hahaha oh man...lookit you go. Slick!
The Alembic is not going anywhere.
I need another brand to try out like I need a hole in the head.
Look wise yes!
Sound wise?
Not so sure....he has them tweaked...
Ask Mr matt.....he us one of our resident metal players
Argh! The suspense!
Hints?
Um... You don't have one. That should narrow it down.
Have respect man! At least hang it up!
No respectable lakland body part should be "just on the floor ".
Yeah man, geez.....
You cut off my ex's neck and left it laying on the floor?
LOL
Ah, one thing you should be aware of then: the single-coil mode of the hum bucking Chis sounds different from the single-coil Chis. I would say the former has less bottom to it and less growl. But obviously with a preamp, you can compensate. I had a passive Skyline Decade w/hum bucking Chis and didn't dig the single-coil mode.Yeah, I will have to do that. Until then, I will keep playing my 44-06.5
Good to know - I really do like the sound of the standard single coils that is for sure. Thanks for that bit of information.
So what outboard preamps are LOGgers using for their passive Laklands?
My 4-94 is somewhat out of rotation; I'm using the passives (DPLEII & hollowbody) for both bands' gigs and rehearsals. I really miss having multiband EQ onboard for significant tone-shaping at my fingertips, and do need a wide variety of tones for covers from many styles and eras (motown, blues, classic & modern rock.) I'm considering installing onboard preamps (John East U- and/or P-retros), but wary of cost and modification's impact to originality.
Perhaps an outboard preamp squeezed onto my pedalboard might give some happy medium compared to maneuvering my way back to my amp.
Please discuss.

hahah!!!!! Guilty!
For a while, I used a Sadowsky outboard pre-amp. Sold it a few months ago when I stopped using it (now have the real thing onboard).
Refin time!! It's off to Marty Bell.
The P will get a matching headstock of whatever color i settle on in a few days. Maybe..sonic blue? Daphne blue? Or something else? The HB might end up being white.
And, for the record, they both have darkstars. So that could change your vote if you're brainstorming with me
