I bought this for a project that never took off, so it has sat largely unplayed, which is a shame as it’s a lot of bass for the money. This is one for those who like to seriously down-tune. Pretty rare, not least that it’s a 35” 4 string. Niche & Awesome lol. It’s currently strung/tuned in Drop B. Features: - Neck-thru-body construction - 35” scale - Mahogany body - 5-piece maple & walnut neck - Ebony fingerboard - Anniversary inlay - EMG 35-DC/P4 active pickups - Volume & balance controls - EMG B64 active EQ - Black hardware - Grover tuners - ESP BB-604 bridge - 24 XJ frets I’ll get a weight asap but it’s pretty decent in my view. It’s in decent condition, but with it being a satin/matte type finish, there is some play-wear and bumps/dings as you’d expect, including some areas that have ‘glossed-up’ through use. I’ve tried to capture any imperfections below. Comes with a very simple gig bag, and as such would prefer collection/meet-up. I’m in High Wycombe. £375 - big price drop just before Christmas.

Indonesia, the changeover was 2008/2009 (both factories were Cort interestingly), so this would be a very early Indonesian build, certainly before the changed the neck specs as mentioned. Si

Hi all, Moving on this fantastic 2008 Lakland 55-02 for a couple of different reasons; I’m primarily a 4 string player and I’m looking to order another Lakland US bass. Last in, first out and all that. This bass is stock, so Lakland LH3 pickups/preamp, as well as the more slimmer thickness neck, before they changed to the more recent chunkier necks. The colour is a solid ‘piano’ black, not a black sparkle like more recent 55-02s. The bass is in great condition, no wear to write home about other than the standard swirling you might see on a 17 year old bass. The input jack has a slight intermittent issue which would be a simple fix for anyone with a soldering iron. Typically I would, but only have lead solder and don’t want to have the fumes with a new baby in the house. Weight wise it’s pretty much bang on 9lbs (see photo). Not unusual for Skylines of this era, but fairly rare of the newer ones. These are the only pictures I have of it so far, will grab a few more tomorrow (along with a post-it haha). Cash is king, but might entertain a Yamaha 235 or Sire P5 5 string in part-ex. Don’t really have the means/brain space to ship it at the moment, so pickup/meetup preferred. I’m in Hazlemere, Bucks, basically High Wycombe. £850 inc basic gig bag if needed. Cheers Si
