Lakland Skyline 55-02 Deluxe 5 NAT

This classy bass is the Lakland Skyline 55-02 Deluxe Natural Gloss. This five-string model has an ash body with a spalted maple top for increased eye-catching potential, plus a roasted maple neck and fretboard lined with twenty-two nickel-silver frets that have been precision-finished with a PLEK machine. Set up by W-Distribution in Germany, the 55-02 Deluxe is especially stable and feels and plays like a dream. Widely Adaptable Sound The active LH3 preamp that Lakland has built in sets you up with five pots - including 3-band tone controls - so you can broadly vary the sound shaped by the two pickups, where the Lakland LH55 Dual Coil at the neck is known for delivering clean sound with extra lows piled on top, while the Lakland LH55 Quad Coil Soapbar at the bridge yields tight, deeply defined and extra-punchy tone. Add it all up and you get a pro-level model that can effortlessly take on any style.
