Sign in to disble this ad
I have a Near Mint, Blue 55-94 Standard. It has 2 pickguards- white and a Jeannie's clear. Bartolini electronics, Birdseye board. I got rid of the Lakland case, it was in rough shape. It now resides in a Mono Case M-80 bag, which is amazing.
Now, why would I be thinking about moving the BADDEST bass I've ever owned? Well here's the scoop. I'd trade for TWO basses of combined similar value. That's right.... your 2 basses for my 55-94.
For a 6'2" person, I don't have the biggest hands. The 35" scale wears me out a little during 4 sets.
I want another American Standard 4 String Jazz Bass. Mid nineties and newer. Prefer non- Black (already have one). Ash bodies and Maple necks preferred, but not mandatory.
I also want another 5 string. 34" or 35 " scale. Interesting makers will include EBMM, MTD KZ, Lakland Skyline, Human base, etc. No cheap stuff please. I figure my Lakland is worth around $1800 so no lowball offers. I'll be more than happy to hold onto it if I don't get the right offer. Will post pics later tonight. Thanks.
**** Pics of me playing the 55-94 up now. I'll get batteries for my camera and take close ups tomorrow. THANKS!!!

I'm looking for two basses of similar value that would be equal to the Lakland's. |

I only have so many to get rid of, and I am sure that such an awesome bass MUST stay in our TB family! This bass is a piece of Lakland History, come on guys, let's keep it here! |

Ash or alder?

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Lexington, KY | | | I really appreciate all the offers and cool correspondence with the TB faithful. I've decided to hold onto the Lakland for a while. Didn't really get the offer I was hoping for and was also able to make a move on a 4 string that will suit my needs. Plus- the wife was not happy with the idea of moving the 55-94- it's her favorite bass I've owned. Peace, Thanks and Happy Holidays All!! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
