Glad your lovin' it man!
 
When I first purchased my BG last Sept., I was contemplating refinishing the bass in Daphne Blue or Sonic Blue because I already have two other basses in Sunburst and was really wanting a retro solid color. I had actually set up an apt. with a local luthier to refinish the bass but had to wait 6 weeks to get in the cue. During that time I just fell in love with Lakland's sunburst and how well it compliments the tort they use. Well, here it is 6 months later and I have no intention of changing anything exempt strings when the time is right.

Classic is in style for every dude! Very nice!
 
Thanks. You get partial credit of course, your mockup let me know how hot she'd look.

Those Dunlop nickels that you recommended have better highs and really help make this bass sound the way I want it too :bassist:. No more muddy higher register chords.

Thanks man!

Glad you're feelin' the strings! Everyone needs to try them! So clear and articulate, and they feel better than any strings I've played.
 
wow!!! looks like I got ALOT to catch up on and no time to do it!!!

just a note: On the LOG now:

1) LOG CD update (wow is all I can say!!)
2) how to get a free set of Hanson pickups (yes FREE!)
3) How to get a free Jeannie's pick guard
4) "getting close to 15" - you all SHOULD know what that means
6) Sparkle Purple BG? hmmmm......someone gotta indea
 
I've been really diggin' the Sea Monster but the single coil ChiSonic in my house were buzzing like crazy. The wiring in my house is 60 years old, and tortured by my Decade. Just too much to live with.

It now has a Lakland P pickup in it and a new guard form Jeannies! The tort is different then the standard. More brown, and has more contrast. Totally fits this bass perfectly! And I am so surprised with this pickup. Very thick while have killer highs, and note definition like no other P pickup I have heard! I think I'm a P bass convert!

For me, one of the classiest looking basses on this site.
