Yes, but I'm not sure you can order a Skyline with one. Can't hurt to ask, though.

ETA: Evan beat me to it.

 

[Surprise Panda!]

A Chi-Sonic P wouldn't hurt to have, but Dark Star is Mojo-tastic and sounds so warm and full!

 

[JEDI BASS]

Trust me I am not a rich guy! I have no other vices like golf or Harleys race cars like my other buddies! LOL!....I buy all the gear I want because I don't really spend it on anything else...SAD but true!

Peace,

Yeah, but then you sell the most beautiful CAOJ DJ that the world will ever see!! Don't know why that angers me, but it does . If I ever meet you I'm gonna do a three stooges move on you, probly the fluttering hand in front of the face.... terribly annoying!!

If it had have been a 5 string I would have kept it...I don't keep them if I don't play them. I am not a collector anymore after I lost a lot of stuff in a fire. Maybe you should have bought it if you feel that strongly about it and then you would be happy about me selling...



Peace,

[JEDI BASS]

Maybe you should have bought it

You know I would've if it had been a 5er, after selling who knows what to get the funds.

I'm wrestling with the "I should sell what I don't play" thing myself here lately. I've almost liquidated all the painless ones.

I go through phases of buying everything I think I would like and then selling off the ones that I don't play. Lately I am on a 5 String Quest. I tried to find a 55-94 and finally realized that I prefer a 34" scale! After all these years I guess my little aches have caught up with me. It is a shame because I think the Lakland neck is THE neck for me! The neck on the CAOJ DJ4 was probably the perfect neck for me...period! Of course the gig I have needs a 5 so I am on a tear to get with what I need for it... Good luck in your quest!

Peace,

I'm seriously thinking about a Dark Star JO. Of course this will be way later on down the road, but I think it'd be killer! Like this one:

[JEDI BASS]

So, are you on a quest for one of those rare early 34" Lakland 5ers? What were they called?

 

[Musicman81]

Yeah, it's a beauty. I think money wise I'd be better off to find a nice used JO one of these days, buy the Darkstars and have them professionally installed.

Whoa, cool. Yeah, it's not on the price list, but I don't think anyone here ever asked Lakland if they could get one or not. I also noticed the seller is a music-store owner, so that might have helped.
