Garry[/quote] Very true Gary, but I have to say it's not my prefered form of Lubrication... That comes from another coastal town, not to far away..... Southwold Les btw... Good to see your a Lakland fan, what is it ?

Pity I can't play yet [/quote] Well you can always use one of our practise rooms and blow your horn as loud as you like and I'm sure 'Big John' our resident guitar teacher would give you some help on the bass Les

Hi all, Sorry I've not caught this thread (and others) sooner, but in the last few months I've (and the rest of my band) have become the proud owners of some rehearsal studios........ Thats the good news. The bad news for most of you, is they are on CANVEY ISLAND !!! These are excellent, comfortable clean rooms and we are adding / up-grading them as funds permit. I would be prepaired to give FREE & Exculesive use of the building (The two main rooms) and two smaller 'Practice' rooms (mind your heads tho !!) Amble free parking and very easy access. No volume limits (within reason!) Providing someone is prepaired to organise etc, We will take care of the catering side depending on what bass chaters would want..... Tea's, Coffees, Cans, Cakes etc. We would need to cover the costs of that tho So if this venue is of interest for a Bass Day, please let me know This is a popular studio and is used by some 'very famous' people !!!

Had 7 Lakies so far (still have 3) and swear by them. I've never had a quality issue with them, although there was an neck alignment problem on a Skyline JO4 that I was not aware of until after I sold it !! The USA basses are much better than the Skylines, but NOT worth paying 3 or 4 times more unless your a label snob ! I got out-bid on a 55-01 on e-bay last week that went for £420 ( a steal) and theres a very nice 55-02 D/L on here for £800 ish, but be fast as I'm struggling to restrain myself. I bought a Status S2 5, two weeks ago in frustration at not being able to find a 55-02 !! Buy one... you wont be dissapointed

Have just received my S2, 5 string from Lancastercomputors as advertised on here... What a lovely Bass. Now just got to fathom out what all the knobs do !!

Correction.... Scale is 34"
