Hi Guy's
Here we have my Lakland JO5 (korean 2007) bought form Moresfull a few months ago (nice guy hope the new bass is making you smile). Despite my best efforts I just can not get on with the 35inch scale. This bass is lovely and in great condition. It has a couple of very minor scratches (see images) and the bridges saddles need a good cleaning. I'm sure a lot of people will see these imperfections as character but I think they need pointing out.
The pics show a Jretro pre amp which has now been removed and sold to another great basschater,the original plate and controls have been re-fitted .You can try before you buy along with tea and biscuits.This bass will not disappoint..

NOW £525 only for sale until Saturday then bass will be withdrawn

Collection from Stoke or Del at buyers cost. I am willing to meet up within reason.
Cheers for looking

The Lakland pickups replicate vintage bass tones as well as we've ever heard and players love the comfy taper of the Osborn's neck.[list]

Thanks for that juliusmonk, I agree I just can't get 100% comfortable with scale length and string spacing after playing Warwicks for so long.Just wish I had a bit more skill to adapt.I think I will give this another week then it could be off to the shops to trade.
Cheers

Thanks for the comments guys just wish I could have got used to it. A great bass with low action and nice even sound all over the fretbaord. Better than nearly all the Fenders I have ever played (and I have been through a lot) with the exception of recent road worn and a jaco I owned for quite a while. Just missed out on a trade I was going to do so looks like this is going into hybernation for a while.
Cheers
