Hope his shop is only temporally closed, maybe due to Covid related supply issues. In the meantime, here is a cool home video that Dan shot back in the early 90s, showing the birth of the Lakland basses 🙂

Interesting. Did not know that Dan Lakin was involved. Does anyone know what happened to him? His shop is currently closed: https://www.dlakinbasses.com

Man, you really must love this bass. Because, why would you otherwise buy the exact same model with the exact same finish five times? 😉

Man, I am normally not a huge Rick fan but this one looks killer indeed 🤩

Well, as you know, I am happy to take one from you. Always happy to help 😉

Sorry, but there is only one winner and that's me. Bought one bass and sold seven so far, which brings me to -6. Who can beat that? Exactly, no one, WINNING 😁

Great looking bass. Congrats 👍 I had the P bass twin. Sounded and looked great. Very nice neck profile too. Only sold it as I got an Ernie Ball Cutlass and both basses were sonically in the same ballpark (pun intended ;- ) I decided to keep the Cutlass and sell the Pro II. I think it sold in one or two days and I hope the new owner is very happy with it!

Still looking for an EBMM Stingray 4 H, 2 EQ, natural finish, maple fingerboard, with body contours (so no Classic or pre-EB). Just cannot find one. I am sure they are out there, somewhere, but my search seems to always end up in the well-known destination - nowhere 😞

RIP Mark 😢

There will be another Forte and a NS-2 appearing there very soon too 😉

Thinking of it, does that not mean that one woman joining the band is ok as it clearly mentions the plural? 😎

Hmm, let me guess: A bass?

Purrfection indeed 😍

Black + maple = perfection

No, no, it's fine, it's called shrinkflation 😉

Spector fans, decided to thin the Spector herd. Both my 2018 Forte 4 in Vintage Tint Ash (only two were ever made in this finish, PJ Rubal has the other one) and my 2021 NS-2 in lava burst (well, that's what I call it anyway ;- ) are on their way out. Both are in "as new" condition as they have never left my living room and I only played them a few times each. I won't put them on BC, reverb, ebay etc. as I don't have the time to deal with all the hassle. However, I am always happy to hear from a fellow Spector friend from this thread (and I only mention it here). Think of getting them to BD by the end of next week the latest. So, let me know via PM if you are interested before I send them to BD and save yourself some quid before you buy them from BD anyway 😉

Nice but it immediately makes me think of this classic 😎

I've been to Oz several times. Great place. It is just too far away. However, I could see myself spending our autumn/winter there (i.e. their spring/summer) and our spring/summer here. Problem is that, at least so far, I have not been able to find two employers who buy into this idea too 😉
