Lakland 5501 Skyline Series 5 String Bass 3 Tone Sunburst, Maple Fingerboard The Lakland 55-01 Skyline 5-string bass is way off the deep end! Just like the 44-01, dual Bartolini MK-1 split-coil soapbars are coupled with the MK-1 preamp. The 44’s and 55’s have that deep Lakland cutaway on the high register side of the neck that allows easy access to ALL 22 frets up the neck for throwing licks on top of your grooves. And Lakland has said it before: 35-inch scale necks make for killer low B’s! That is why the low tones on Skyline 5-string basses boom with piano-like clarity! Case not included. Nut Width: 1.8″ Nut Type: Plastic Fret Size: .041/.085″ Width at Final Fret: 3.3″ 1st Fret Neck Depth: .81″ 12th Fret Neck Depth: .92″ Fingerboard Radius: 10-13″ (Compund) Scale Length: 35″ Frets: 22 Bridge String Spacing: .75″ Neck Wood: Flat-Sawn Rock Maple with Graphite Reinforcement Bars Body wood(s): Ash Fingerboard: Maple with Dots or Rosewood with Dots Tuners: Hipshot Tapered Shaft (Optional Hipshot D-Tuner) Truss Rod: Access Neck Heel: 5/32″ Hex Pickguard: Optional Controls: Cut and Boost: Bass, Midrange, Treble, Panning-style Pickup Blend Control, Master Volume (pull for preamp bypass) Bridge: Lakland Dual Access (through body or through bridge) Lakland basses all feature a 2 year, non-transferrable warranty.
