Lakland Daryl Jones 5 - price reduced, more photos £950 Hailsham, East Sussex

[Graham]

Edit: price reduced to £850

 

This bass has done me very well for a number of years and I don't especially want to part with it, but:

 

A) I'm loving my new Stingray

 

B) what I really need is a private ADHD assessment for my youngest child

 

It's a really good passive five string jazz, pickups are in the 70s position, the 35" scale gives an excellent low B and the neck is extremely comfortable

 

For me, this has the best bridge pickup I've come across on a jazz bass - articulate and clear without being thin and nasally

 

It's not too heavy either, I used it for 2 hour plus gigs without too much trouble, the Stingray is noticeably heavier. It comes in around 4.2Kg

 

No trades for obvious reasons collection/meet up in the Hailsham/Eastbourne or Crowborough areas of Sussex preferrred, but can look into shipping options if necessary. Can deliver within 50 miles of BN27 for petrol cost

 

Let me know if you want photos from any other angles

Thanks, it really is a very good bass - I just need something else more in this climate

To update with a couple of questions I've had on PM, it's one of the Indonesian made Skylines and having weighed it this morning it comes in around 4.2Kg

Played one of these in GuitarGuitar Camden and it was fantastic. GLWTS.

I played DJ5s a few times and if you like the jazz sound and feel this is an absolute deal. The neck is rock solid with graphite bars in them.

The last Bass Player to be a part of PRINCE P.G. & 3eyegirl used to play a bass like this one ( you tube video) Bassida aka Funkhouser plays Huset in Aalborg, Denmark (2008)

the same channel used to have other vids of Bass Ida & the bass
