Sandberg California VM4 vs Lakeland Skyline 44 64 Custom PJ?

[Pirellithecat]

Hi, 

Anyone have experience of both of the above and willing to share?  

I really like my Sandberg - it's the nicest bass I've ever played and it is superbly built .... looks Ace too!    Sounds great for more modern stuff, but maybe not ideal for the old 70's Rock.   I do have a P which serves for the "Old School" material, but now find myself in a new band doing a really wide range of material (from Creedance Clearwater to The Strokes).   So, I was wondering about investing in a new bass which might cover all the bases.   I like a narrower neck than a Fender P - max 40mm is good, and wondered about the Lakland. 

 

So, if anyone has had both I'd be very interested in hearing about your experience.

In the event that no-one has owned both of the basses in question, would anyone share their experience with the with the Lakland 44 64 PJ?   Really difficult to find one within a three hour drive so thought I'd seek opinions here before another sortie into metropolitan Britain.
