Hey guys, funkycarnivore here.  Just wanted to update this thread because DaveW contacted me about it way back when.  Anyway, I still have the Leland bass.  I'm not planning on selling it because Leland is my favourite player of all time.  It also only cost me $500, and I probably won't run into another one for quite some time.  Anyway, my buddies from Looperlative did me a big favour and kept the bass in their booth at NAMM this year.  Lee also happened to be there, and he added a little something to my bass!


So what do you think of the bass?

Do you play it much?

Hey Jer, good to "see" you again!
The guy who bought the same bass twice — first in 1977 and again in 2023

Now it's a "signature signature" bass! Did Herr Sklar say anything about it, some small comment of appreciation? I've never seen a pic of him playing one; he did hold one for the Gibson promo pics at the time though.
