New (to me) 2011 Skyline 44-60 limited edition with BnB neck and Chi-sonics in Inca Silver. Arrrr!!! Now, must decide which Lakie jazz to keep...this, or 2007 DJ4 in LPB?? Both are excellent. I think the Chis get the edge but it is close!!

That's a tough choice, but a nice problem to have! One with rounds, one with flats? Chis love flats.
 
You read my mind! Two sets of TI JF344s are inbound. I will A/B the two Skyline jazzers and decide.

I already had three Fender Jazz basses that are all keepers. The War Department is starting to catch on...and I love Precisions too! (Including my DD.)
 
Hello. I should have posted in here a long time ago. Big Lakie fan here. I've been very happy with my Korean era Skyline BG4 bought new in 2007 and a JO4 purchased in November from another TBer.

Question for the experts: Does Lakland ever sell parts? Tuners, pickguards and the like?

Funny you said that - I have been trying to find the right string for my 4401 with Chis and recently thought I would throw on TIJF344 - BAM! That is the sound I was looking for, great combination. I never liked those strings on any other instrument.
 
Hey guys, thought i might finally pipe up after all these years of lurking the forum! Some of these custom lakies are just incredible! Just curious, Is it an easy process to order these custom models, or do you do it through certain connections to the company?

Glad to see the LOG is still alive! (BTW, I humbly own a fretless 44-01, thinking a US 44-64 is my next axe, but would love to customize it slightly:ninja:)
