Lakland

collapse expand iconDescription

The engineers at Lakland labored over the design of this the Skyline 55-60 to combine '60s technology (the slim neck and narrow nut, the offset-body balancing, and concentric control knobs) and applied today's leading-edge technology (graphite reinforcement, enhanced neck joint, passive pickups by Lakland) to create a contemporary classic.

35 inches
That's the scale length of the 55-60 and the reason all Lakland 5's sound so good, so low! When you talk about clarity, tautness and tone in regards to the low B, you're talking about our passion!

Skyline Series
The Skyline 44-60/55-60 is manufactured to the same specifications as Lakland's US-made 44-60/55-60 bass and outfitted with the same passively delicious Lakland J-style pickups. The Lakland pickups replicate vintage bass tones, and players love the comfy taper of the 44-60/55-60 neck.

    Look, this is a Lakland. Period. The 55-60 is my jam though. I love the straight J Bass style and playability. The action is perfect and fast. Right out of the box. It was set up in Chicago by the experts. The neck is very reminiscent of the 60's J Bass and string spacing is right on for quick flows up and down the neck.
