Wow JJ! That's beautiful! Nice to see you won't be hurting so bad with your Coral P bass gone. Can't wait to get that body and go to Lakland and grab a neck from them. Now the big question. Rosewood or maple fretboard. Esthetically I prefer the look of Rosewood, but I kind of want a grindy, puchy p bass sound, so maybe maple is the way to go with that alder body. How aggressive are Neo punch P pickups? I've only played a Lakland P with fralins.

I'm not the biggest fan of the Neopunch. It's a great pickup but I really like the vintage one in my 55-64. I mean I really like it. It seems to get a real good grind to it too. Not knocking the Neopunch at all, it's just not for me.

Ben was one of the first guys that really caught my eye playing laklands. Watching "Incubus Alive at Red Rocks" I decided this brand was worth investigating. As it turns out, that was a correct assessment. These basses are Puurrfect!

Cool! I'm not a big Incubus fan, but Ben is really multi-talented. Before joining the band, he played guitar for the Roots, and that's a group where only killer musicians need apply.

Ben is a killer musician - multi instrumentalist and a damn good singer. One of my college buddies played drums with him in his old band Supergrub.

I got to meet him as a result outside a Roots concert at the electric factory in Philly. Really humble guy and genuinely nice.

Oh an he plays Laklands, so that automatically makes him cool :D

Met up with Basspraiser last night for a quick and dirty tour of Denver breweries/brew pubs and then took him by Premier Bass Guitar to show off a few Mile High Laklands... (Missed you Woody)

He tried to sneak this one out in his back pocket, but I had to say no... There's already a line a dozen deep for that one :-)
