Hi, guys. I'm after a sale or trade on my Lakland Skyline DJ5. I bought it quite recently from a chap who had only owned it a year from new (I have a scan of the original receipt). It's a gorgeous bit of kit but I can never make my mind up. Classic GAS sufferer! The neck is a joy to play and the overall balance is great. Brand new strings. No marks or dings that I can see. I'll list as many specs as I can below.
Swamp ash body (gloss natural finish)
Maple neck and fingerboard (both satin natural)
Block inlays
3 ply black/white/black pick guard
Hipshot tuners
35" Scale
String spacing at bridge (18-19mm approx)
Nut width 45mm
21 Frets
Single coil J pickups (passive)
volume/ volume/ tone controls (as per standard jazz bass)
Status hotwires premium round stainless steel strings (new) 45-130
Apologies for the orientation of the pics. It doesn't seem to matter what camera I use or how I rotate them before uploading, they always end up sideways. Please download and rotate in your preview window for a good look without having to tilt your head!
I'm interested in trades for a 34" scale jazz-style bass. It must be a 5 string, but passive or active is fine. Particularly interested in Sandberg TT, TM or VM series (I know VM is a Stingray/P style but I like 'em anyway!) and Fender USA stuff.
Based in Gloucester but I travel all over the place for gigs so try me if you're worried about distance.
Please PM me if you have any questions or anything to offer in exchange.
