FS only - Lakland 44-02 Deluxe Fretless 4

[pfschim]

I have - for sale only - a very clean and beautiful Lakland 44-02 Deluxe fretless in 3 Tone Sunburst finish over a truly dazzling quilted maple top. The neck is half sawn rock maple with a lined ebony fretboard.

The pups are Barts, and I believe that the 3 band active/passive electronics package is also Bartolini made.

I am the second owner, so this bass has been gigged, but it has also been very well taken care of. It's in top shape with no cosmetic, mechanical/structural or electrical issues. It is currently strung with TI Jazz Rounds and sounds great. The Bass will come with a Lakland (Levy's) gig bag.

Why am I selling it ? - I am moving to Europe for 2 years and am significantly reducing the number of basses I own.

Here's the sale details:

Price is $750 firm (lowball replies will not be responded to)
Buyer pays shipping from zip code 94550. It's SF Bay Area, so I would be happy to do a local sale.
Sale will be via Postal Money Order, I don't use PayPal.

let me know if you are interested. This bass will also go up on Bay Area CL this week.

Hey pf! Man, that's a great price on a beautiful bass. I wish I played fretless--someone should snap this up! Good luck with the move!

[pfschim]

thanks brother, I'm looking forward to the relocation, just not the process of clearing 20 years of stuff out of my house.

The 44-02 should be a pretty easy sale at this price, either here or locally on CL.

Aw damn. I am saving for a 44-02 deluxe but I am no where near having enough, even for this one. Such a great deal.

Tampabass - the email addy you sent me came back with some sort of "mailbox full" type response when I tried to reply to your note to me.

[Tampabass]

Not sure what's up with my TB inbox, as it's not full. But if you don't mind just reply to my email - jphilipboothATgmailDOTcom.

weight?

[pfschim]

I don't have the actual weight because I do not have a scale in the house, but the Lakland feels about the same as my Lull M4V which is just a tad under 9lbs.

[bamabass]

what a beauty...I have the 5 string version of this and it KILLS!!!!! BUMP!

[basspraiser]

If this were a 55-02...I'd be a PMin' - that quilting is sweet! for $750??? what a deal....

these sound REALLY nice! I think the LH3 has a "mwah factor" built in!!!

[pfschim]

thanks for the encouragement guys. there are a few folks expressing interest, so hopefully this bass will find a new home soon.

I may decide to go back to a trade option - I was recently looking for trades for a fretless Fender Jazz and had some interest and decent offers.

I'll just keep posting this baby up for consideration.
