New (old) bass day! The Lakland returns!

[Sibob]

Well, didn’t actually think it would happen, but with a little patience….my old Lakland 55-01 is back with me.

I sold it getting on for 2 years ago, and regretted it ever since! Luckily I was still in contact with the person I sold it to, and after a little wrangling (who could blame him, it’s a great bass), finally the sale back to me happened.

 

Its almost exactly as it was when I sold it, I think the ‘Vintage Cream’ finish has yellowed mildly, but could just be the lights here at the services on the way to my gig haha.

 

Still had the US Bartolini pickups and preamp I put in it thankfully, although currently strung with some horrible roundwounds.
Will get it setup ASAP with some La Bella Ltd edition White Nylons.

 

Some nicer pictures soon when it’s all setup and cleaned a little!
