five2one Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) I bought the bass brand new in 2008 and today the neck remains the same. From the Lakland website: [url="https://www.lakland.com/faq.htm"]Lakland FAQ[/url] [b]Q. What recommendations do you have for maintaining the neck on my US made Lakland bass? [/b] A.

ikay Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Thanks, I just noticed the change in colour near the headstock which must be where it changes from a lacquer finish to the oil finish. Weight would be good to know if you can add that. Very lovely bass indeed Edited November 19, 2014 by ikay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

three Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I had one of these - they feel light and balance beautifully. The neck looks about right to me too - superbly comfortable and playable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulie Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 The entire neck on these bases is oil including the headstock (rear) The result is at after a couple of years playing they age beautifully. My Joe Osbourn feels like a pre CBS jazz. The more wear on the back of the neck, the better I say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliusmonk Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I have one of these and the neck is superb. It shows the same colour change, nothing wrong with that. Glwts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
