discreet Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Oof! Are those chi-sonic pickups, or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 Yep, single coil Chisonics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Hmm not bad. About time they did something new with the Skylines - i'm just not sure about that colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discreet Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 So different colour, different pick guard, different board and we're sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 Even in that colour with that fretboard and that pickguard ... they will sell quite a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 If they do a custom version with block inlays and a matching headstock it'd be a bit nicer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 That looks tasty!! I have to say I have become a Lakland convert after getting my 55-02 and I really don't need the temptation to get a 5 string Jazz. They do it with Tort pickguard as well.

Grahambythesea Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Perhaps with an anodised gold scratch plate and gold hardware or is that too much of the Midas touch! 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That's an option on the US model but then you can have any colour finish too. No doubt one could get a tort guard for the Skyline version if preferred.

Treb Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Nice! They should make a DJ-Sonic too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
