So I shouldn't refinish it in neon pink w/ a matching headstock? Its funny, with the exception of Goldie (which nearly became Daphne) all my basses are now green or blue. Maybe I should think about some variety...
Pink would rule! Serious!

^ That is what I was thinking i would do if I were so blessed to own it. Though, I can't really decide which one I would switch to. Maybe just white pearl would do the trick.
It is a killer bass...I saw it around here before and drooled over it then. Great score for sure, congrats!
I have a rosewood board with the BEM dots on the Scheff and HB. It really does look awesome!
I like the Chi singles in the single case. I think ALL single coil Chi's should have been placed in a narrow single case.
Rather than some of them having the humbucker case.
I just replaced the Neo-punch pups in my Duck Dunn with Duncan Quarter Pounders and it really open up the tone. I used these pups years ago in my P-Basses and loved them. I recorded the Neopunch before the swap and the QP after and compared the tones. The Neopunch pups are truly a very vintage lower output and darker than the Duncan QP's. Rolling off the tone with the QP's I am still able to get the darker vintage tone of the Neopunch pups. The entire QP sounds fuller, thick lows, smooth mids and and crisp highs. This has me thinking of doing the same to my 44-60.
Sorta off topic here, but what's up with the LOG? I joined it, and there's not much really going on there. I wanted to start several topics, but I honestly didn't know where on the board to post. Anybody else experience this? Maybe it just needs an overhaul??
Coming from the guy that probably has my favorite bass collection on the boards...
Thanks man! Seriously one great JO CS you scored. From what I recall...it is the bass featured on the Lakland site for the audio clips for JO CS.
No more Markus leftovers for you, it's time for someone else to get some!
Wow, I'm with Markus on this one. I've always read that the Quarter Pounder P pickup is bright, this just confirms it for me--cause the neo Hanson P has some pretty aggressive upper mids to my ear, and according to many others.I just replaced the Neo-punch pups in my Duck Dunn with Duncan Quarter Pounders and it really open up the tone.
