Best ss there is

If proper balance, powerful tone, easy set-up maintenance, light weight, you need a ss now (age issues), and perfect ergonomics matter to you get one. There is no better ss bass IMO, in fact get two so you can have one w/ rounds and one w/ flats.

Such a phenomenal sounding bass. Coming from a Fender player series J-bass, this lightweight, Lakland hollowbody makes the Fender sound like a toy. Installing some Labella tapewounds, front pickup only and with the tone rolled down gives a sweet upright sound. This bass is beautifully made and came out of the box with a perfect setup. No adjustment required. (Thanks to Lakland, read more Sweetwater or both) The only con to this bass is the tone control is not set as flush against the body as the pickup controls are. (There's a visible gap where you can partially see the pot shaft.) But that's just quibbling....All in all, I'm a Lakland fan for life.

Nice Bass that Needed Tweaking

Overall I'm pleased with this Lakland Hollowbody. Short scale is very comfortable to play. Light weight makes gigs that much easier. I don't think you sacrifice anything with the 30" scale. Mine did need some tweaking upon arrival. The pickups both had too much clearance in their bezel and vibrated while playing. Sometimes that vibration sounded all right but overall read more I want to control that. So I placed foam beneath each pickup in order to reduce the play. Even then it was annoying at times so I wedged a thin piece of plastic between the pickup and the bezel to eliminate the play. That solved the problem. My blues band mates really like the sound of this bass.

Short Scale Vintage Vibe

I've owned this bass for a couple of years now and it's one of my favorite basses. I usually have a few basses on hand in the studio, to give me tonal options to fit the track. This little beauty is perfect when you are looking for that shot scale, vintage sound. String it up with some flatwound strings and you get that short scale, hollowbody plunk made famous on so many recordings. read more It's not as muddy sounding as most of the basses in this class, but it's got definition and character. Not as punchy as something like a Fender Mustang, but more clarity than a Hofner. The neck is thin at the nut, perfect people who prefer a Jazz neck over a Precision neck. Intonation is impeccable.
