Product Description
The Skyline 55-01 Electric Bass Guitar retains all the key features that have made Lakland the choice of professionals: ash body, flat-sawn maple neck with graphite reinforcement bars, Bartolini MK1 split-coil soapbar pickups, and 3-band buffered active preamp. Controls include cut/boost bass, mid, and treble; a panning-style pickup blend; and master volume (with pull-out switching to bypass EQ). 35" scale. Lakland Skyline luthiers now do their fret work using Plek technology to assure optimum playability. Plek is a CAD/CAM machine with scanning capability. It was developed to perform high-speed, highly accurate fret dressing, nut and bridge slotting and shaping, and engraving work. When used by an experienced luthier, the Plek machine produces necks with fretwork and action that equal the very best handwork and does it consistently.

This review is from: Lakland Skyline Series L5501LEMTB 5-Strings Bass Guitar, Translucent Blue (Electronics)
The US Made Lakland basses hover at just over two grand and change. The Skyline series is considerably more affordable while still delivering much of the mojo of their American made brethren. I bought my 55-01 back in 2006 and I have played it extensively. I can honestly say that it is a great bass particularly when the price is considered. The Skyline 55-01 is one of those rare instruments that really does not need any modifications to sound great; it sounds great and most of all plays great right out of the box. If you need made in the USA stamped on the instrument this may not be for you, but you are simply looking for a killer bass that will not set you back on your mortgage payments, this is the bass for you.
