Man O man, if Bass Central was up the road from my house I would be in a lot of trouble...and most likely single LOL
Won't help, I live on the other side of the country and I still bought five basses from them in the past year and a half. That included my 44-02 and BBB (Yeah Dan Balls came from BC.) I trust the guys over there enough to buy without trying.
Oh yeah? The Stealth came from them?
I almost bought my Mesa Cabs through them.
But decided to stay with what was here in stock locally instead.
I have almost bought from them, then did not.
I DO want that insane buckeye burl 44-94 they have shown BADLY!!!
But not for the amount it is listed for, not even close.

You know they do off a little discount for TB members. Just have to let them know ahead of time when you talk to them, before they make their best offer.
Once the Modulus gets here, the next bass I'm thinking about is a Lakland PJ with a Jazz neck, dare say it would be custom?![]()

Ahhhh there is the "C" Word
Yeah I know about the "discount" for TB'ers.
But it did nothing for me on Mesa gear.
Mesa is one of THOSE Brands that just does not get discounted anywhere, ever.
Could try asking about that buckeye burl one I am drooling over.
But know it will still be running 2 much cha ching.
Not worth selling 2 of my Laklands to get that one.
But then again?![]()

Can anyone compare the 44-02 to the 44-AJ? Is it like he 44-02 with the coil tapped? I'm so curious about the AJ's but no one near me has one.
You could always make your own body, but then again I suspect you might be as good with power tools as you are with electronics.
I mean it just seams like you're lusting after the top on that body and I would question rolling two Laklands just for the sake of a different kind of wood.
OUCH Low blow low blow...
hahaha!!
So it only hurts when you laugh? Might want to have that looked at.

tried to capture the luminous side dots in my 55-69 during my gig last night
