Nice score!! I was drooling over this one when I saw it on the IG page.
I have an affinity for white blonde over ash with a maple fretboard, I have a Fender Jazz like this, and will more than likely order a V4 or M4V in the future with those specs.

I'm more active here than on FB so dropping in to join the club. This JT4 is absolutely killer! I love everything about it!
Just putting this out there: if anyone happens to have a PT4 or JT4 that they'll consider parting with, please drop me a line!
I seem to recall that when I had a short-scale P430, I found a used Mono M-80 guitar bag, and it just fit. That was a few years back, and my neurons, well, they be old.
of course, the short scale will fit just fine in a M80 bass bag, with room to spare, and since they have that nice neck pocket tie-down thing, it's not going to flop around inside there.
When I received my custom MTD 30" scale, it arrived in a fresh TKL Stealth EG gigbag. Awesome bag…very impressed, so I subsequently ordered a few of the stealth electric bass version.
My MTD is a 2/2 headstock, but the bag has a lot of headstock room to spare—I just measured the actual interior length…42" From the nut, I measured my Lull P5 headstock and assuming your Lull 30" has a similar size headstock…it should fit. Here's that EG bag like mine…

I'd like to see what Spencer comes up with assuming it does happen and doesn't take months, but i will keep this in mind, thanks very much.
Was surprised to see a Mike Lull being put through its paces in San Pancho, Mexico this afternoon. Incredible group of musicians.
I joined the Mike Lull club today. I picked this beauty up this afternoon and brought it to my psy/space rock band rehearsal tonight; it sounds amazing, looks cool as hell, and is a joy to play.
I'll take and post better pics this weekend.

I have a bunch of Lull basses, but these are currently getting played the most.
Those T-Bass pickups are no joke.
I have a set in my heavily modified Fender.
It's a shame they no longer sell them separately.
If I was ever going to get a new bass….it would be a Lull. I remember him fixing my old workhorse Spector and it killed until the truss rod gave up the ghost.
I was lucky enough to get my forever-bass, a Lull J in 30" scale, the J430 Spencer calls it. I'm pretty sure it is the LPB seen in the middle pic on the J430 page on the Lull website. Couple of mods: the "B" bridge, no string-thru-body, Lull in-house single coils, and Vol/Blend/Tone wiring.
A great bass in its own right, but even greater because the short-scale dimensions that Spencer and Tom chose suit my aging creaky bod better than any other bass i have ever played.

You're not wrong Gary! In addition to basses, a friend got me hooked on Lull guitars as well, so there's some nice diversity. Just a few:
As promised, here are a few more pics of my new (to me) Mike Lull NRT4.
It is truly NOS, as it was built by Mike Lull in 2013; it is currently flawless. Matt (who I bought it from) thinks it has the original strings, which I also think play like new.
I'll do my best to keep it NOS, but I plan on playing the crap out of it in my band.
