Hahah, maybe the treble boost is causing it. Sounds kind of like a synth or something for recording video game music.
hmm.. something like this? (same song)

Yep, proper gain-staging is where it's at!

Hotter than all those uber-hot chicks we were allowed to witness in Knoxville????![]()
Big week.....5 days.....14 flights...woohoo for me![]()
I have checked them out side by side and they are identical from what I can tell. I think the custom aspect is the length. Laklands are a bit longer for standard through body stringing.
"big brother" Glaub?):Okay *somebody* on this thread once bought a tiny bass for his daughter or something. I've been scouring the threads all morning looking for it so's I can prove a point in an argument. Who bought it, and what was it?
So it's Spring Break here next week. Our kids are going to spend some time a Music Camp. My daughter (who plays flute in an award winning Middle School band as well as takes piano lessons at the music school where the camp is being held) and my son (who plays drums in a different, non-competitive band at the same school) were told they could pick whatever instrument they want to play at Music Camp. My son chose drums. Any guess what my daughter picked? Ukelele! Yeah!
Just kidding. She wants to play bass! Better start saving for that short-scale Decade...
(note: Ukelele depicted in rocking bassist emoticon is actual size)
Thanks cool! She really needs one of these!
I played one...such a blast!

And a Happy Non-Denominational Spring Transitional Observance to all!![]()
I'm not going to go into too much detail, as that would be unprofessional... But yeah, egos need to be checked at the door with all the other baggage. And that goes for EVERYONE.
On an unrelated note, I've decided I'm going to resign from my current band to try and put something else together.
I KNOW it has 2 Os....hmmmm...Woohoo! Got my LOG renewal package today. The CD looks great (even if my bands' name IS misspelled (two O's in bamboo), gonna listen to it in the studio tonight. Can't wait to hear everyone's contributions!!!
oooops...sorry Randy...not sure how that got through QC.....I KNOW it has 2 Os....hmmmm...

Thanks man! Sorry to hear about the lack of sufficient O's though:-( Still haven't seen a real one yet:-(
"Doudester"????![]()
I got my LOG package today too. Anyone want an XL t-shirt? Just like last year I asked for medium and got XL. Should have taken the cd I guess. If you want it PM me your address. 1st request gets it.
you mean this one (with its now gone"big brother" Glaub?):

It is a Samick Corsair....it actually sounds pretty good....
I bought it for Rebecca to play....she picks it up now and again but not often enough....she gets frustrated when she cannot just "play" like Daddy...I am trying to get her to learn basic plucking etc and that is "boring"
BTW: here is my favorite Rebecca/bass picture (totally impromptu):

The T-40 is now gone as well...
Hard to say, Luke. This would be my first brand-new one, but I know wait times can vary depending on the backlog at the time of the order and other factors. Based on what I know, I'd expect it to be a bare minimum of 6 months and probably more like 9-10.Nice, looking forward to eventually seeing it.
What is the normal turnaround time between ordering a U.S Lakie and the finished product?
oops.....yeh - I gotta send you one....send me an e-mail at work to remind me....

Dang, sorry about that! I'm going to alert the person (ir)responsible.
