[quote name='silverfoxnik' timestamp='1374048297' post='2144511'] It just staggers me that this hasn't sold yet! I was interested initially but unfortunately, needing to put funds into a lightweight rig has meant I couldn't go for this... But seriously, a[b] 5 string Lakland bass[/b] with [b]Nordstrand pick ups[/b] for [b]only £500 [/b]is just madness!!! [/quote] Cheers dude , yeah i know its madness - maybe its too cheap and i should put it up to raise more interest - I've had my fair share of dreamers on this sale but its still here; its a serious piece of kit for a player who knows their basses.......i'm going to give it a few more days i think. I really felt the love with it last weekend at a gig and am quite tempted to keep it, hard pushed really to get a better 5.

Interested in my Lakland 5501 that i have up on here?

A considering selling my USA 5 Fender and keeping this one bump

I've got a USA fender 5 or 4 Jazz or a Lakland 5501 up for sale here if your interested in a trade?

Still here

[quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1373067980' post='2133522'] If Rasta says it's a good neck, I will believe him [/quote] Ah yes...totally awesome bass all round. If my Lakland sells i'd be very tempted on having this back

Haha that could be the way. Have had loads of interest but no firms...so this beauty is still up for grabs a will make someone very happy

Interested in trades at all? I have a 5 string Lakland for sale and a but if cash your way ?

Did you see the Lakland? I had some issues with pictures apparently.

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1372705419' post='2128913'] Hi Rasta mate I think there's still a prob I cannot see the picture of the front of the bass and I also cannot believe it has not sold yet [/quote] Cheers for letting me know buddy, not sure what is happening here as i can see them on my PC. I've put a link to the old pics on the main thread and tried to upload another pic. I'm equally surprised its still here too, although i don't mind as i get to keep it longer. I'm actually coming around to considering keeping it and perhaps selling my Fender 5 and or/my Fender 4 for that matter - the Laky hands down is a better quality bass.

I've had emails saying peeps can't see the front of the bass??? Weird as i can in the post. Anyhow here it is again for those who cannot see it. Let me know if its still problematic.

Here mate, :- [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/206648-fsft-lakland-5501-with-nordstrands-absolute-bargain-l500-new-pics-update/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/206648-fsft-lakland-5501-with-nordstrands-absolute-bargain-l500-new-pics-update/[/url] - Awesome 5 if i'm honest, just I don't need two 5's right now and the other i gotta keep for 'long story' reasons despite the Lakland being a much FAR superior bass, better sounding, better B string (Laklands have the best low B's ), better versatility....blah blah PM if your keen

No worries, although I'd have to say Laklands make a 5 string easier - good luck with the sale buddy

My Lakland 5501 with Nordies and little cash your way perhaps ?

Trade for my Lakland 5501 that's up for sale and a little cash your way?

[quote name='krispn' timestamp='1371558531' post='2115447'] I didn't get a chance to try a 5 string lakland yet but did play a bass yesterday with the Nordstrand pick ups. The sound fantastic and the solo'd neck pick up is really nice. I just bought a new to me imac as my laptop melted otherwise I'd be all over this. Maybe in a few months if it's still here! [/quote] Yeah the Nordies really make this bass. The neck sounds very P bass like and has a great soul warm tone. iMacs are the way to go too, good man

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1371412261' post='2113611'] I agree I think people are put off by the stickers and it is a nice bass [/quote] yeah I'll take your advice on that one it really is a top bass, surprised no ones snapped it up yet

Interested in my Lakland 5501 I have for sale?

[quote name='topo morto' timestamp='1370555883' post='2102822'] Very tempted indeed... just that having picked up a BB425X not so long ago I am struggling to think of an excuse! [/quote] An excuse is that Laklands are beautiful players and the best tight low B strings ever...nuff said

[quote name='owen' timestamp='1370554639' post='2102795'] Ugh! This is nuts. Right scale length, right pickups. Why is this still here? [/quote] Yeah mate i'm surprised too, especially at this price. Sign of the times i guess . I'll keep on bumping now and then, but equally i'll keep on playing it too whilst its in my hands....best low 'B's ever on Laky's.

If you want to add some dosh i have a nice Lakland 5501 for sale in the 'For sale' section.
