Hey, Jon-Lars!
I'd suggest you joining the Gibson Club
All you need is just repost these jolly pics of your EB.

There's a word that Fred has disappeared and is apparently out of business. Is that true??? I was just about to start a DS project...

Any news?

 

[joe vegas]

dig that Starfire! dark star crashes...

 

[CThompson]

Any news?

I haven't seen anything that Fred is back, he seems to have disappeared entirely.

A quick google scan of Obituaries in his area don't list a Hammon at any point in the last year, so that's likely not it.

Dark Stars are now going on ebay for $350-400 each. I desperately want one, but no way I'm paying that.

Hopefully someone will pick up the slack.

Reviving an old thread because I have a dark starred P bass on the way!! It's been 10 years since I owned one..... damn, 10 years..... what the hell..........

 

[Hillsidebass]

This is, and will remain my favorite looking bass ever!

I ordered that one from Laklin many years ago....wish I still had it.

 

[Hillsidebass]

I built this one...sold it...bought it back....sold it again.

I built this one...sold it...bought it back....sold it again.

One of my all-time favorites.

An inspiration, really.

a great color! Hey on a separate note, didn't I sell my Lightwave bass to you many years ago?? That was my first fretless and I've never really looked back. Still have it?

 

[bholder]

I can't. Got all the parts, gotta make progress on the projects. Got some vacation coming after I get my code done, though.
