Color is UNREAL in person!!! Like a bunch or sparkling garnets! I can't capture it w/ my meager skills.

Knowing you, you'll get a custom US Glaub w/ jazz taper neck.
HEY, Inca w/ matching headstock, pearl blocked ebony board w/ black PG would be striking!!
edit: don't forget the "Bull" deflector
With my luck, if I invented both.... I'd have been the first man to be ran over by a firetruck!!!

But he's already got an Inca Silver Lakie, how about another kicka$$ color like Burgundy Mist Metallic or Belair Green.
Dunno... there's just something about all the black, silver and chrome.
Fralin sounds great, like a P should. Setup perfect and was even in tune. Will testrun her next week with both bands.
Will do Markus.
So will your P have a Split Lakie P, a DS pup or a Chi??

See!! Stiring the pot gets everybody's creative juices flowing!!!
For over a year I've wanted brown metallic...that would look cool on a P bass...humm.....ebony board and patching headstock... or dare I say natural headstock and maple, black blocked neck....so may options!
I've owned two DJ5's. One was 8.5 lbs. The one I have now is 9.2. You can get them light but you have to search and be patient.I am eyeing up some Laklands......and they are shop floor ones that are 'new' but have been in the shops for a while.
DJ5 in LPB w/maple and DJ5 Black w/maple
One is 10lbs, the other 10 lbs 3/4 which seems a little heavy.
They are cheaper than normal...im not sure what to do....I dont want a 'duff' one.
Whats a Skyline 5 average weight?
