WITHDRAWN LAKLAND SKYLINE JOE OSBORN 5 STRING (KOREAN 2007) 3TB FS/FT PRICE DROP NOW £525 £595

[WAYNESWORLD]

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NOW £525 only for sale until Saturday then bass will be withdrawn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

What is the weight?

[WAYNESWORLD]

Hi Chris
Just put it on the bathroom scales its showing just over 10lbs but I would allow a pound or so either way as the scales are not that great.

These basses are fantastic, and this is a bargain!

[WAYNESWORLD]

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

I'm astonished this bass is still available.

[WAYNESWORLD]

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
