Nice Lakie, but i'll admit the blonde kinda overshadows it. Yikes.

I knew when posting it that the blonde would get more love than my redhead :D

Did the gig this past Sat night with the messed up bass . . . but it turned out OK! I spent Sat afternoon doing a Carl Pedigo (videos) setup on it, and did a final tuning and got it to within a few cents of each other just with "open" and the "harmonic" on the 12th . . . it wouldn't give a reading with both in the green if I pushed down - no matter how many times I went back and forth. When I got to the gig, I re-tuned using my rack tuner and get the tuner even tighter . . . that said, I had some very nice comments about my playing and the sound of the Lakland . . . it was a good night! I'm a happy camper! That 55-60 is a dream to play . . .

Loving the 44-02 I got, but one thing thats killing me is coming from a fatter neck to the thinner neck of the 44-02 is killing my left hand thumb down in to my arm, trying my damnest to not put pressure on it but damn!

You must have really had a thick neck before. What I like about the Lakland necks is they aren't so dang skinny like so many modern builders seem to want to do. They leave enough thickness there to be comfortable without being fat.

Ahh, ok. It also seems like the contours extend a little deeper, but that could just be the photo.

Im not 100% sure but yes i have a feeling the body is slightly different. I used to have a 55-02 before this 55-69. The 69 appears slightly bigger to me but could be an illusion. The 69 also feels more contoured to sit on my body better than my 02 but could be just skyline vs usa model difference. They both just as lightweight though
