The Mike Lull Club Part 2

[benthughes]

'm pretty sure that NBD counts as the day you receive the bass but I didn't want to wait. I just ordered a Lull custom P/J 4 from Bass Northwest. It's an older Lull before he started using serial numbers according to the staff there.

Pickups are Duncan Basslines P with a Fralin J and Bartolini 18 Volt preamp. As you can tell the body is Maple/Ash. I'll give a report when it arrives . Bass Northwest was super friendly and helpful, awesome bunch of people over there.

I just saw that last night on Bass NorthWest's site - absolutely stunning, and the Dark Blue looks like the prototypical "sister" for my Transparent Red M4. Nice grab!

Does anybody know where I could purchase the black 60s-Jazz-Bass-type knobs which Mike uses on the M5V series ? Especially the stacked knobs ? I've sent an email to Mike's service but haven't got any response yet.

I played the TC4s and 5's at NAMM and they sound spectacular. Very modern and aggressive sounding. I love them!

You can get them from Mike Lull' shop in Bellevue, Wa. They hang on the wall....

It's better to call instead of emailing him, call him at 425-643-8074.

He is a really cool guy and very helpful. I was just at his shop yesterday talking to him.

I just thought I'd throw up a larger pic of the fretless. Finally figuring out the photobucket thing!

 

[Ron Plichta]

That looks like one I just sold, except mine had frets.

 

[Ron Plichta]

BTW guys, I have most fo the cash together for a T5. I'd prefer to get a used one, so let me know if anyone hears of one becoming available. I'm only interested in the burst finish.

 

[VroomVroom]

Paul, I SO love that fretless! The perfect look to go with the perfect sound.

That is one nice looking and sounding bass fer sure !

 

[Holdsg]

Sweet Paulie, and you have the chops that complement that beautiful bass.

 

[Ron Plichta]

Well gents, I ordered my T5 today. I might get lucky and have it by my birthday in June.

 

[pauliebass]

SWEET! You will have a bad ass rock machine! I love the Brazilian Rosewood boards on those.

Awesome. Thanks for selling me the M5V! I can't pit it down.

 

[Ron Plichta]

Glad you're enjoying the bass and I'm glad it went to a good home.

It sounds terrific! I just picked up my blue PT at Mike's shop today and it's exactly what I wanted. All the T4 tone but in a P bass package.

 

[Lorenzini]

Brad, very nice collection! Can you describe the shape and depth of the neck on your P4's? I have a PJ5, and love the neck, much prefer it to the Fender P5 I had, but I imagine the 4 string necks are a bit different.
