Official Lakland Owner's Group (#18)

[basspraiser]

I definitely purchased my vehicle as a gear hauler, ESPECIALLY since I not only cover bass in my band, but I often have to bring a keyboard rig (as well as the merch).

"Yellow CAR!!! 1 point!".....sorry - those of you without a kid in early grades probably would not understand....

yellow = 1 point
orange (NOT burnt orange ) = 5 points

keeps the kids occupied on long drives....

So I haven't gotten a straight answer yet. I know there won't be an AC fiver, but on the website, natural is a standard DJ finish now, and I'd kinda like a Natural/RW DJ5. Anyone know if it could happen? HMMMM???

Randy:

seriously doubt it will be a "standard" since the necks are so different....bring he question and ask Dan on saturday.....also - we can "gang up" on him regarding the non-LOG BG5!

 

[basspraiser]

It's official

The unfortunate thing that affords us the ability to buy Laklands, pine for Ampegs, buy BMWs, and hope to maintain them. And sometimes it affords a mortgage, feeding the children and sending them to school, bills, nice things for the fiancee soon to be wife....

good priority list!!!

 

[basspraiser]

Skyline owners allowed here? What's up with plekked necks? How do we know if our Lakland was plekked?

...and where are the Lakland t-shirts on the Lakland site? I guess I'll need to design a couple for them!


My 44-02:

Welcome!!!!

I am sure you already heard this (since I have 10 pages to catch up on but)....

1) you are welcome! PM NUBS for a number and check out Link Removed for more fun (and T-shirts!)

2) when was your bass made? PLEKing has only been done for the last few months....

3) you can get it plekd if you want - check with Lakland for pricing

oh - and BTW - SWEET BASS!!!!

Peace:

Doug

PS - a complete Lakland post - wow!!! that is a rarity lately!!!

 

[basspraiser]

He doesn't look right playing that fresh, clean Lakland.

Somebody should relic it for him...

uhhhh....don't think so.....it will get relic'd the right way......with use...not "artificial abuse"....at least I hope it will!!!

 

[basspraiser]

Oh yeah, I saw these. Best of luck to the seller with those prices!

yeh....can you say "new price"????

 

[GregC]

Cool!!!! great picture as well!!!!

congrats on the exposure!

Wait, what?

 

[basspraiser]

Hey guys, I bought some gold hardware from a fellow TB'er. Why not, right?

SWEET!!! I thought about the hardware myself but could not think of where to use it......it looks SWEET with that combo...I LOVE it with the blocked neck....adds a dimension or two!!!

 

[basspraiser]

#2 without a doubt.....I'm just glad I didn sell the 4-76 to you....me and young Amber have fallen in Love Big Time

Ferg: good to hear!!! what is changing your mind???

[basspraiser]

oh man!!! AMBER is one of my favorite Lakie colors......love the pair together...very classy!!!!

should be getting my 55-94 fretless next weekend...cannot wait!

 

[MarkusBass]

class went well, but my voice is GONE! I am "speachless" for once.....I hope it comes back by the weekend!!!

Thinking..."Glad you got thought it Doug", while playing my Laklands.

 

[basspraiser]

I was actually thinking about having the fretted done in ebony but just have never gotten around to it. It plays too nice the way it is, and I don't want to lose the ebony sound from the fretless.

yeh _ Lakie ebony is something special.....

 

[MarkusBass]

I would agree.....cannot do a TT with 2 kids still at home...someday i will get a 2DSC (2 door sports car).....someday....someday......

Yeah...thinking the same thing....while playing my Laklands.

 

[basspraiser]

(Never hurts to ask)

Agreed Capn.....would be nice to have you around again!!!

 

[basspraiser]

Yes, I just purchased a 2002 model 4-94 Deluxe, and she is beautiful. Take a peek...

Now, I just have to wait for those 4 magic words... "on truck for delivery"

sweet Terry!!!! Wahoo! looks nice....

 

[basspraiser]

Just thought I would share some Lakland black and maple love and say hello to all my fellow lakland enthusiasts. My 07 BG P/J:

oh wow!!!!!!! that is stellar! the combo of the color and the blocks and the pick guard really keeps your attention!

congrats!!!

a "new take" on black and maple....

 

[basspraiser]

Just for the heck of it, how about a trip down memory lane and visit some past Lakies (all of which are missed).

thanks for the picture history Randy!!!

all look sweet!!!

 

[basspraiser]

Whoa, the blocks and pearloid guard really turn that classic look up a couple notches.Sweet!

sure does....almost messmerizing....does that give you any Ideas Greg???
