's hanging around there. That one is my friend's. It may be accompanied (but I think yet not coupled) to a fretted unmarked ebony fbd. neck
Finally!
and the very first one in Russia
SOUNDS Great Denis....that will be one HAWT mama!
BTW - Denis, Terry, Orlando, and Bill - keep an eye out for a package with a LOG logo on it.... yee haw (consolation prizes)!!!
thanks my Northern friend....
what do you mean "like Fenders"? they are asymetic (3+2)....and it DOES make one weak to their knees! (EDIT: OOOPS! misread your post.....like Randy said...these look MUCH cooler and sound phenominal!)
I am more hooked on this than I thought I would EVER be with a 3 TB...
the one on the far left is a 55-94 fretless
(mwah city baby!!!)
is that like 2200 lbs???? metric ton - right??? 10% more gut bomb and heartburn than the English ton!
I was actually REALLY happy that they weren't. For some reason, the Fender pups just don't look right to me....
And that's his 55-94 Fretless on the left
thanks Mr. Secretary...will put the check in the mail for answering for me.....golly gee....seems like all of us are almost married to each other the way we complete each other's sentences and answer for each other.....
before you know it, we will be wipping curd and gravy stains off of each others cheeks....
Yeah, it was somewhat inspired by Mr. Clayton. I'm man enough to admit it.
hate to dis one Lakie over another...but yours looks much nicer IMHO....I liek the smaller metal flake of the AC dune buggy but I like the color of yours better..."his" was too brown (IMHO)...
short drive for Nirvana.....congrats!!! go get it and then give us a FULL report tomorrow (have fun with her tonight first!)
Brian is only there part time....send Leo one as well to cover all of your basses (oh I kill myself! yadda yadda yadda!!! - have the veal, I hear it's GREAT!)
