FS: Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub w/ DS

**Freddels** · #1 10-20-2009, 09:24 PM

For Sale: Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub with Dark Star. The weight is about 8.5 lbs on the trusty bathroom scale (I make no claims of it's accuracy). This bass is incredible sounding. Plays great. Tax man came with a bigger than expected bill so I've got to sell a few things.

Comes with the white Lakland Hardshell case.

$XXX shipped/insured to the lower 48.

Paypal preferred.

This bass kills... if I had the scratch it would be mine again.... the neck is narrowish too!

Holy crap! This is the exact bass I've been looking for! Holy crap!

I was the original owner of this bass (I think) and it is absolutely amazing. The neck is a little closer to a jazz width than what is typical for a Lakland Glaub.

Bump for a bass with an option you can't get anymore.

You'd think a bass this cool could find a more permanent home! Poor girl...

What is the neck width at the nut ?

Johnny Alien · #9 10-21-2009, 06:48 AM

If I remember correctly it's 1.6"

I have the exact same bass. Can't say enough good things about it. Fred is a great guy and whomever ends up with this bass will be happy I'm sure.

But in a GOOD way.... no previous owners have anything but good things to say about this one. I've had other US built Laklands that used Dark Stars and this Skyline BG was my personal favorite.

If only I were made of money...

When I sold it, it was essentially new. The neck was narrower than a standard Precision and I like a wide neck. It was NOT custom ordered with that neck more of an anomaly really. That aside it was an absolutely killer sounding bass. Being a Lakland endorser I order my stuff straight from them and at the time the Darkstar and the the tort guard were not normal options for the Glaub. If it had a full 1.75" neck I would never have gotten rid of it.

And unless you do it yourself you will never be able to get a DarkStared Skyline again.
