He's got the Neo Hanson in his sunburst US PJ and the vintage Hanson P pickup in his LOG bass. Told me this afternoon he's totally digging the vintage right now.

oh, he's got all of the best in his herd... that's cool, I hope every one gets her playing, they deserve it oh so much.
my (former John's) LOG bass also has a Hanson Vintage. I was thinking if I should change it for a Neo P but then decided to leave it where it is. I think I'll be having enough clarity available from the bridge J and from the LH pre pedal

it's just a bass - if the board moves, I'll just have it worked on. :pThis is a truly wonderful instrument. Family portrait to come . . .

Spent a few hours with the new bass yesterday. Overall, I love it. One question about the LH3: The high boost/cut seems very subtle, much more so than what I hear on my Ibanez SR600 (Barts). Am I right on that? I like it, it just took a little attention to her what it was doing. Haven't cracked the case yet to tweak the mid-boost freq. That's next weekend...

when you say "subtle" - what do you mean? do you mean little variance between full off and full on?

tweak the mids...who knows where this one is set....it WILL effect the highs as well...have fun!

that was my experience with the LH-3 electronics. it was too subtle for me.
my 55-69 with the ESP custom electronics on the other hand has a humongous difference when you boost/cut and i really dig that.

Thanks for the note. For now, it works, as I really like what the pre does for the mid and low end. It will be awhile before I take the soldering iron out on this one...but I'm not ruling it out. :cool:

I mean you almost can't hear a difference. There is something going on, but it seems to be at higher order harmonics. The is totally nits, as I can't get enough of how good this bass feels under both hands. My right just feels like there is more range of tone, and the left feels totally comfortable even with the increased travel.

I thought it was nice that the UPS guy left this for me today.

I'm leaving work at 1:30 today and heading to the shop for a little while.:D If anything noteworthy pops up, I'll let you guys know on the LOG.

Thanks to Macribas, I now have an Audere in my DJ4 also. It sounds great to me, and give me that single volume knob I prefer, along with more even blending options. Totally happy at the moment! I have a black pickguard on order to replace the white one on my 55-60 Custom 3TB. I think I'll be done with the bass trading business after this. I should have never gotten rid of my last two DJ's, and have regretted that more than any other trades I've ever made.

Uuuughh...Another bass for us to be jealous of! Best of luck with her, she's beautiful:)


On a side note, does anyone know how common US fretless Glaubs are on the used market? I have a Fretless Ric that I love, but I'm dying for that Juan Alderete fretless P sound...might as well do it with a Lakie!

Oh man, I'm trying to get some pics of my LOG p5 up.
Used it at a couple of gigs last weekend with the stock round wounds on. Was pretty good. But I think, on RW boards, I'm a flats type of guy. So I stuck some T.I. flats on it & used it last nite-superb!
Log > STL-600 > Berg AE410 .
Next gig I'll be trying it thru the Walkabout !!!!
