Here he goes.....he is going to be the "Terry of pickguards"...what is that 6 total?????
It IS a sweet playing bass......sounded really hawt!!!! and that BEM!!! wow!!!
Sorry - had to give you my impression....
BTW - as always - I am humbled in the presence of a good bass player like Ferg!!!
He had some GREAT things to show me....and he was having a GREAT time with his loop box....those things are addicting!!!
SOLUTION:
Come up on May 23rd at 1 PM for the Lakland GTG.....let us all play it and give you our thoughts....THENM have Carl (the master) look at it and let you know what he thinks.....he should be able to tell you immediately IF you need a PLEK or just some tweeks (which he can do then and there)...if it needs to be PLEK'd you can leave it there....
Man - I impress myself with my problem solving skilss (LOL!!!)
Nice record but I BET Terry (Buffordbass) has us all beat!!!
I have had 10 and still own 7 (soon to be 6).....Some one is WAY too HaPpY about that!!!!
Talked to Leo - he will "handle it" when the pickups arrive....I hope to get it there next week or so...
this one is back safe and sound. if i sell it again i should be banned from this place.
Oh yeh!!! congrats!!!
BTW - still have that Fender 50th I sold you to finance one of my first Lakies???
You and me both!!! I am "Dependant" on that dogone thumb rest now!!!
The ONLT thing that would have made my CAR (4 string P/J) go Bye Bye would have been that US Shoreline Gold P/J at the shop in San Fran...but I must save my money for the 5 banger fretless!!!!
you have my offer already......and I WILL stand by it (somehow)....did I hear "Doghouse limited edition" somewhere....hmmmm????
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." --Albert Einstein
so.....what does that say about Terry???? I think every other bass is a 44-01 Natural with a RW board...
also - seeing these numbers, I have some SERIOUS catching up to do!!!!
i feel lonely right now...i have these two 4 string basses that are disfigured in some fashion and then i don't have my amp anymore.
so i can't play! hehe...i could play ampless, but that's just not the same for me with these oh-so-awesome basses.
I hear Leo has some nice amps for sale!!! I even think SOME of them were Lakland test beds so they would be used to Lakies!!!
Yeh and if that EVER goes on the market I will get a PM at least a day before it hits right????? RIGHT!!!!????
are you bringing the Fretless to the GTG?
Ferg:
did your wife talk you into coming???? She seemed more excited about it than he did!!! (I THINK it had something to do with something I sadi........."Michigan avenue and credit cards"......but I COULD be wrong!)
Evan,
I serioulsy think it is more the "fear" of fretless than a cash issue...he won't even touch my fretless.......
Common Greg=========use the POWER of the fretless!!!
I agree.....extra...extra...extra... hawt......no orders any other way!!!!
pass the curry baby!!!
Ok, here's the current family portrait.
With any luck I'll be updating this in 5-6 months with the new addition.
can't type with all of the drool on my keyboard!!!
I thought I saw a sunburst DJ with stacked knobs somewhere. Pretty sure it wasn't a DJ. Making a plate wouldn't be too difficult. I could draw it up and imprt it into Rhyno 3D and export a dxf, or similar file that could be cut. Drill some holes, and bevel the screw holes, then off to chroming. I really think I saw one...unless I was dreaming
yeh Markus......sounds "easy".......
