    Hey TB, I just wanted to share my band's latest video, which is a funky synth-driven cover of Everything Now by our Canadian brothers & sisters Arcade Fire. It was a nice opportunity to pull out my Lakland 55-64, which I think sounds pretty dope here. Hope you enjoy!

    Very nice. I wasn't able to hear it the way I'd like to just yet (At work. No headphones), but from what I CAN hear, you guys sound great. I'll check it out again when I get back home.
    I'm admittedly not the biggest "Burst P" guy, but that is a nice-lookin bass, sir :cool:.

    And I know this is TalkBASS and all, but that dark grain Strat your guitar player has is nice, too.

    Get those headphones on! And yeah, not only is it a handsome bass - thanks for noticing - it's been reliably excellent in the studio. I'm not primarily a P player but I looked for a 5-string P that actually sounded like a P (surprisingly hard!) for a few years and the Lakland really impressed me.

    Good on you for noticing KC's guitar. It's a Fender Custom Shop rosewood body and neck. They made Strats and Teles based on George Harrison's Let It Be era axe. It sounds INCREDIBLE, and is soooo heavy!
