HOLY CRAP!! Is that the Decade 5er prototype that I heard about somewhere? Does it have Chis under those MM covers? Either way, it's gonna be KILLER!!!

Not sure about the Decade, though the pickup placement is more like a Decade than a 55 which is what really interested me in it. They are the Lakland pups. I asked about dropping Chi's in there, but they said it wouldn't work as the routing for the MM ears would still be visible. I'm fine either way, as I have the JO5 CS, but nothing with Lakland Electronics in it.

Even though it's a couple of years old, this is apparently the only one made like this. Leo says it's Skyline parts, so it's cool to have a non-Skyline color. It also has a passive tone knob that supposedly works even when active. Needless to say I'm uber-excited about it!

I bought that bass used for $900 canadian... I guess nobody around here knows what theyre worth. :cool: I noticed ive never seen another one like it so i emailed lakland, and they said theyve made about 100 with flame tops. It sounds out of this world and plays itself like no other bass.
