Corvette $$ 5 And Lakland 55-01 Fretless?

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone own or previously own both Corvette 5-string $$ and a Lakland Skyline 55-01 Fretless (where but on TB could one hope to get an answer!!).

How would compare/contrast? Do you think they complement each other well as unique, different weapons in the arsenal, so to speak?

I just tried a Lakland 55-01 fretless in search of a fretless electric and I must say I was pretty impressed with the sound and feel (and the used price). Would more than likely want to get flats on it as well.

Appreciate any thoughts!

Curious too. Are both of these 35" scale?

I know the Corvette is 34". I believe the 55-01 is 35, though. The B sounded awesome on the store unit.
