LAKLAND OWNERS GROUP #43

Not open for further replies.
It was great having Randy and Sarah there. The band and joked that Randy would lecture me backstage for using the Gretsch White Falcon on a few songs. ha ha. We had some good shop talk, and even brought up doing a Lakland GTG in Chicago during Lollapalooza. That could be cool.


BTW guys, caught our buddy Branden and Neon Trees last night. Great show, and a GREAT guy- got to talk a bit afterward. I'll post pics later, some HAWT Glaub action as well as some Lakland infidelity (although forgivable, you'll see).
 
I just got back from the meeting Doug, John and I had with JP and Bo. They were great--really thoughtful, smart guys who truly get it. They were very willing to answer all our questions and I came away feeling really, really good about the direction of Lakland. John took notes; the three of us will put our heads together and come up with a wrapup which will be posted on the LOG either tonight or tomorrow. There's definitely some good news in there.:)

Branden, I played your oly white Glaub (44-64, that is) with binding--man, that was nice! Leo had me very tempted.



Speaking of temptation, someone else did give in to it. That's all I'll say for now.:D:ninja:

Looking forward to an update.
Thanks
 
I've shown these a year ago I think:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ESP-Edwards-E-T...34?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Guitar&hash=item4cef3559de
I would snatch her and give her a run if I were you ;)

no interest for a Lakie-wannabe? :hiding: You probably don't know what it is. Edwards is a Japanese inner market brand of ESP. In terms of quality and positioning it lays inbetween higher to highest LTD to mid-ESP. It is as close to ESP as you can get without spending K3+
The price is good.
Productionwise, it is like a Skyline: parts built in a ESP facility in China, assembled, wired and checked in Japanese ESP factories.
So, it is a ESP take on an older-version of Lakland 55- with basslines that, as they say, make it sound very close to MM SR
