Platypus Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) <<< NOW SOLD>>> Lakland 5501 Dlx 5 string. The bass has had the pickups upgraded with Nordstrang Fatstack at the bridge and Big Single at the neck. A Glockenklang 3 band pre is fitted which also allows full passive use. When in passive mode, the treble pot becomes a tone control. I bought this bass from GarBev a while back and am selling as I have aquired three basses lately and can't keep tham all - I'm also favouring 4 strings at the moment. Comes with a fitted ABS hard case Reuse of Garbev's pics here [attachment=21984:5501_1.jpg] [attachment=21985:5501_2.jpg] [attachment=21986:5501_4.jpg] Link to original add here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=35822&hl=garbev"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...2&hl=garbev[/url] I'm based in Harrow Middx, any trial welcome.

Golchen Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 It's the bright colour that puts me off. I wonder what it would cost to get it refinished in a different colour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
