This little number...

Does anyone have this kind of pickguard on their 55-01? I just bought a MIK 55-01 here on TB, and I'd like to put a pickguard on it, but I can't find this style pickguard for Laklands or Skylines anywhere! If anyone has one, I'd pay postage (plus a tip) for a tracing.

On that note - loving this bass! Putting an Audere Classic 3-band in this week, maybe some Fat Stacks in the future - because I can't leave good enough alone..

As already stated by another TBer; Jeannies' Pickguards should have this. I ordered a red-tort for my maple 55-01 a few years ago. Sold that bass to get a 55-02D; then sold it later. Both nice basses. I shoulda kept the -02D. Still have a '07 Skyline JoBo 5 sunburst.
 
4 string! Coral is nice but after I saw a Sadowsky a few years ago in Candy Apple Orange Metallic, it was all over. Then I went to the LOG gathering and saw greatness. Here is the last picture I have of the P bass after I decided to have a neck built for it. Carl said it would be about 3 months, and not to be pushy Carl, but we're pretty close to that :-D

I am not going to say that I think this is th right decision... but if I found a bass that I loved except I wanted a different color, I would 100% have it refinned. In, fact I did it with my Green JO CS. Now I can barely put the bass down to play anything else. I recently aquired a Sherwood Green BG and I have a similar reaction to it with the stock color... its just a crazy world.

oh man! that looks so sekzy...if it were a 5er I'd save it from the refin...although the tangerine orange is sweet....

Someday I gotta get me a coral bass...and a tangerine.
 
Hey guys, if you're a LOG member, you may have already heard this, but I decided to put my track from Resonance online…. what the hell? I think by now I'm no longer in danger of affecting CD sales…. ;)




Awesome Ed!!!!

love that tune and the sound you got out of that Scheff!

...and it is the LOG who should be THANKING YOU for allowing us to use this fantastic song!

I think I need me one of those pedals.
 
Here is an almost complete "road construction" series knob...I should send a set to Gary for naming them.

very nice finish Clay!!!!

I am getting a custom set of "Clay-tastic" knobs for one of the bubinga Bros...I had the pleasure of eating tex-mex with the illusive Clay last night...he is a most gracious host and a great guy!
 
A definitive...maybe!

If the basses are BOTH made in Korea or Indonesia I would say yes....
From my experience, they fit the pocket, but the holes may not align perfectly. Not a huge problem to dowel and re-drill, but the pattern can be ever so slightly off so that it could cause mis-alignment or gaps at the heel.

I've successfully swapped 55-02 Korean with an Indo 55-AJ, but did have to dowel and re-drill
