The Mike Lull Club Part 4

[Barks4]

Here’s the bass…

I always love playing with others, but adding a Lull elevates the experience! Lull P4 Heirloom in Inverness Green today for the win! ️️️️

Hello Folks...Just a heads up.
Im with Spector artist at this point in time.
Hope all is well with everyone....My Lulls are going up on reverb next week.

Picked up a stunning new bass at the Lull shop today. My IMA4 batch 6 really blew me away when I got it, but I kept wondering what a 2 pickup version would sound like.

Turns out it sounds really great!

The specs are:
Solid swamp ash body
Non-roasted maple neck and birdseye maple board, vintage tint
Extra-light relic Heirloom nitro finish in Aztec Gold
"Heirloom" pickup spacing
Nickel hardware, no aging

So it's a pretty simple order in terms of wood, just like batch 6. There's something very special about solid ash with a maple neck and board.

Congrats! Wow…that’s realllllly nice! Super cool with the aged pickup covers and no rings!! I like the t-bird rings on some Lull’s, but other’s (like your’s) look best without. Of course the pickguard lends itself to no pickup rings.

Thanks! It's based on two fave IMA4s. The woods from the right one, the finish and look from the left one.

That is a great looking instrument
I’m sure it will sound good too

I really like the t-bird pickups aged and without the mounting rings....

Question for the IMA4 owners: Ian describes the neck as having less taper from nut to bridge. To my understanding that would mean a tighter spacing at the bridge... Is it 19 or 18mm?

 

[bdgotoh]

The spacing at the bridge is 19mm. The IMA4 neck is slightly bigger at the nut than a typical Lull J neck.

Thanks!

Hello my fellow TB’ers and Mike Lull bass owners. I am supposed to get my custom built P4 in Charcoal Frost, in the next month or so. Will post here once I receive it. Just contemplating on Lindy Fralin vs Lull pups in that bass. Can still swap it. I think. Any feedback?

Get the Lull as it is the only way to get it. You can always get a Fralin later. I got two Lull P4s, one with a Lull pickup and the other with a Fralin. They are more similar than different.

Geez, a list from 2013? We have a lot of catching up to do.

 

[bdgotoh]

That list has PWV at 39 and 94.

 

[Holdsg]

maybe he left and came back? we've all done something like that

 

[TheRealGru]

Do I need to have my Lull in hand to get on the list? Mine is being bult right now.

 

[Holdsg]

we need photo evidence and a note from Epstein's mother (70s reference, not current day reference).
