Gust0o Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) Afternoon all. I took this in as a trade, and will admit it's good; very good - it's standard Lakland quality. The bass is robust, yet feather-light; the maple neck and board is superb, and is a quick player; the Lakland pick-ups and pre-amp give the bass some real flexibility. Condition is maybe 8 or 9/10. There's a full write-up of the specs on the Lakland site: [url="http://lakland.com/44-02.htm"]http://lakland.com/44-02.htm[/url] All in all, superb - I'll have no qualms about keeping it... but, if I can, I'd like to use it as collateral against a 3EQ Stingray. Colour preference would be black, with Rosewood (already have a black and maple), but am not fussy - providing the Stingray is of similiar condition. Happy to add cash, if required, to secure the right deal. Pic attached, but happy to provide more over the weekend as required.

Gust0o Posted May 12, 2012 Author Posted May 12, 2012 Well, my sales threads are always riotous affairs Do we have any specific requests for pics, or should I simply grab a handful?
sime17 Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1336854490' post='1652074'] Well, my sales threads are always riotous affairs [/quote] Dude! BUMP for some Lakland lurve. Dunno why no buzz on here - I had a 5502 and it was very very nice - I only got rid cos Lakland 5s (unlike their 4s) are 35" scale and I find 34" more comfortable. If i had the readies I wouldn't mind one of these.
KennysFord Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 This is the one Lakland I loose sleep over !! The right colour and a maple neck. Sadly I don't have anything on your list to trade. I am subscribed tho' just in case a cash price comes up.

This one, however, has just been traded - sorry to disappoint. Hope you get one in the end, as I think you'll really enjoy it
chuck_stones Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 Mmm, always regretted trading my Lakie... I don't suppose you'd consider selling. Not that I currently have funds, but if you were I might sell a body part or two
