Hi everyone
Selling this 2008 Lakland Skyline 55-02. It's no longer needed as I think I've just found my holy grail 5-string 😇. It's in good condition, just a few small bumps and scratches, hard to photograph and barely noticeable in person too.
It's a great bass, really versatile and just feels right. The neck is absolute 5-string perfection in my opinion - a bit slimmer than the newer 55-02s, satin finish and fairly narrow at the nut. Nice low action. Also, maybe the sexiest 5-string headstock out there??
I've had a lot of compliments about the sound of this bass from sound engineers etc. Nice tight B string aided by the 35" scale and string-through option.
It's pretty light - 4.1kg on digital kitchen scales - and balances nicely.
It has served me well but I prefer 34" scale, and I only ever find myself seeking Fender-y tones so a jazz suits me better.
Collection/meet up preferred.
Thanks for looking.
