d_g Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 (edited) [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]So the time has come to move on my [b]Lakland Skyline 55-02 DLX[/b]. [/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]It has served me very well over the last couple of years, sounds absolutely brilliant and I'm looking to sell it for the same as I bought it for - [s][b]£775 £750[/b][/s][b] £700[/b][/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]It sounds great, and records really well too, to hear it have a listen [url="http://www.dangilesmusic.co.uk/Recordings.html"]here[/url] to the musical theatre one![/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]It really is a beautiful finish (The DLX in the title simply means it has the great quilted maple top.) It is near-perfect with a few tiny dinks here and there from general use but I had to go looking for them to find them. I tried to take photos of them but none would show up. It has the 35" scale length and a great B string, made in 2002 so it has the Bartolini pickups and preamp which are brilliant. I had the volume push/pull pot replaced at Wunjo's in Denmark street a while ago - good as new now.[/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]I am based in [b]South Bucks[/b] and [b]pickup[/b] would be ideal but am happy to [b]arrange meeting part way[/b] for petrol or I can get a quote for an [b]insured courier[/b]. I do have a really nice hard case for it in which I will throw in for the buyer.[/font] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][size=4]Any questions please get in touch, I really wouldn't sell this if I didn't have to![/size][/font] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][size=4]Thanks[/size][/font] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][size=4]Dan[/size][/font] [size=4][attachment=127949:3.JPG][/size] [size=4][attachment=127950:2.JPG][/size] [size=4][attachment=127951:1.JPG][/size] [size=4][attachment=127952:4.JPG][/size] Edited March 10, 2013 by d_g
d_g Posted February 18, 2013 Author Posted February 18, 2013 Given it a little price drop, any more interest?
d_g Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 4.9kg which must be able 10lb something! Cheers
thepurpleblob Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 I've got one of these and they're great instruments. The decider for me was the wide fingerboard (19mm spacing at the bridge and stays quite wide). This seems rare if you don't want to pay crazy money. Surprisingly similar in weight and feel to a TRB-5 which people may be more familiar with although a bit more 'toppy'. You can get a good twangy sound out of a 55-02. The passive/active switch is handy too. Good luck with the sale!
d_g Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 I will really miss the active/passive switch, it has a really good passive sound too!
d_g Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 All pms replied to. Thanks for the trade offers but I've seen what I want so looking for a sale now really! Cheers Dan
d_g Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Bump for a picture with the case and a price drop!
d_g Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Not really, as I'm using this to fund some other things so need the money, cheers! (If you have something REALLY tempting then try me)
d_g Posted March 3, 2013 Author Posted March 3, 2013 Some very tempting offers in my inbox, but as I said, I'm really looking for money, make me an offer?
d_g Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 Might be interested in a TC RH450 and RS112 or RS210 plus or minus cash!
d_g Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 Thanks for everyone's interest but it is now sold!
Bassection Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 I'm surprised it lasted that long... I'm glad you managed to shift it though!
d_g Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 Yeah, I'd have kept it in a second if it wasn't so heavy, I miss it already!
