I guess Lull basses will never be a big hit in Holland. The bassist of a befriended band played one for a while and he was continuously the aim of lots of jokes.  :mrgreen:

When I first read your post I swear to god I thought you'd written "beheaded band"!

We Amis often have similar thoughts about the Dutch and their dykes   ;)

Yeah, there's a famous Dutch band called De Dijk. No big succes in the US, because of the name and the Dutch language songs...

'Our' experts helped to improve 'your' dykes in New Orleans after the flooding, btw ;)

American dykes needed their holes filled.

that green one is really sweet.  what is under the strings near the bridge???  Looks like foam -  to mute it up? 

The lull looks really sweet too.  is that a metalic color or is that the flash.    I am awaiting my bachbird.  Due to arrive at Rob's any day now.  How does it compare to the others constructiona and playing wise.  I read your other post about the sound and that seems to be the general opinion.  I am planning on getting a lull pup when it shows up and if i like it enough to go for 600+ on pickups.  i will have to compare it to my 76 bi  (staying with the dyke mode) and see if which way i want to go on the pups.  Pots and cap will help it but i will see.....
