LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #42

that is the perfect bass couch..

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.

the gratutitous 'Ash' shot ...

I was a little iffy about the pickguard early on but it's grown on me.

Next week it get's an Audere Classic 4 band. Vol stacked on blend, Treb, Hi Mid, Lo Mid, Bass. Friends Pete & Cindy Biltoft of Vintage Vibe Guitar are back from vacation and it's time to do something about those pickups ... maybe something in a split coil based on a P-90 kinda thing ... we'll see.
 
Mal, super nice 55-01 sir

BTW, that is my 4th decade, and number 53 if anyone is counting.
... and yes the "Spice Rack" on the LOG is a running picture book of my trials...
