welcome!!! nice bass!



you mean a WIDE WHITE belt????

nice to have you back more Denis!!! we missed ya man (OK I missed ya!!!)

Thanks Doug! missed ya too! meeting you is a very very very ( x a lot!) big part of why come here every next time!

wide white with shiny metal pieces, or whichever one - Randy can sacrifice any of them and still be unbeatable!
 
Maybe someday the Skylines will get quartersawn necks... can't be that much more expensive, maybe $20 a neck right?
hmmm, an interesting idea...

on the other hand, Lakland being to a very large extent a highly devotional small 'family' business, wouldn't even more proximity to the US line ultimately kill the US line?


I hope I made myself clear enough, English is not easy sometimes... after apple cider... and red wine...hiccup...
 
wahoo!!! I agree...a GREAT bass by ANY name is still a Lakland!



LOL!



I STILL have to go to the web site to make sure I am quoting the right chapter and verse!!! Maybe that was a plan to get us to the site more! Markus???? was that your doing???

HMMMM????:smug:



Yup...go figure....we all seem to like Markus Orange DESPITE the name!

Ha!:spit::D

Train yourself some :) It's not as hard as it looks.

By the way: guitars and hammond organ by yours truly as well :D

Nice work!
 
Purchased my Lakland a little while ago but I figured I won't join until I have actually gigged with it.

I'm hooked :)
 
I finally understood what is the Doude's wave.

LOL!!! consider yourself baptised by Wave Marcel!

^ The mod for the side jack is already done. A previous owner had added a Bart NTBT pre to it and moved the jack to the side of the bass. It sounds good as it is, but I really wanted to try the Retro. I'm hoping it will match up well with the Nordys and let their inherent tone shine through a bit more. Best results for me would be to get it close to an old school passive sound,..but with more flexibility tonewise. Yeah, I know,...asking for a lot here,.best of both worlds! :D

The J-retro is really a good pair with the DJ...I loved mine...very transparent....

Here's a little something I made just now with my 55-60: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

Sweet and sweet! nice job man!

Sweet, man! I have basically no slapping skills.:o

Me neither! working on a little popping but that is about all I can do....I know guys who can slap really well and they try to show me how but I am all thumbs......well actually, that would HELP wouldn't it????

Train yourself some :) It's not as hard as it looks.

By the way: guitars and hammond organ by yours truly as well :D

even more impressed....
 
Can anyone tell me what the differences are between a DJ4 and a JO4 skyline?

I don't see a ton of difference, but I'm trying to find a 4 string J-bass to back up my US Lakland Glaub. I used to have a DJ4 in LPB, and I liked it, but if there's something different about the JO4, I'd be interested to know before I buy one!

Thanks.
