how do i get one!?? LOGers, anyone Doug, Greg..are these available hmm.....gotta get me one!

They were working with John Entwhistle but he died before anything came of it. There were two prototypes made. The one pictured ended up with some private collector and the other (which is very similar but has dots on the board) is owned by the bass player of Papa Roach. When Dan Lakin owned the company the story was always that it had no chance of being a production model. Now? Who know. I think as a Skyline model it would sell a ton. Especially with Chi-Sonics in it.
 
LMBO man.....ROLF

I have heard good things as well...like Johnny says though "you never know"....JP. and BO are "breaking the mold" some.....to me that is a good thing

It's no secret that I like Lakland a lot better now that Dan's out of the picture, and I agree that JP and Bo are taking the company into cool new territory.

However, if someone wanted a T Bird today, I'd suggest Lull in a Montreal Minute.
 
Hey Markus - yeah the pup cover - sorry for loose terminology. Thanks for the link.
Ant.
