About Lakland 5-String Basses:
All bass players know it – there’s just not enough bottom in the key of D on a 4 string bass. The lower octave in D (and C) made possible by the low B string can mean the difference between working a deep groove and balancing on a high wire. That’s why the 5 string bass was invented. And nobody has successfully explored the possibilities of the 5 string like Lakland.
Lakland 5-string basses feature a B-string that is tight, well defined and feels like a natural extension of the instrument – accomplished by combining a 35″ scale with the solid anchoring of the string through the body design. The necks on Lakland’s 55 series basses are slightly narrower than other 5-strings, but still maintain a standard “J” string spacing, making them as accessible as they are tonally sound.
All Lakland 5-strings are 35″ scale . . . . Graphite reinforcement bars, quarter-sawn Maple neck blanks and Lakland’s impeccable fret installation make this the 5-string neck to beat for comfort, stability and tonal consistency across all 5 strings.
About the Skyline Series 55-02:
Seen on the world’s largest stages, the 55-02 has an active punch that will drive your sound clearly through any mix, with ‘best in class’ tonality for a versatile and refined fit for any playing situation.
Features 35″ scale neck for better B string tone and tight, deep bottom
Features Lakland hand-wound LH3 pickups and onboard preamp
The LH3 pickups (wound in our shop in Chicago) and onboard preamp are the same components you’ll find in our legendary USA Series 55-94. (powered by a single 9-volt battery that can be changed by removing a simple snap-on battery cover – no screws to lose!) Internal dip switches let you select the midrange boost/cut frequency.
The neck is the same 35” scale, profile and spec as our USA series 55-94 which has won over legions of professionals because of its great feel, string spacing and most importantly, a B string with tight punchy clarity that lives with the other 4 strings in perfect harmony.
Deluxe Model – The 55-02 Deluxe adds a Quilted Maple veneer natural finish top.
