Just wanted to take a moment and say how much I've been loving soloing the neck pickup on my 44-02D lately. Especially with a pick, for a little Gov't Mule-ish type action.

Played an outdoor show last weekend and the recordings came out pretty well so I figured I'd share:)

This has been discussed like 4 month ago. Someone, GregC IIRC, had seen and photo-ed them. Reminded of... errr... a Jazzmaster maybe? There were two at that time. Lakland said they weren't planning to put 'em nto serial production though.
Good news if they have since changed their minds. Could be a nice 15-th Anniversary announcement

So I left Indy about 9 AM (after doing a little work) and started on my way - after a frustrating 30+ minutes looking for a Starbucks (darn GPS led me astray 2-3 times!!) I headed for Chicago.

Arrived at Lakland about noon and treated Dan, Leo and Carl to some Pottbelly's and spent about 2 hours there....

good news and bad news....

Bad news: Dan cannot do the limited run we have for the LOG basses (we suggested 20 but he still needs 25+) so this will have to be tabled until the economy gets better. Sorry!!!! we tried - however, i would like to thank you all for your support - we WILL do this!!!

Good News:

1) played Carl's 4-76 - wowsa! (see previous post)

2) saw Pino's bass - ubber cool!

3) Evans neck - hawt hawt hawt

4) Carl was working on the prortotype 19 fret short scale....it is supposed to fit ANY US BASS!!!! production date not set...however, if you want one....let Dan or Leo know so they know if there is interest (Evan???? - maybe not too late to change your fretted DJ???)

5) Leo has some GREAT stuff for sale (see LOG site)

6) I am working on something with Leo to ease my 5 banger fretless GAS....hopefully more later....

7) saw a few 6 stringed items that looked suspiciously like guitars....hmmm??????

8) They are all pumped for the 23rd!!!

That really sucks on the LOG bass, but I suppose that's how the cookie is going to crumble right now.... but I am REALLY pumped about the 23rd!!!!

Oooo...very true Doug! What up this that?!

Chew got some splanin' to do!

OK, my splanin' is like this...
You know that old pair of jeans that fit 'just right'? That's Ole Blue. When I need that comfort therapy, I grab Ole Blue and the world is a kinda, simpler place. Now that she's been around 12 years my boys also have said "you wouldn't really sell Blue, would you Dad?" I in fact did 'sell' her a couple of years back. Luckily the deal fell through and I was extremely relieved. When i boxed her up to ship, I had a moment....
If the Glaub (I havent named her yet) fills the bill, Ole Blue may not be safe much longer.

BTW , Matty - did she have a name already?
