It's true. If this bass was a woman she'd definitely show some player wear by the time I was finished.

Have'nt had a chance to really open up the cab.
I've also heard food things about the Wanderabout.
I've only very recently found an appreciation for the tube overdrive. Not for me personally. In the right setting,it works.

Very cool indeed!!! It would be very hard to beat the power to weight ratio of these newer lighter class amps...

Cucumber (as in 'cool as a -' ) is actually a good name.

and,

you're welcome! (or, na zdorovye, if you wish )
 
Hey again guys, just a quick question for all you Lakland geniuses out there:
Was GASsing the entire maternity ward of the LOG website, and spotted something:
Link Removed

It's a natural DJ4, but I noticed that it doesn't have the Darryl Jones signature on the headstock like mine does. What happened? Does the natural finish not get the signature like my LPB or the Black, or did they stop putting the signature on after a certain date, or what?

Not really important, just curious if anyone knows.

Cheers, SoundSupport
 
This is kind of embarrassing, but here goes......I've got a 55-94 for sale in the classifieds that I picked up used. A few people asked how old the bass is and I told them I'd check the Lakland website and get back to them. Well, to my surprise, I can't find a serial number anywhere on the bass! My DJ4, has the serial number stamped on the headstock, but I can't find anything on the 55-94? Is this normal? Please don't tell me it's stamped on the heel of the neck, because I'd rather not go there, but where is the damn thing?!?!? Thanks.

It should be stamped on the head stock. Mabe it has been sanded off for some reason?

The Skylines models have it printed in the same place. Where-as the US models have it stamped in as if it were punched in.

Also, can you provide a photo of the head stock in that area and another of the back side of the head where the tuners are including some of the neck? This will help us determine if the neck is from a US or Skyline model as the wood grain will be in different directions between the two series - by design.

How thick is the head's flat portion that the tuners pass through from front to back?

I believe (not verified) the US models also have a s/n at the heel/pocket as well. where-as the Skylines do not.

If the s/n number has been sanded off, I'd wonder for what purpose and by who - like why is the history being covered up?
