Old Horse Murphy Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 (edited) I've had this a matter of weeks and am seriously impressed, but my dream bass has come up and I am going to buy it all being well. In order to do so however I have to sell this beautiful Lakland to fund it. I bought this recently off Paul (Platypus) and am seriously impressed. It's of typical Lakland construction quality, is a good weight and wired up with a Fralin pickup so sounds immense. It is also incredibly easy to play and has a nice thinnish neck (not quite as thin as the DD jazz neck though). It's in a now discontinued colour and is in excellent condition apart from a ding near the bottom strap button. It comes with a Levy's Lakland branded gigbag in excellent condition (apart from the stitching coming loose on the top pocket) and is strung with La Bella Deep Talkin Flats. I'm asking for the price I paid for the bass (£480 plus P&P) but will advertise this on Ebay for a higher price to cover their extortionate fees! This is a quality alternative to Fenders and is a really good deal at this price. Now [b]SOLD[/b] and off the English Channel to a good guy in Belgium Edited March 10, 2010 by Old Horse Murphy
chriswilliams666 Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Damn, if only it had a Jazz Neck! Someones gonna get a bargain!

molan Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Wow - that's a great price for one of these! Nick is a top guy to deal with too So what is the 'dream bass'?
Kev Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Best price iv seen on one of these? Looking at ebay it seems your offering a big forum discount too Lovely looking bass, actually quite tempted despite me usually avoiding laklands...
Linus27 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 I have played this bass at Nick's the other week and all I can say is WOW. It is a stunning bass that sounds and plays beautiful. Someone is going to get a real gem if they buy this bass.
