[quote name='charic' post='193640' date='May 7 2008, 09:32 AM']lovely looking bass, good luck with sale. I need to be rich :'([/quote] Don't we all . . I just want to get my money back !

Like you said the basic 'machine' is very good, that along with classic P look, but added to the wide tonal range its an excellent bass for someone who would like a variety of tones from a P-Bass Sat and played it last night and I wish I could afford to keep it ! . . . . and at this price its a hoofing bargain too missus

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='193318' date='May 6 2008, 09:02 PM']Before you knock it or if you want to see what it sounds like then try it (with Adees agreement of course). If you want a standard Bob Glaub then just buy one.[/quote] Around £889 will buy you a new one at GAK or Thomann ! This one is £475 with £200 odd quids worth of Mods Thanks Peter, Anyone is welcome to try the bass, it is great, BUT as I have said I can only keep one and the Fender stays !

[quote name='Platypus' post='193289' date='May 6 2008, 08:40 PM']Getting a bit tetchy are we ?[/quote] Thanks, here we go again, as soon as someone sniffs a fight they are in there like a shot What I'm trying to say is please DON'T P*SS ON SOMEONES FIRE !

[quote name='paul, the' post='190013' date='May 1 2008, 09:00 PM']I can't deny Lakland quality, and it looks great. Where are the Fralins it was born with?[/quote] In my P-Bass

Theres nothing actually wrong with it, Marcus had an offer of an Amp that he couldnt refuse Mart plays classic rock so preferred his US P-Bass and I also play in a covers band and in a toss up between the Lakland and my Fender P, I decided to keep the Fender as thats what I'm used to If you want a bass with great tonal adjustment and a bass that is punchy and can 'cut through' then this is the bass for you, especially one of this quality and has classic looks too Black / Black / Maple too ! If I could justify AND afford to keep three bass guitars I would, but I just cant afford to keep it. £500 needs to go back in the bank where it actually belongs. I robbed Peter to pay Paul and now Peter wants his money back !

Theres nowt wrong with this bass yer naaa, come and have a go if your pondering Think a P-Bass cossed with a 'Ray with massive tonal range !

Will also have the Black scratchplate that can be seen in first pic just added (Thanks Mart) Anymore for anymore?

I have decided to sell the Lakland Bob Glaub Skyline I bought off Mart a couple of weeks ago It was either keep the Lakland and sell my USA P-Bass or 'tuther way round ! After doing 4 gigs with the Lakky I've decided I like the simplicity of the P-Bass Thats not to say there is anything wrong with the the BG the tonal range of the Villex pickup is amazing If I could afford to keep both, I would if I could . . . but I cant ! It was never an option to keep both Link to : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=16060&hl=lakland+bob+glaub"]Original for sale ad by Marcus[/url] [size=5][b]Will accept £475[/b][/size] Collection from Corby, Northants or possibly meet halfway for fuel Could accept Paypal of that helps spread the cost, but you would have to help with the charges ! I also have it for sale on Ebay at £525 see link for more pix etc [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LAKLAND-Bob-Glaub-Precision-P-Bass-w-Villex-Pick-up_W0QQitemZ260233890850QQihZ016QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]eBay[/url]

The bass aint for sale at £450 ! I paid £470 and it cost me £30 fuel to collect it, hence the £500 - Thats if the price I paid actually has anything to do with anyone apart from Mart and myself, thank you very much The bass has been passed from pillar to post on this forum and I thought it best to put it out of its misery on Ebay. Yes the initial price was a bit hefty but why should I give it away? I can't afford to keep it hanging around as I said before I was to sell the Fender to fund the Lakky. This is the typical Bassworld / Basschat person bashing that gives this forum a bad reputation, I actually think some you you get off on it. As for the Fralin pup, its going in my Fender P-Bass for now until I decide what I am doing with it.

[quote name='obbm' post='185044' date='Apr 25 2008, 08:20 AM']Seeing as you are not putting it back to original are you going to sell me back the Lindy Fralin?[/quote] I'm going to try it in my Fender P-Bass first, you can have it back if I don't keep it in there Ade

I was a bit embarrassed, its been through 3 or 4 people in as many weeks Thats got to get the alarm bells ringing, so I thought I'd put it on Ebay rather than have little or no interest here. I certainly wasnt going to put it on ebay for £500 ! The common factor here is that everyone who has owned this bass, have Fender P-Basses and this Lakland is NOT a P-Bass anymore to my ears If anyone is interested in the bass drop me a PM Toasted has offered some interest but havent heard from him again

[quote name='Beedster' post='184954' date='Apr 24 2008, 11:42 PM']Exactly [/quote] I bought this bass with the full intention of selling my USA P-Bass but i love my Fender P too much I like my Fender neck and the basic easy to get sound I said to Mart at the time I was only going to keep one or 'tuther I've done 4 gigs with the Lakland, thats approx 6 hours 'on stage' thats a fair blast ! There is nothing wrong with the bass at all the Villex is great but I suppose its more of a 'Ray tone than a P . . . and I know the price is higher than I paid, but hey I've got to try it on to start with, is it a sin? has anyone else ever bought a bass and sold it for more ?

Nice to meet you Mart Well so far so good, picked the Lakland up Saturday and did it first gig Saturday night ! A full 1 1/2 hour set straright through as well, so no messing about! I found the bass comfortable and didnt notice the extra weight The Villex pup is superb, nice and clear and plenty of tonal adjustment Once I got the hang of how it all works and alters the sound its superb I found it very punchy and with the mid boost could alter the amount of 'attack' to my sound All in all I'm very pleased, probably do a back to back with my P-Bass at some point . . . . . . . but I might have a Fender USA P-Bass with S1 in Butterscotch, black scratchplate and Maple neck up for sale soon.
