If you value craftsmanship as much as you do tone, searching for a Lakland bass guitar is a smart move. In fact, those two things usually go hand-in-hand, and spending one minute with a Lakland will certainly highlight that. These are basses that feel amazing to hold and play, and the sound they put out is simply legendary. Dating back to 1994, they may not be the most historic basses around, but don't let that fool you: they're definitely among the finest.

All it really takes to understand the quality of a Lakland bass is to browse the roster of artists who play them onstage. Take, for example, Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath, Jason Scheff of Chicago and Adam Clayton of U2 - these bassists represent the caliber of musicians trusting their sound to Lakland, which is naturally a reflection of the instruments themselves.

One of Lakland's biggest claims to fame is their wide range of 5-string basses, so if you like the versatility of an extended-range instrument, you're in the right place. A perfect way to get your foot in the door, so to speak, is the Lakland Skyline 55-01 Bass Guitar. This ash-bodied beauty comes loaded with Bartolini MK1 split-coil soapbar pickups, channeling their output through a 3-band buffered active preamp for powerful bass tone that can handle any genre.

Fancy yourself a jazz man, or just looking for the rich resonance of a hollow bass? There's a perfect Lakland for you: the Skyline Hollowbody. Designed in collaboration with renowned bass-builder Michael Tobias, this bass is a truly stunning instrument with lightning-fast response. And if you really want to take it to the virtuoso level, you have the option of a fretless version - the ultimate way to show off your skills.

There's nothing particularly complex about Lakland's story: they're just committed to doing things better. Through outstanding craftsmanship and discriminating choice of only the best parts they can get their hands on, Lakland has created a series of bass guitars that set the standard for build and sound quality. If you're ready to take your bass techniques to a whole new level, a Lakland bass is the perfect instrument to make it possible.
