FS: Lakland Skyline 44-64 (Bob Glaub) ***Excelllent Condition!!***

whirledpeas · #1 07-31-2011, 09:21 AM

Trying to further thin the herd. Up now is my killer Skyline Glaub in near-new condition. I literally cannot find a single ding on this bass. Only some very light swirling / scratches that I cannot capture in a photo. Bass has never left my house since I've owned it.

Three tone sunburst shows off some sweet wood grain; nice piece of ash here! The lighting for my photos really don't do this one justice. She's much prettier in person.

More high res pics here,

I bought this one from cbass17; he said it came directly from Lakland with the upgraded tort guard, and that John Pirrucello put his "special sauce" on this one for him.

It light (~8.2 lbs) and plays like butter with low action! Fit and finish are fantastic, killer neck!!

1.75 inch nut width
thin profile, flat radius makes this one play itself!
2007 crafted in Korea; pre-PLEK = hand-dressed
Lakland/Hanson Neopunch pups - very punchy and articulate.

For a quick sale I'm offering this one to a TBer for $795 + actual shipping/insurance from 29201. Paypal preferred.

Only trade I'm really looking for is a nice composite 5-banger (+ cash on my end obviously).

Please email for quicker response. Thanks!

... added for your consideration.

Shoot me an email if you want to work something out. I really hate parting with this one, but need to find her a good home!

Bump for a killer P bass ... looks, plays, balances, and sounds great!! My favorite color combo on a P bass.

The photo above is not in the best lighting. The closeups show off the grain a bit better, but still don't do the color justice.

Not a ding on this one, and she's yours for less than $800!

^^Ya know, I almost didn't include that quote, lol.

Very cool bass nonetheless,

whirledpeas · #7 08-01-2011, 03:13 PM

Thanks. She should make someone quite happy. She's the first P bass I really clicked with. Unfortunately I need to move her to try some other things.

very nice... I dig p basses.. Never had a Lakland.. This is a beauty.. need a day to think about it

bluesdragon · #10 08-02-2011, 09:26 PM

case included?

whirledpeas · #11 08-03-2011, 05:58 AM

No case, but I'd be willing to buy one for a little extra.

Would also ship with the neck off if buyer preferred.

sj_bass · #12 08-03-2011, 10:02 AM

Would you be interested in a black 55-01 with a rosewood neck in trade?

whirledpeas · #13 08-03-2011, 10:10 AM

^^Appreciate the offer, but I gotta pass.

I'd prefer a straight sale, but would also consider trading towards a nice composite neck 5-string like a Modulus Q5, Zon Sonus, etc.
