Thanks! And are these supposed to be provided with the bass? Kind of a pain in the @)# if not...

Hmm. I'm not sure. When I bought my new Skyline(about 10 years ago), I did not get one. Come to think of it, I think Fenders are the only basses with the tool included that I've bought new. That includes a Sadowsky Metro, a Roscoe, an MTD, and 3 Music Man Stingrays. They should be included, but hex/Allen wrenches aren't too hard to come by at least.

They're the US ultralites. I like 'em.

I posted these pics of my (new to me) 2011 US 44-51M in another thread I started regarding a Lull P/Lakland P style comparison. Sorry for the blatant over-posting. I made the trade for this beauty yesterday. I've owned many basses. Hands down the best passive I've ever had. Fit, finish, play-ability. Sound and vision bliss.

Awesome!!! Congrats on a sweet instrument.

As for "overposting"...When it comes to Lakies...there is no such thing!

Beautiful! ...and familiar? I think I may have owned this one a little while ago - if so, the neck is indeed superb. Congrats!

I believe I am also a former owner. As Bart says, it's a great bass!

I had an idea she'd been around the block a few times. I thank you all for taking such good care of her. I really like the vintage frets on this neck and the Fralins now installed make for a perfect old school meets modern boutique quality, tone and vibe. I really believe she's found a permanent home. My Lull M4V had a wonderful neck but not this nice.

Well if that is the one that TomP and I both owned, I know we both babied her. Glad she's found a good home, enjoy!

Glad to hear it! Traded with Bart for his single coil version. I miss your bass. Great neck an contours!
