giblett123 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Evening everyone, Here we have the latest in my “fund raising clear out”; this is my Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub, which I’ve had for about 12 months from new. The bass is in stunning condition, and has been professionally upgraded by Nigel Roberts at Leicestershire luthier. I wasn’t overly keen on the original frets so Nigel has re-fretted this with a smaller gold Evo fret wire, also in the process I got him to drop in a Bare Knuckle 65 custom wound pickup and stick on some TI flats + full set up. Condition wise it is first rate and has no issues whatsoever. Playing wise it has a serious vintage P bass thump, a great sounding bass but not getting a huge amount of playing at the mo. Sold pending the usual. Cheers for looking Chris. Edited April 19, 2011 by giblett123

In terms of price I’m looking for £650 (Inc Lakland bag), I can ship if required but no trades this time please, it’s a fund raiser. Cheers for looking Chris.[/quote] PS, for those who've asked, its the Korean built version, not Indonesian although I'm not sure there is much difference!
karlfer Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 I don't suppose it's one of the rarer ones with 1.5 inch nut width is it? Cheers, Karl.
