[quote name='mikeh' post='149190' date='Feb 29 2008, 09:23 PM']That Marcus is UGLY, you really need to get shut. I know just the person !!!! [/quote] I wonder Matt, no the K5 wouldn't normally have been my thing, but I just liked the look of them, regardless of the Korn link. It has such a great range of tones, and it's very playable indeed, I'm very impressed with it.

Ta. OLP is soon to have Villex electonics dropped in it. That should beef it up a tad.

Absolutely sir, and let us know when you've got a gig a bit further north too.

Cheers Al, yeah it was good, pity it wasn't for longer. Nae mind, we'll have more time on the 16th.

Latest updated pic after the arrival of the Marcus and the K5.

You could offer Alan 2K for his Lakland DJ5, I'm sure he'd accept .

I think Steve's nailed it there really. The only difference between the two, [i]in my experience[/i], is the price.

Yeah that looks nice. The body shape looks like it's a comfortable play too, a bit Soungear like.

[quote name='Hamster' post='145828' date='Feb 24 2008, 07:25 AM']The Wizard Thumper also has a very good reputation for around the same price. Hamster[/quote] +1 the Thumper is your best bet in my opinion.

I had TI flats on a Lakland JO4 I had, they were fantastic, nice feel, great tone, couldn't fault 'em.

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='145134' date='Feb 22 2008, 03:57 PM']Be great to see you there Russ [/quote] Looking forward to it mate. Just paid for the Marcus, picking up the K5 tonight, sorted. Looks like my 2 basses only rule just went up to 5 in the space of a month.

[quote name='ped' post='144916' date='Feb 22 2008, 11:46 AM']Definitely!! What will you be bringing? Can you find it OK? ped[/quote] Well as it happens I have a customer on the same road, so I know where Snowdon Rd is in St Annes. Gear wise, a choice of Villex loaded jazz, Stingray, Marcus Miller Jazz, OLP Tony Levin and maybe an Ibanez K5 depending on circumstances, so it's a question of what would be of interest to everyone. I guess the Villex jazz would be a definate possibility.

DAVE !! Long time no see mate. Russ.

Just spotted this, have you got room for another one?

Nice Al, very nice. Have you tried Thomastik flats? Nice bright click to them, not at all woolly like some flats I've tried, they were magic on that Lakland JO4 I had from Mike. Can you believe I'm on the brink of buying another Marcus Jazz? After selling the one I had from you, and regretting it about 5 minutes later. If I don't get it, a Lakland DJ4 might be next on the hitlist, haven't decided yet.

Very interesting, thanks for that. I was reading the piece, expecting him to say he'd dropped it a snapped it in half or something!!

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='141260' date='Feb 15 2008, 06:23 PM']Brilliant I sold mine ages ago and wish that I hadn't[/quote] Ditto. I'm very tempted to buy another one, I miss mine a lot.

Done, good luck.

I rehearsed with them today, top band, nice blokes, a good opportunity for someone.
