LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #43

[denchiq]

I think you are right!!!!

damn you Denis!!!

oh Doude, that only happened because I was out for quite a while. Sorry!!! Won't happen again!

 

[denchiq]

Now, you see? we agree on everything (aside from those cream pickup covers).

Let's start a band.

You can't. Markus can forgive you lots of things, but the pickup will stand between you and the band

i like ebony. it looks ALMOST as cool as BEM but [obviously] in a different way
my only concern is that round strings (I dont'know what they are, the bass came with them. The silk thread is metal gray with a greenish tint) leave marks on Nessie and that started shortly after she arrived. I might use halfrounds but don't want to sacrifice highs

Those are Lakland steels. I'd go Chromes, or if you want rounds, Dunlops...very soft to the touch. Sun beams are great too.

He he he!

But, but we both even have the whole graphic designer thing going on...

EDIT: That's a lie: I *was* a designer for a decade, but burnt out and now I do words rather than visuals.

So does this renaming thing mean that the Darryl Jones will come back, but as a 44-7.. something.. ??

You could start by designing better posts!

Hey, uh... anyone know what the bass is in this vid? The bridge (and in some spots, headstock) make it look Lakkie-ish, but thhe controls kinda leave me all confuzzled.

 

[MarkusBass]

J with an LH3?

That's a custom build for Jason Scheff.

The Scheff's (Jason and his father Jerry) have had a long relationship Lakland...

I saw Chicago probably 13 or 14 years ago (way before I knew about Lakland's existence). It was one of those outdoor summer shows that I never would've went to if I hadn't been invited by a group of friends. I was blown away by the bassist's playing AND singing ability!! He's phenomenal!

 

[Tommygunn]

Tommygunn:

no worries unless you want to join the esteemed LOGgers soon!

I cannot see anything changing....

I think mine would have to be a pre-hanson. More over pride. Like pre-gibson steinberger in a way.

I would think about getting the LOG bass for my first lakland (skylines don't bother me) but I just can't justify a pricey 5er. And if I do get one... it'd be from bassemporium

 

[E-Mac]

Yes. And 55...

? Really?!

Yeah, I'm a sucker for that band.

 

[blondmix3]

Yep!
