Like I should talk!!!

BTW - Ferg and his wife are fantastic poeple!!! I had a great time! AND - more importantly - I got out of San Fran with mt credit and my marriage intact (i.e. no Lakie purchases - although I was tempted several times!!!)
 
The proto modded with CHIs???? hell to the T-Bird Yeh!!! (BTW - not a big T-bird fan but it IS different!!!)

Maybe I can get my friend to confirm/ deny it....

here is my friend's response:

"Last I had heard about this it’s a Lakland custom that Tobin had built for the Metamorphosis CD Release and their current tour…. As far as I know it’s there is only his single one….as it was a special Birthday gift to him from Jacoby & Jerry."

Nice friends...wish you guys would buy ME a bass!! (OMG I am starting to sound like a certain Panda!!!! argh!!!)
 
I am officially in..the UPS man brought this a couple of days ago.

I have not really had a chance to play much with a Lakland with the LH3 electronics. The Barts never impressed me much. This is WORLDS better. I am lovin it!


WOWSA!!!! Fantastic!!!

I agree - overall I like the LH3 better, BUT ( ....a BIG BUT....) I am finding I like "older" Barts....for example, Ferg's 4-76 was really sweet sounding!!! If it would have had 5 strings I would have thought about converting it to a fretless....
 
hey doug, this is about the nicest 5 string fretless you will find right here

http://cgi.ebay.com/Lakland-55-94-5...0|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:0|293:1|294:50


Matty - you are on the lookout for me!!! I saw that one go down with no bids a few days ago....I e-mailed the seller since I was going to be in Cali to see if he would take my 44-02 and some cash...no response.....(although I thought my cash + offer was reasonable).....

I would be all over that if I sold my fretless.....I WILL have a 5 string fretless by May 23rd - one way or another....

thanks man!!!!:D
