03.22.12 | I own a Lakland Skyline 55-02 and I love it to death. In all fairness, though, I've only owned two basses. The other was a Fender Deluxe Active P-Bass which was a piece of shit. I've also played a Gibson Thunderbird, which was rather underwhelming. |
BarkHammer
03.22.12 | Lakland, they've basically got the quality that Fender used to have. I used to have a Fender P Bass and when I tried to slap the G string it caused the bridge for that string to collapse. |
Palimpsest
03.22.12 | Haha, I've never heard of that particular glitch before. The biggest problem with my Fender P was that the sound wouldn't balance. The low E was way too quiet and undefined. I tried adjusting the string gauges/setup and it didn't help, so it was a pickup issue. For quality, you've pretty much got to go to smaller companies like Lakland. With the big guys like Fender and Gibson, the quality just spirals out of control as they get bigger and bigger. |

03.22.12 | I think it depends on the make really. I love the Warwick Basses, I've had four and none of them ever put a foot wrong, only problem is, is they're fucking expensive haha. |

I have this guitar. Are the basses really that good? To answer the topic, I had a 5-string ESP that sounded amazing. Haven't really played too many though. |
