BigBeatNut Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 [quote name='Chris Horton' timestamp='1361971731' post='1993801'] would it be faie to say that you are a status and lakland fan ?? [/quote] Simple answer : yes Only slightly more complicated anwser: I love the versatility of the J/MM pickup config, hence the 55-02s and 55-94. Sandbergs and Clovers with the same config (or P/MM) would also work for me but are much less common. The Statuses have always just happened along at the right time. The eclipse was the first fiver, the S1 was a natural follow-on as the first fretless, Shark came along at a very reasonable price for a backup 5, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBeatNut Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 [quote name='marcus bell' timestamp='1361968511' post='1993718'] The black Lakland <3 [/quote] That's my favourite, sound and looks. Only disappointed in that I couldn't easily lay hands on an unlined 55-02 or 55-94. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Is the Rob Allen deep 5 good for metal? Nice bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBeatNut Posted January 18, 2014 Author Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'm pondering getting stuff done to the shark. Lovely to play but the pickup/pre combos doesn't really suit me. Thinking getting someone to install a P+MM combo (MM splittable as per Lakland (3 way) or Clover (4 way)) and a U-retro deluxe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
