That's a nice looking PJ there. I wonder why they used a different type/brand B string from the others?

Probably... And why not?

An empty board looks cool ... I'm sure there are side dots ..

My PACKER bass is the same way

So I am not part of any group.
How does one join the LOG?
I have 5 right now, all Skylines. Two DJ4's, 44-64, 44-02 and 2010 AJ-55 with a LOG block neck.
I have my first USA on its way. A 1999 4-94 I just bought here.

Hey guys, I just got some much worse than expected news from my tax accountant, and it turns out I owe a lot more than I had planned. So, as much as I hate to part with this one, I have to. Some of you here know a lot more about it than I do (and I think some of you have even owned this one prior to me), but my understanding is that this is one of the last to leave the factory under Dan Lakin. Essentially a one-off custom 55-94 with passive Chi-Sonics. Doug, please chime in with anymore info you may have. Plays and sounds fantastic, and if I didn't really need the money, it wouldn't be going anywhere. I wanted to let you guys have first shot at it before I post it in the classifieds tomorrow, so if interested, please PM me.

I was the original owner of Midas. Right before Dan sold Lakland, from what I understand, he was putting basses together from parts that were laying around.
This is one of three basses. They all originally had j pickups. He had them routed for Chi's.
There was this bass, a red one, and a black one.
What I paid for this bass was insane!!!!!

 

[Gecko 5]

Yes. Beautiful work, as always! I’ll have to take some pics sometime. I think I have 5 or 6 Gecko straps now.

That was one of my favorite straps to make. Glad it stayed with that bass
