Lakland USA 2002 Joe Osborn 4-string- Candy Apple Red, Fralins + tweed case: £1700 *ON HOLD* - *SOLD* £1700 Liverpool

[Etienne]

I bought this lovely instrument here on BC from Jamie (AKA jay-syncro) back in mid-February this year, with the intention of using it as a touring replacement for my Fender Jazz. However, after living with it for a good while, I find that I still prefer the Fender overall, and so I’d rather move this on and find it a home where it will be used and appreciated.

 

As you can see, it’s clearly no case queen, and has been gigged a lot over the last 23 years (I haven’t added any additional marks of my own though!). However, it is a lovely player, and has beautiful classic Jazz tone for days from the Lindy Fralin pickups that were fitted as standard for this era and model of Lakland bass.

 

Since owning it, I have had a set-up and light fret dress done by Phill Orme of Doghouse Guitar Repairs, restrung it with brand-new D’addario Chromes ECB-82 flats, and I’ve had the previously crackly pots cleaned and serviced. It plays beautifully.

 

I renewed the Dunlop Dual straplock buttons with a fresh new set, and will include an as-new premium black suede strap fitted with corresponding Dunlop straplocks in the sale.

 

Also included is a classic tweed Fender hard case in very good condition… a nice upgrade on the case I bought it with, and perfect for shipping in if required.

 

The weight of this is just over 4.4KG, or 9.7lbs.

 

I’m looking for a very reasonable £1700 for this… no offers or trades please!

 

EDIT 29/07/25: *NOW SOLD*

 

As always, if you're interested and need any additional info, please just message me.

 

Thanks for looking!
