Overview

'60s style with modern tech and a maple fretboard.

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.
