Prime_BASS Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 [quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1403593186' post='2484118'] Here's a recent acquisition, a very rare USA Lakland 55-76... possibly the Holy Grail for a Stingray 5 fan who wants 19mm string spacing... that'll be me then! Custom scratch plate added by Martin at The Gallery. Plays like a dream, sounds phenomenal, light as a feather, but still balances beautifully.

BigBeatNut Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 [quote name='bassmayhem' timestamp='1419695119' post='2641969']Here is a picture of my three 55-basses I had simultaneously: the three Musketeers... The top one, the fretted 55-02 "Sir Flatwound" is sold, the other two are in my possession. "Sir Fretless" is a beautiful 55-02 and "Sir Roundwound" is my gorgeous 55-94 Deluxe...[/quote] Nice fretless First dibs on that if you ever decide to sell it Quote

davidak Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I see a lot of Lakland love here these days, so why not to post my latest arrival, traded here on BC: Quote

bassmayhem Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Well, now Blue Joe is at home... [IMG]http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd169/bassmayhem/20150102_163634_zps1312684a.jpg[/IMG] Nice and blue. Only 3,2 kg/7,05 lbs - light as a feather... Quote

[/quote] Well spotted... and the correct model number seems to be 4-76 as you say, not 44-76 as I suggested. A bit pricey once you factor in shipping and import duties, but very nice! http://www.talkbass.com/threads/1998-us-lakland-4-76.1125000/ Quote

Dusty Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Ok, so it's about time I shared my collection as it stands at the end of 2014. A few have come in & a few have gone this year but this is what I have right now (Six I think) !!! and still looking for a 44-51 Precision/ Tele bass 😍 As the Black BG went out, the DJ came in!!

LloydyG10 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 My Current Number 1. [attachment=185592:066.jpg] One of the best sounding 5 strings I've owned. Quote
MikanHannille Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) New Lakland day! Excuse my Atelier Z, but there she is next to it, teal burst 55-94 and the next one is Lakland Tetsuya which I had since last year. Edited March 9, 2015 by MikanHannille Quote
bassmayhem Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Blue Joe with the new matching Reunion Blues Continental, Midnight Series... Quote
JTUK Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Ran my J5 passive last night...and that made me think of Lakland DJ5's again.. Think I'd like a Blue one with RW..?? Quote

JTUK Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Maybe ... or maybe the LPB.................or Teal ?? Quote
JTUK Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 [quote name='MikanHannille' timestamp='1428170704' post='2738803'] Why not both? [/quote] Because it would be my third choice bass.... so its that or a American Deluxe J5 Quote
Dusty Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Two new 44-51's to add to my arsenal!! The one with the Black Plate is a Skyline with a standard neck which was bought whilst I was waiting for my own spec' done to be built. So the the one with the Tort plate was discussed with Lakland and ordered through The Bass Gallery (Martin & Charlie are great guys) in January this year. It's a 44-51M which has the contoured body. The Butterscotch colour is not standard on the US basses so they did this for me and I also requested a Jazz profile neck. They also supplied a Black plate for me as I could not decide what to have. Anyway after 10 months of worry, e-mails and anticipation, my baby arrived on November 20th. So here they both are, gig ready the next day. The USA one is also featured on Laklands Facebook page just before being shipped. Quote
