  5. Fantastic, only used once quality USA built Lakland 5 string bass. Ash body with gorgeous Maple Top, Birds eye Maple fretboard, Lakland pickups & preamp and case. This is a really light bass that plays like a dream, the only reason I'm selling is that I have too many basses so not trades please. From their site: Lakland 5-string basses feature a B-string that is tight, well defined and feels like a natural extension of the instrument – accomplished by combining a 35" scale with the solid anchoring of the string through the body design. The necks on Lakland’s 55 series basses are slightly narrower than other 5-strings, making them as accessible as they are tonally sound. ​For full specification and reviews see [url="http://www.lakland.com/55-94.htm"]http://www.lakland.com/55-94.htm[/url] This bass is real class and as such is priced at £2200.

  7. [size=3][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000]Black Lakland Skyline with maple board in fantastic condition. Some [u]very light[/u] surface scratches on front but they are so light they do not show up in the photographs.[/color][/font][/size] [size=3][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000]For those who are unaware t[/color][color=#000000]he 55-02 is equipped with Lakland's familiar MM/J pickup configuration and custom 3-band preamp used in the US-made 55-94. The controls on the 55-02 are the same as on the 55-01 and the master volume pot can be pulled to bypass the active preamp. The 55-02 has a 3-way toggle for coil splitting. The [/color][color=#000000]35-inch scale necks make for killer low B's! That is why the low tones on Skyline 5-string basses boom with piano-like clarity![/color][/font][/size] [color=#000000][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][size=3]Looking for £850.00 REDUCED TO £700[/size][/font] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000]Available for viewing - I'm in Bristol.[/color][/font][/color][size=3][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000] [/color][/font][/size] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000][size=3]Looking for sale only, no trades please.[/size][/color][/font]
  8. [quote name='throwoff' timestamp='1327271589' post='1508783'] Yep, Also if you ever see Rio Palisander thats Brazillian Rosewood. [/quote] So Brazilian Rosewood is lighter in colour than standard rosewood that you would normally get on say a P bass? If so is it harder or softer as that's gonna affect the sound quite a bit yeah?
  9. [quote name='Immo' timestamp='1327174800' post='1507521'] Fingerboard of every bass that on English-speaking sites is advertised to be 'rosewood' is described on Polish sites as 'palisander' as it is a Polish word for 'rosewood'. [/quote] Many thanks!
  10. Hi all, I'm looking at buying a bass which is described as having a Palisander fingerboard!! Although in the picture it looks more maple in colour than rosewood, info on Google suggests that it is indeed a form of Rosewood. Has anyone any more info on this please? Ta J
