I have a beautiful Lakland 55-2 Deluxe in sunburst which I only acquired last weekend that I need to either sell or work some kind of part-ex deal as my dog needs another surgery and I could do with a few extra pounds in the bank to cover the innevitable horrific costs!

It is in immaculate condition and is superbly set-up, currently sporting a set of flat wounds. It is from the "Made in Korea, finished in Chicago" era and sports the Lakland pick-ups and therefore, presumably the Lakland LH-3 eq system (which predates the Lakland pick-ups arrival in the specifications IIRC).

The Lakland electronics are a bit more zingy than the Bartolinis these basses shipped with when they first hit the market. They offer a bit more of the Musicman growl and a bit more of that jazz bass honk than the slightly softer Barts. It makes these basses even closer to the goal Dan Lakin was trying to achieve when he devised them - a blend of classic basses all in one package.

The condition, as mentioned, is superb with the deluxe spec evident in the nicely book matched quilted maple top.

I've put this up with an £850 price tag as that's the value I traded for it.

I don't necessarily need a cash sale, would consider a decent bass plus some cash. Maybe a BB1024x, BB1025x, TRB6, DJ4, JO4, US jazz, Stingray, Streamer Stage I or LX perhaps. Would quite like a 55-01 or possibly 44-01 in any finish except natural or sunburst.

What've you got? Worst that happens is we don't have a deal, but remember I do need raise some cash so straight swaps or "plus £25" probably not going to work.

PM me or drop me txt or call me on 07515 929935. Anyone welcome to come and try it out if genuinely interested and can get to Chepstow.

Cheers,
Pete
