I love my LB-100, but was itching to add something that offered a few more sounds than the single pickup LB. The trick for me is to find something that wouldn't be sonically redundant. Already having a humbucker guitar, I set my sights on something with single coils.
Then I came across this, which I simply couldn't resist. It is exactly what I would have special ordered through a dealer if I had the money. Thankfully it was on sale for a song, so I had to sing the song of joy for I knew this would be a sweet axe

As an added bonus, my wife REALLY likes it too

So what is the new acquisition and where did I find it?
My New Bass
The shop is called Maple Leaf Music in NH; I found this quite appropriate since I'm a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
So I call the shop first thing Friday morning (a week ago) and arrange to have it shipped to my door. The next evening I am checking out their website and discover that the owner of this small shop is a graduate of The Evergreen State College-- the very school I'm graduating from (as an older-but-wiser student) next Friday


I know, I know-- who cares? Wheres the photos? In addition to those on the shops website, here are a few of my own:







The bass actually arrived yesterday via Fed Ex, and I put it straight into service-- literally. I played it in one of our Sunday morning services at church today


As Mr. Bueller might say...

Still floating on Cloud Nine!
