Listed on linked in and I assume the book of face as well...
I’ve never seen a flame ‘board with diagonal stripes before- killer!
It is really not easy to see the difference.. same bass, different approach of the builder. Feel is where it comes to two worlds.
Here’s my Korean Duck Dunn W/B/W pickguard. Check out and compare the screw hole placement and overall shape, and see what you think. It’s shielded on the back, over the control cavity area.
love the action shot....or the "tuning shot" prior to the action shot....
A Facebook post about a Decade with A US neck got me thinking... how many Dan Era “end of month” specials are floating around out there?
I asked Brian about my 44-94 EOMS and he sheepishly said they cut that stuff out when The Pirrucello’s took over. His story was that Dan would whip out these hybrids to increase liquidity or to squeeze out revenue from resources (a body that wasn’t quite right- a neck with a weird grain that couldn’t make the cut) From a business perspective I totally get why Lakland Guitars Ltd. would distance themselves from these beautiful bastards ... you can’t warranty one offs, and it could degrade the brand as a whole... but there are still some gems out there, I just want to know how many!
who else has a “factory hybrid”/end of month special?

They don't do EOM specials but they do have B stock deals.

Rolled out the 55-14 for it’s christening weekend of gigging and it did exactly that which I was hoping; sat perfectly in the mix and was comfortable to play.
As an aside, I usually just plug in a DI but the sound engineer at this particular venue prefers to mic a 10” speaker cab. He realizes the hollow stage needs some separation to keep the boominess at bay so that’s why the cab is sitting on a couple railroad timbers.
