Oh and I don't think I ever got officialy into the lakland owners club! Haha

Can someone identify these pickups for me? I had them in a box ever since I changed to joe barden pickups. It's from a 2007 lakland skyline joe Osborn. It was right around the time they were changing to there own pickups.

Those look like stock Lakland pups.
Not much really... $45-$75... here's a few postings from the classifieds:How much do you guys think they are worth used? They've been in a box for years
I just sold a 5 string set a month ago for $60How much do you guys think they are worth used? They've been in a box for years
So I picked this 55-01 up earlier this year. It's my first lakland and boy am I happy with this bass. It's so comfortable it's like relaxing on your favorite couch. Even with the stock electronics I get a nice full and deep tone that has a ton of clarity. This bass has actually made a turning point in my playing and in my musical life.
I must admit though that I got his off of Craigslist for a cool $600 in brand new condition so that made it extra sweet.
I would have posted this earlier but wasn't sure how these group things work.

I think Sweetwater made a mistake here. View attachment 724736
Proof that people aren't perfect.
I'd want to be corrected if I had made a mistake that could cost someone upwards of $500
Got my 55-64 body back from my tech guy. He routed the opening for the Jazz pup. Now to send it off to be refinished.
I just picked up a black 55-60...I notice that there doesn't seem to be very many black Skyline XX-60's or XX-64's out there even though it's shown as a stock color for both models. Are these really not so common?Black
