FT: TWO Lakland Skylines - 44-60 Custom Sunburst and 44-64 Black n' Maple

Hey guys, been a while.. but I'm here with a possible trade..

These two are my babies, I bought them both new, actually ordered the 44-64 new from the factory. Both were purchased about a year ago, maybe a little more.

I'm interested in possibly trading BOTH for a single bass. I'm interested in US Laklands (most likely a JO4), but would also consider Sadowsky, or other high end bassea.

I really don't know exactly what I'm looking for here, so make me offers! I do love both of these basses quite a bit, so it would have to be the right bass for me to give them up. I will also consider trading a bass individually if the right offer comes up. I may even be interested In a skyline JO4 with a rosewood fingerboard.

First up, Skyline 44-60 Custom (Joe Osborn) - Sunburst, maple neck, pearl inlays. The bass plays great, fast neck, extremely low action, and sounds fantastic. In like new shape. Comes with the original mint pickguard, a black pickguard, and a tortoise pickguard. This thing weighs in at around 8.5 pounds!

Second, Skyline 44-64 (Bob Glaub) in good 'ol black and maple. Plays great, very solid, an incredible P-bass. This thing has tone for days. Also in like new condition. This one is bit heavier, at a little over 10 pounds.

Anyway, enough words, here are some pictures

Any US JO's out there?

I also forgot to mention both basses come with hard shell cases

Any chance you would swap the necks and sell the JO for cash?

Wow!!! a two-fer and NO ONE responding??????

If I played 4 bangers and had a US JO4 we MIGHT have been talking.....I especially like the black and tan !

Why does it have a a white pick guard in one picture but a black one in the rest?

Never thought of doing that, but I think I'll have to keep them as is. As for selling, I'm not sure I'm up to sell them yet, I'm hoping to see if some trades come up.

Thanks, I was hoping maybe someone would be interested in the 2 for 1!

And the picture was just taken with the alternate pickguard.
