SOLD - Lakland 5501 with Nordstrand pickups - Now £420 plus p+p £450

[bigevilman]

Due to car troubles, selling my lakland 55-01.

This has been my gigging bass for last few years and its been my dream bass. The nordstrands make it sound lush (its passive).

Now £420! Dont make me drop it lower people, this is hard enough as it is

Thought the 5501 had bartolini pups

Seems like a bit of a bargain for someone. The pickups have been replaced I think jassbass.

[silverfoxnik]

The Nordstrand pick ups are a definite upgrade on the Bartolinis, that's for sure. This is a lot of bass for the money, as the saying goes.

Is it active still?

[bigevilman]

No, Passive - cant remember but someone on the forum set it up.

I had this and a standard 5501 and this one quickly became my go-to.

Honestly if I didnt need to sell, I wouldnt, but with a grand car bill, I need to release some equity

Morning Study Bump

[NickD]

What are the controls now then, and what's the added switch for?

[bigevilman]

Volume and tone for each, a blend knob, and the switch flicks between series and parallel....pretty much every passive adjustment possible!

[bigevilman]

Bumpety bump

[bigevilman]

Sold!

[jimbobothy]

... one of the best bargains for the new owner!
