    Hi everyone...looking for some help to answer a simple question...

    I own a 55-01 Lakland Skyline deluxe...it has a pull volume know which kicks in the passive...when the passive is on, the p/u blend knob still works, but the eq knobs don't do anything. Is this normal? They work in active mode.

    Thanks!

    Off topic...

    How does your 55-01 balance? Is it headstock heavy at all?

    Thanks,
    LR

    I dunno about Steve's, but my 55-01 had excellent balance.

    its very well balanced, probably because the body is a bit of a heavy beast as well! LOL however, best bass I've ever owned...if I buy another, it will be another Lakland for sure
