Pretty Stoaked on my new score! I found this online and just in time as someone else called for it while I was on the phone...so under the gun a bit. Got a reply from Paul at Guitar Works after I made the purchase. Apparently a 'VERY' early one.
1 week till arrival...

Saw that at BassNW last week, looks pretty interesting...especially at that price! Didn't they have a matching P bass with it or something?

oh wow. I missed that. very cool. love the logo "Mike Lull's". maybe he'll do a retro lawsuit headstock reissue some day. I wonder what's up with the other emblems on the headstock, looks like half of a south carolina flag.

The other was a fretless P/J bass. The guys @NWB super cool, told me they were just stickers the original owner put on...I was also wondering if it was some random Lull thing, in case I wanted to remove em'. Didn't wanna make that mistake if they were originals. I'll prolly just leave em on there anyway...

Just found this. According to Tom Beaujour's article, it seems you could basically call this an 'unofficial' Jeff Ament early edition Mike Lull NBA signature model. The tone on this baby is KILLER!!
Paul @ Lull's told me this is a VERY early Lull, and that the first few were Warmoth body and necks.
