Hutton Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) Up for sale is my 2007 Lakland DJ4 in Lake Placid Blue with Rosewood fingerboard. The bass was made in Korea and is fitted with Lakland pickups. Included in the sale will be; an aftermarket hard case, the Lakland gig bag and a Hipshot X-tender which I removed and replaced with the correct Hipshot tuner. The only mark on the bass is small and hardly noticeable but I have included it in the photographs for the sake of transparency. This is an extremely well-made, nice sounding, and playable bass. I will be happy to answer any questions which potential purchasers may have. I am looking for £750 which will include delivery to the UK only.

bongo61 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Hi Keith, I see you have some equipment similar to mine. Have you played the Lakland with the Mesa or the Markbass ? Which one does it go along with better ? Sven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus27 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Wow, I never ever thought I would see this for sale Hutton. Got your eye on something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutton Posted October 28, 2011 Author Share Posted October 28, 2011 Hi Sven, I actually live in a town called Keith in Scotland. My name is Hutton. Anyway, I have played the DJ4 through both rigs with very satisfying results. I don't think that one is necessarily better than the other, just different. One is a 300 watt 1X12 with the other being 500 watts and a 4X10. Both rigs are excellent. Thanks for your question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I have just bought another precision and had to make a decision based on finance and not on my desire to have the DJ4 in my collection.

Hutton Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 I have decided that I really like this bass too much to let it go. The lady of the house agrees - what a woman! So thanks for all the interest and the kind posts but the DJ4 is now withdrawn. Hooray!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Stathatos Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Hi, I know this is an old topic, though... This bass seems to be on sale on ebay at the moment. It has the same nick just below the input jack. I'm guessing its not the original owner as the person selling it is living in Oldham Greater Manchester. Does any one know the sale history? If it is the same bass, the current owner must have had it just a couple of months... Cheers, James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus27 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Hiya, I sold the bass to Hutton a year or two back. Before I had it, Happy Jack was the previous owner. It is a great bass and is in perfect condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, James [/quote] If you look elsewhere on the for sale forum you will see that the current owner is trying to trade the DJ4. I traded the bass with the current owner who also has the bass available on ebay. There is nothing unusual about that. There is also nothing unusual that the current owner has only had the bass a few months. If you don't mind me saying this is a rather strange way to introduce yourself to basschat. Why do you feel it necessary to point all this out by resurrecting this old thread? Old for sale threads often confuse the matter and are better left in the archives.

James Stathatos Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Sorry Hutton, I didn't know I was breaking any rules I'm new to bass chat so not sure how you do things properly. This is the thread that I found the pix showing it might be the same bass so it made sense to me to post on here. I'm just asking cause I'm interested in the bass myself and thought I'd find out the history. I would just have expected someone spending X hundreds of pounds on a bass to want to keep it a while before giving up on it. Maybe thats just me so fair enough... Anyway, thanks to all for your input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
