And I would love to buy it after you sold it.:hiding: But I can't do that, either, so it's all for the best that Dan keeps it.:D

THAT may very well end up being the case on the Burl?
I will leave it up for grabs in the FS thread here another few days I guess.
If it is meant to be after that, that I keep it? Then so be it :)

The necks on the 44-07, Scheff and the 44-94 have truly spoiled me completely....
The necks on other basses I always loved, now just do not feel right to me anymore.......
 
Dealing with water seepage in the basement like everyone else in Chicagoland.
My practice amp is buried behind other crap we've moved out of harm's way so I won't be able to hear it amplified until Sunday at practice! :spit:

Took a break from flood cleanup to snap this crappy shot. The Dude is in good company:

How can "She" see that as redundant?!

I see NO redundancy.

different colors
different pickups
different necks
different sounds

:eyebrow:

ahhhh...yuck.....except when coated in bread crumbs and fried to a tender crisp!

Bought this Skyline Hollowbody recently. Previous owner had the fingerboard with frets replaced with this fretless ebonol fingerboard, dots on the side. Strung with labella tapewounds which make this bass sound really uprightish.

:)

oh wow!!!! that is a beauty!

looks great! I bet it sounds awesome!

I bet that baby thumps very nicely.

I bet it does!

Well I listed 4 basses for sale...
The buckeye burl was listed first and still has not sold.

Listed two lower priced ( other brand ) basses last night and they sold instantly...
The 3rd ( other brand ) is about to sell it looks like.........
leaving me with that buckeye Burl which listed first.

Either people out there cannot cough the asking price in this rotten Obamaconomy?
Or it is gods way of telling me to KEEP THE DAMN BURL BASS YOU FOOL??????

hahahaha!! :)

So I think I might just yank the for sale thread on it and keep it......will know better by tomorrow I guess....

On the fence? better PM me on it today before it stays in my Lakland loving hands :)

Those "other basses" sure sold quickly!!!!! I was surprised at how fast they went......that Spector was fantastic!

I think the Burly Burl is just supposed to stay....

It's a JO/44-60? Thought it might be a DJ body.

yup! a 44-60!

Markus - slacking? well here anyways! I know I know...need more money to fund your bass and car habit...and pay for college (eventually)....you are soooo "responsible"...happens when you get kids.... :D

know how you feel....I used to try "other" basses with some frequency...just to have fun....Lakland RUINED my fun!

I used to love cruising the various music stores (GC, Sam Ash, a few smaller mom/pop shops in the area)...just to play some basses and have fun....now that is boring and futile....I never go out and play basses anymore...unless they have lakies....

LAKLAND RUINED MY FUN ...:spit:

but I could NOT be happier! :D

Yea it was so odd?
All of a sudden BAM!! GONE!! all 3 ...
And yes do not rub the entire case of salt in my wounds man...That one off show US Spector is/was a showpiece!
But the neck was a totally diff profile than my Laklands.
And the Laklands just seem to fit my hand the best.
So?

Yep, same here.
I never go play anything in stores.
There is just nothing that compares to what I already have here.
I whittled the collection down from 16 not long ago, to the 9 I have/Had till this am.
And NOW it is down to only 6. YIKES!! Feeling nekkid all of a sudden :eyebrow:

But out of the 6 I am keeping...4 are US Laklands.
So I am pretty ok with it all.
And if someone does buy that 44-94...I still Love what will remain.
The 44-07, Scheff and HB are my favorite anyway :) :hyper:
 
Hey guys, I was curious if anyone had a black Joe Osborne USA PG that they don't need? I'd love to buy it if you do.

will keep an eye out....try posting on the LOG site as well....or you can order one from Lakland!

I'm in the market for a 4-94 classic,rosewood/ alder. Bart's or hansons. It has to be light. Looking......

will keep an eye open....post a WTB on the LOG site....

Got a 44-64 custom ( Duck Dunn ) in mint mint mint condition from a TB member here last week. This is an awesome Bass !!! I never thought I would love a P Bass, but now it is simply a great addition to my arsenal !!!

congrats!!! nice bass!

A P is so classic and fits so well in the mix....I am really getting attached to my Lakie Ps.....they are becoming my "go to" bass unless I have a particular sound or ambiance I am after....in many cases the P nails what I need/want.

Played my LOG bass (with Marcus Millers) today in church and it sounded soooo great!

Hi,

Mine is a 2012 !!! I can get the 'grindy' tone I was looking for !!!! I am almost tempted to order a US model !

yup! any idea on the pickup? I bet it is the Neopunch by your description.

order a US 44-64 custom? the cool part is that you could get essentially ANY color you wanted!

Not sure if they are the Neopunch pickups, but they growl so well !!! I am sooooooo impressed with the bass, I cannot let her down !!!
