LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #29

[mattygbass]

Well, thanks to the fine folks at Willie's (a.k.a. Nick ) and Leo... I'm the proud owner of a US Glaub.

Sherwood Green.
Mint PG.
Jazz taper neck.

Sweet Jesus, this thing is amazing.

oh man, that is even sweeter than i imagined.

enjoy!!! and DIBS!!!

 

[MarkusBass]

I just wanna quote this thing for myself. I never get tired of this beast. It's my favourite in the collection, it even surpasses Orange Crush IMO

Wow...thanks man!

 

[basspraiser]

I can't wait to see that thing with a fretless neck...and then the original again, and then the bass and fretless neck for sale in the classifieds! WOOHOO!! But seriously, congrats!

do you think he'll put a SKYLINE maple neck on it????

 

[MarkusBass]

Yeah, I think i'm with you, Luke. At first glance, Orange Crush Crushedhmm 'em all. But Silver Surfer just kind of slowly brain washes you after a while. Those pics really do never get old.

Thanks man! The two JO definitely have different personalities...that's for sure!

 

[basspraiser]

BUT... I'm already putting together funds for a US JO. Probably won't put the order in for another 6 months or so; but still... awesome.

and so it continues.....the Lakland curse.......the Lakland's pile up and the cash disapears! (really hunny....not sure WHERE the money went....food? Mortgage? who needs it.....all I need is a nice cardbaord box and my Lakies....)

 

[basspraiser]

Ah, case closed.

Now that your online Doude, I wanna ride this wave to the 1000 mark. Think you're up for the challenge?

working on it my Aussie friend.....

 

[MarkusBass]

Good to see I'm not alone. I am more of a traditionalist when it comes to basses.

Speaking of basses, I don't think I've ever taken the chance to compliment you on your Black 'n' Tort Glaub, very tasty

I'm with you Luke...I'm more of a traditional guy too, but sometimes you gotta let loose. Love the Black 'n' Tort Glaub too!

 

[basspraiser]

He he he ! Yeah...I was taking a bass break! My boss loves them! Glad you Doug it Doug!

That's DOUDE to you!!!!

 

[MarkusBass]

That's DOUDE to you!!!!

Glad you Doude it Doude!

 

[basspraiser]

Thank you kind sir. What can I say, other than I love, love, love, love, love, love that bass I really do. Since i've gotten my BG n JO basses, I don't think i've even picked up my Ric or my Stingray. I never thought i'd say that either, but they are sitting alone in the far corner of my basement in a 5 space stand Doubt i'll ever get rid of them, but man, these Laklands are just perfect!

LOVE the way you guys are "trying" to hold a conversation and 10 of my posts get in the way!!!

Mwah ha ha!!!!

 

[E-Mac]

Is that what you are THINKING of providing for the LOG CD????

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa no. I'll get some guys together this weekend and crank something out.

 

[rayzak]

Took a little better pic of the JO today. I'm really such a crappy photographer Think i'll use it as my avatar for a while

 

[Luke.Walton]

Wow...thanks man!

No Markus, thank you .

Seriously though, more glamor shots. If your boss allows it that is, I hear he's a hard taskmaster

Mwah ha ha!!!!

We've learned to dive under the wave.

 

[Luke.Walton]

I'm with you Luke...I'm more of a traditional guy too, but sometimes you gotta let loose. Love the Black 'n' Tort Glaub too!

There's nothing wrong with letting loose either, but I think Randy still has one up on all of us when it comes to that

 

[basspraiser]

Check this guy out......he is a friend of Dan's and has quite a lauded past as well......I think you will be impressed with some of the bands he has played with.

the song you hear on the web site comes of the album called "Other Planets".....and YES it is a Lakland.....very cool! I have heard the rest of the album...VERY COOL!

also - John Pirruccello (former Lakland employee and current Hanson (pickups and guitars) employee) plays steel guitar on the album!

as an aside, Erik has agreed to pick out a cut for the forthcoming LOG CD.....

if any of you still want to donate a track to the LOG CD let me know (we are finalizing the cuts soon)....e-mail them to me at: [email protected] (they have to be originals to bypass copy write issues).....
