FS: Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub Precision 44-64

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys and gals. I just bought this Bob Glaud P bass a little over a week ago. Seen here:

FS/FT: Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub / BG / 44-64

Since then, well, ahem, I went on a little spending spree.

This is truly a phenomenal bass with very cool, fat vintage tones. The Lindy Fralin pickups rock in this rig.

Specs as I know them:

- 1.75" at the nut
- 9.8 lbs. on the scale

The previous owner had it strung BEAD and modified the nut. I just had the nut replaced and it is strung standard with brand new D'addario XL's in .45-.105's. Like mentioned in the previous add, there is a small ding on the back of the neck at about the 5th fret. I tried to capture it in pics but it is hard to see and not even noticeable when playing.

The bass will be shipped in a well padded Zon gig bag and also comes with the stock white pickguard. This was my first Lakland and I now know what everyone means when they rave about them. Truly a great playing and sounding P bass.

It has what I'd consider normal wear and tear for a 2005 bass. I also agree with the PO's assessment of an 8/10. Just a solid P bass that sound great mixing it up. The action is a tad high and it probably could use a good setup if you want lower action, which it is capable of easily.

I'm asking $675 shipped to the US. Paypal is preferred. No trades please.....don't want to be tempted! I'm not looking to get rich, just pass on the deal I got to someone else.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions and I'll do my best to answer. Thanks.

No fret buzz that I can tell. I'll give it a good run again tomorrow though. Nut job looks good to me but I'm definitely not an expert.

Hey now, this used to be mine. Its a great player and sounds awesome. No fret buzz on this one. I just had the action set a bit higher than normal for the BEAD set up. A good set up and this is a hell of a bass and a killer deal! Buy now!
