Oof!

It looks like even the neck has some really nice quartersawn figuring by the look of the headstock!

He gets the rock star treatment

Did anyone see the unique USA 55-OS in the Lakland flyer and on their Available Now section on their website? It's a USA natural 55-OS with the electronic guts of a 55-94. Looks cool......to me at least.

I did see it.
Unique for sure
I'm not an OS fan...

I was just looking at it. Pretty cool.

If only I had $4400 laying around..

I thought it looked pretty cool. I've thought about the Skyline OS a few times but they're always so heavy (at least the ones I've seen with their actual weight advertised). This one actually is pretty light.

And sold already!

I like the look of the clear satin. Makes it look natural.
I just did the same thing on a body for a build JJ/Jedibass is doing for me. But I went with a matte finish.

Like my good friend Basspraiser, I am NOT a fan of the OS shape

My USA 55-AJ was delivered today! Perfect setup and the most amazing, thin neck that's smooth as silk. The new Lakland gig bag is super nice too. I'll post up some shots tomorrow!!

Same here. A local shop to me is a Lakland dealer and they had a 55-OS in stock a while back. I couldn't believe how heavy it was and I can usually tolerate heavier basses but I was surprised when I tried to remove it from the wall hanger. This thing had to have been in the 11.5 to 12 lbs range.

I know the OS shape isn't everyone's cup of tea but I dig it but also really like the flagship -94/-02 body shape as well.

In case anyone is looking, not a bad price for a US Lakland

You're not kidding that's good price. There is so much figuring in that bass - quilt, birds eye, and flame.

Tempting
But I can't... Really.... Really

Here it is…home at last! Truly a killer bass right out of the box!! Neck is definitely slimmer than my other 55-AJ. Newer knobs as well. Killer Duo

Whoa, that's stunning! Congrats! The gloss black with all maple birds eye neck is such a classic look and the duo look great together.

 

[MaxSpinrun]

Are pups and pre the same in each?

 

[Ric Vice]

Beautiful necks. Something Lakland excels at.
