Title says it all - pics etc. later.

Meanwhile here's the original thread when I first got it, the first one in the UK: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/34287-lakland-skyline-decade"]http://basschat.co.u...-skyline-decade[/url] - the kitchen is not included in the sale.

Later .....

So, it's a November 2008 Lakland Skyline Decade passive with single-coil Chisonic pickups, machined in Indonesia with electronics and set up done in Chicago. Body is mahogany with a translucent burgundy finish, black pickguard, and black headstock.

The bass it at present wearing Pyramid Gold Flats although I've just realised the pictures show TI Jazz Flats.

The VVT control knobs are replacements for the original Jazz bass style knobs which I have if you prefer them.

The bass has Schaller strap locks fitted, I can probably find the original strap buttons.

You can hear Lakland's soundfiles of the Decade with single-coil Chisonics here: [url="http://www.lakland.com/ac_decade.htm"]http://www.lakland.com/ac_decade.htm[/url]

Here's John Pirruccello, CEO of Lakland, with this very bass before it was shipped to me direct from Lakland.



... and it comes in a Lakland gigbag (but no hard case):











I'm looking for cash and not a trade as I already have plans.

I'd much prefer a collection from Brighton or a meet somewhere in the south-east in association with the M25 and its excellent service areas. However a courier at the buyers expense might be arranged.

why are you selling it?

Gareth, he's had it 5 years. You of all people should know how unnatural it is for ANYBODY on here to have a bass for 5 years

I have a five basses rule and I have six basses at present and I also need a Coronado for a particular venture so something has to give.

I am going to regret it I expect.

Thank you so much for your support for my unnatural activities.

Right, I'm having doubts about selling this already.

ON HOLD until after tomorrow's rehearsal.
