FS: Lakland USA 55-94 Black
This is the best bass I have. I just don't play 5 string anymore. When I bought it about three years ago I emailed Lakland and Dan Lakin replied saying the color was rare.
The bass body is black, slightly transparent--you can see some wood grain through the black finish. The condition is very good but with some small nicks and dings on the body front and back, mostly on the bottom edge, near the knobs, and where the right wrist rests on the front contour. Not noticeable from a few feet away, typical of a bass that has been played for 15 years. I can add some close up pictures, taken with a better camera, in a few days.
The quartersawn maple neck, curly maple fretboard and frets are very good, very well cared for. The neck feels hand crafted--and it may be. As far as I know, this bass is all original. Made in 1998.
Flatwound strings, Bartolini pickups. Weight is 9.15 lbs.
The hardshell case is in very good condition. No tears in the tolex. I think it is the original case but I can’t be sure.
