Thanks! thinking about going with a tort guard (bought this used). Does Mike sell replacement pickguards? I sent an email to the service address a week ago but got no reply. Better to call?
Yep, a call will get them ever time. Heck, half the time Mike picks up the phone.
Every time I've called them for some help with something they were super quick in helping me out, awesome service!

He will absolutely sell you a new guard, and yes, always call. Cool lefty bass.

Nice Lefty, Stringray5. I know who used to own that one...
Nice bass and yes, Mike can make a lefty replacement. He has the template. I also am a lefty with a lefty Lull identical to yours. His replacement pick guards fit excellent.
Thanks Graves, yup I saw you mention in the thread on leftybassist that you'd played this one. Post a pic of yours if you got one, would love to see it! I wonder how many left handed ones Mike has done..
Really digging this bass so far. Great tone, comfortable weight, especially compared to my SR5, and just very easy and comfortable to play. Still getting used to the 35" scale - feels like just the distance between the nut and first fret is a bit more, but I have relatively large hands so it's not problematic at all. I'll be gigging it on Saturday and report back.
Does anyone know, are the serial numbers consecutive?

Welcome to the Club, Stingray5 and nice bass! You're member number 68.
Anyone else want a number?

Sting, I believe the serial #s are consecutive. Ron, after all this time I don't think I've ever asked for a #, or have I? Ken, thanks for the heads up on the P.
AWESOME! I just noticed my pj5-24 is up on mike's websight as the model example. One of the best basses ever.
There's one in the works.
And for the sake of Cory's mental state, I hope it gets done soon!!!!
Paulie, your PJ5-24 is truly an amazing instrument.
Is yours active? because the specs say they are passive, and so I'm wondering what is the stacked pot closest to the bridge? (I have the regular PJ5 and just have 3 pots, for-shore passive).

Mine's active with a bass/treble stack. I usually run it passive, however. I have the internal volume pot dialed all the way back so I don't get a huge volume spike when engaging a scooped sound. It's a Bart pre.

I am drinking everyday just to cope.
I heard it will be done soon!!! Probably have it in a week or so.

Man, I hope that's right!! After 6 weeks of telling you "any week now", I don't even believe myself right now.
