Second bass to complement a Lakland 55-01

[bigevilman]

After getting on really well with my 55-01, I'm getting rid of my Spector and going all Lakland - the necks are awesome, it feels comfy to play, and the sound is great!

Now I'm after a second bass that will complement the sound. I play in 3 bands, a rock covers band, a glam rock tribute, and a function band that mixes elements of the other 2, as well as some pop songs. I've looked at the 55-02, but I'm not a big fan of the H/S config.

Any one got any suggestions? Like I said, would like to go all Lakland

I had a 55-01 and really liked it, I felt there was something lacking in the sound though, the preamp was a little clanky for me, I tried a 55-02 and was immediately taken with it! Very versatile sounds, the preamp did everything I needed and sounded superb for all the sorts of music you've listed (I play in a covers band doing exactly the sort of thing you've said too)...loved it!

I didn't [i]need[/i] anything else but I did try an ACG and that was my downfall! I miss my 55-02 as it did everything I [i]needed...[/i] but g.a.s will do strange things to rational folks
