Doesn't Doude's BG5 have Nordys? If so, I'd call Lakland and ask them what they put in there.
Sorry. Fixed it
his bass has the EXACT pickups mine has.....not sure why the hummm issue is there....
that is a good one!!!! dunno.....Terry maybe???? or![]()
I took delivery of a new one about 3 hours ago. Does that count?

2 Questions:
-Who can hook me up with a number? (Nubs never responded)
-Is there a big difference in feel between the Joe Osborn neck and the 44-02 neck?
Thanks!
wow, Markus and doug need to get lives, or dayjobs, or something.![]()

They are sick!!! But he's one P iece short....
wonder what THAT one will look like?
NO WAY!!!! I HAVE THE SAME FIREPLACE POKER!!! OMG...THIS IS SO AMAZING, oh wait, there are basses in front of that AWESOME FIREPLACE POKER.
on a serious note, I got home and the ACDJ was sitting in the living room all boxed up. I opened it up and it was beautiful! The neck on the DJ is something I really like. This bass can't be an ounce over 8 lbs. Lightweight, killer jazz tone. I plugged it in to my Mesa and it was wonderful!!!! It may be time for my 55-02 to move out and snag a DJ5.
Hey guys,
With the Hollowbody and Decade, are the Chi Sonics that come standard single coils, but in a wider housing? And are humbucking Chis a special order for those models, or am I totally wrong.
I need a 5502to go with my 5501 that I am still loving I might add (way down here in the entry level lakland land)
here ya go...

lessseee... as of now, there are a few options... A passive US 55-CS fretless... a fretless 55-02 and a 55-01 (to be converted into a PJ5)... a fretless US Mike Lull M5 and a 55-01 (a PJ5-to-be)... a 55-01 with a US neck and two Big Singles (PJ5-to-be) and a skyline fretless... Daym, that's too many!
I do trust you guys, that's why I'm bringing this up. The thing is: what kind of sound will I get out of a passive 55-CS fretless? What kind of music will it fit best? That's what I'd like to know
I take that as a compliment - my punk rock roots are showing! I was probably thinking Paul Simonon at the time, but close enough.
And Greg - Evan and I have an ongoing 3-way with JO #26 (Tracy? Stacy? Spacey? ) so she goes back to him when he's ready.
Then? I'll be Gassing for a hollowbody with CHi's and Maple Neck Decade, but we'll see what happens. Its hard to let any of them go.![]()
