Second one from the top!
this is a Lakland Owners Group Limited Edition bass. I don't know if you
know anything about these so I'll give you a quick overview.
here's the main things:
this is the bass that was co-created with the enthusiasts of Lakland Owners Group community.There were (and will be) only 30 such basses made, each with a L.O.G. serial number and a certificate signed by President of Lakland.
The bass has a two-piece ash body in butterscoth. The color is semi-transparent so you can see some wood pattern, mostly on the back. 3-ply black-white-black pickguard that outlines the bass' shapes
beautifully.
The LOG LE basses offered two kinds of opions that you could choose. Fretboard - mine has rosewood with abalone blocks and binding over a birdseye neck (which I have never seen on a Lakland before), and a choice of 3 pickups. Mine has the Lakland vintage P: Neodimum magnet, Alnico pole pieces. This makes it
sound wery open, bright and modern, but when you roll off the tone and volume, you get that old-style thumpy P.
The pre-owner addressed Carl Pedigo who was head luthier of Lakland for over a decade and is a great man. He installed a bridge J of his own design. I don't know the tech but Carl designed it especially for this pickup combo. He also did a VT/VT knob layout for me (like on the 1960 jazz bass), thus making a very versatile passive bass. I like the finish of the neck on US basses, it feels like the bass has
been played for years and years. So Carl did this on this bass, and also added a bone nut like on US basses.
So this is as close to US basses as it may get, and also with handwork of one of the main Lakland masters.
It is in great shape, the only thing is that the pickguard gathers scratches very easily, but this is the material they used.
USED IN GOOD CONDITION.
SHOWS LIGHT WEAR FROM USE BUT NO SCRATCHES
GIGBAG INCLUDED
VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE AN UN USED LIMITED EDITION GUITAR.
IF YOU REQUIRE MORE DETAILED PHOTO'S OR PRICE INFORMATIONS PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS.
