Yep - this be the first J05.....

Yeah, feel free to let me know when you're ready to part with that beauty ;)


Or when you're ready to part with that one :)

And do I spy DR Black Beauties?????





And on a completely unrelated note, something I never really knew the answer to.... What's the purpose of the pup cover? I mean the darn thing dates back to the 50s and 60s, yet I never knew what the actual purpose was for... and I call myself a bass player :rollno: Personally, I just don't like the way they look.
 
bama bass, love the black pickgaurds, very hot!!

i have a black pickgaurd waiting for my next Glaub.

Thanks Matty....the only thing I wish I could do is throw a bound and blocked neck on both of them. Unfortunately, that appears to be the downside (and the only one I have found so far) of playing skylines and not USA's....although the price difference does make up for it in my book....lol. Up next, hopefully, is a 55-02....a few have been close, but haven't snagged one yet. If I can sell my rig (the one pictured) I will get one immediately.

What rig is that and how much would you sell it for? Would you part it or sell it all together? Specs?

How'd you like the black beauties? I wanted to get a set ever since I saw Geezer playing them on the Heaven & Hell at Radio City a few years ago. They will definitely be on my black and maple 55-02 with black hardware (when I finally get it). Think I have a thing for black :ninja:


[EDIT] I bolded the Lakland references so the post stays on track :D :p
