dave_bass5 Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) Guys. Some of you may know my situation but for those who dont, I've just gone back to 5 string so this bass is no longer needed. Its a fantastic bass IMO. Very fast jazz style neck and the fralin pup is very punchy. Ive had it since Feb this year (2008) and its been well looked after although of course its been gigged. Other than a couple of small chips in the headstock i cant see any scratches or dents etc. It comes with three pick guards. The pearl white one in the photo plus a Black one and the original white one. Im looking for around £510 collected from central London. open to offers but not trades. You can see more pics of it here. [url="http://davepearce.smugmug.com/gallery/6486570_7HNmx"]Duck Dunn gallery[/url] And full spec's on Laklands website [url="http://www.lakland.com/dunn.htm"]Lakland[/url] Comes with 3 year (minus how long ive had it ;-) Thomann's warranty as well. Cheers. EDIT: Im not going to sell the other pick guards separately at this moment in time. Edited March 20, 2009 by dave_bass5
Mike Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 Are you open to offers of the pickguards? Would love a pearl one. How does it look with the black on? Got a picture?
dave_bass5 Posted November 10, 2008 Author Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) Hi. No sorry, im not going to split the PG's unless the buyer doesn't want them. Then either one of us can sell them on. Ill update the first post. As requested, with black PG. Edited November 10, 2008 by dave_bass5

I've been torn between the black and the PW but i feel the PW matches the white binding on the neck. I also feel the PW makes it look a bit more "show band" though. Not sure if that's good or bad.

SkinnyMike Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 Guys, i had one of these not so long ago and if your a P-bass player these basses are absolutely fantastic and at this price its a gem! Dave, it looks fabulous with the Black scratch plate. I too have a thing about red and black basses, my red Jo5 looks just like the jazz featured a few posts above. Good luck with with sale matey
bigthumb Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 Gorgeous bass and defiantly the black plate but I think the neck's going to be way too slim for my likings.

I only ever use one bass, at home or on gigs. the bass im using now is the P5 so i dont need anything else. Im keeping my HW-1 Jazz as its nice to have a P and J although i doubt ill ever use the Jazz again. It would be nice to have a Lakland (and of course a better Jazz) but i cant see me using it. I see no point having two P's though and thats the reason im selling the DD now.

I guess it might be the wrong time of the year to be selling stuff and to be honest im in no hurry but there isnt much point it sitting around at home . buigthumb. The neck is quite thin and flat. I really liked it until the P5 arrived, now i find it a bit strange to play although its still the fastest neck i have played.
