Well, one of three anyway, but the only one in this spec and this color!
Lakland 55 Series loaded with Chi-Sonic Single coils. Three were built, two with Chi's, one with Jazz pups under Chi covers.
This one has an alder body, stunningly bound and blocked neck, 60's pickup spacing; and is passive with standard v/v/t control layout.
She's super light at 8.5 lbs.
The shoreline gold paint is immaculately applied. There is one *super small* nick in the finish on the headstock, she's super fine aside from that.
The neck has a great feeling satin finish and vintage tint and is made of beautifully grained quarter-sawn maple It is a tad deeper than the Skyline's I've had, and has more headstock mass. This all translates into a great feeling neck, and more beef and sustain, IMO.
She's strung with new Dunlop nickle plated steels, and ahs a big, rich organic voice.
Much as I love this bass, I'm happier with my Sadoswky, Alleva and Valenti.
I'll be glad to keep playing her til she sells, fine as she is, but we're not long term dance partners.
Comes with Lakland USA's very nice creme and black, plush lined hard shell case, papers and tools.
$2300 shipped and insured.

Not really open to trades unless you have a Sadwosky MV5 Jazz; ash/maple single coil kinda thing.
