Hi all,

Does anyone have a Skyline Hollowbody30 and/or a Decade shortscale?
If so, I wonder if you could do me a massive favour and supply me with the following, fairly accurate, measurements:

Overall length (including strap button to tip of headstock):
Body length (longest horn to bottom of body):
Body width (top bout):
Body width (bottom bout):
Headstock at widest point (including tuners):

Many thanks
Si
 
Where did you find the bass? Reverb or TB? Really interesting paint job; very unique.

Here in the classifieds. I was amazed it sat out there for over two weeks. There's another DJ-4 in CAR with blacked out hardware that I was pondering but I'm not much for red basses for some reason but then I saw this one and couldn't help myself.

I think it's a good thing that I don't cruise the classifieds frequently!

And he doesn't like red basses....

I always wanted one of those Bass Club Chicago special run, and that is the only one I have seen with a maple board.
never got around to it. and have my jazz needs covered, but can't go wrong there.
 
Playing a Shoreline in the Ochanomizu area... This place is a must visit if you are in the Tokyo area.... Many many instrument shops!

Some very interesting locally made basses and guitars along with standard brands

Out the door price on the shoreline was just over $2900....

There were also several US Lakies and Japanese skylines in the shop

Doug laying it down. Looking sharp!
 
Ha! I just have a crappy phone pic and a couple from the listing as I've been so busy with work I've not been able to get any other pics.

Quick pic when I got it home last night.

And from the listing showing the custom paint job a little better.

It was originally a natural so it's not factory paint but definitely done professionally. It looks really nice in person.
Man! That is sooooo nice. Unique. Good score.
 
Anyone who receives the Lakland B Stock emails may have noticed a cheeky US Decade in Shoreline Gold nestled in there at a fantastic price. Fortunately it's not shortscale otherwise I would have been in trouble I think, but I enquired out of curiosity anyway obviously....

It's going to be a beauty and someone will be very lucky!
