The No-Jive Fives
Drop bombs with our 55-94 and 55-Dual J 5-string basses – featuring a clearly defined low B-string. Laying down lines with the combination of Lakland’s 35 scale length and solid string-throughbody design, players can expect to hear rich lows from the open B to the fifth fret E, chromatically – not just a tonal mud puddle. Taking on the thick fifth string can be a daunting task…but not on a Lakland. Our necks have full spacing at their bridges, with a comfortable taper down to the slim nut, making them the most accessible and versatile 5-string basses available. Our neck joint allows access to each of the 22 frets. The Lakland low-B is unlike any other.
The 55-94
Our second flagship bass offers the powerful Lakland low-B thumping through an MM pick-up in the bridge position and a single j-style at the neck. The MM pick-up has a coil splitter to maximize its tonal range.
The 55-Dual J
The passive Dual J provides a range of classic tones from its two Lindy Fralin pickups, which faithfully reproduce the full voice of the low-B.
The 55-63
This bass provides the popular J/J pickup configuration equipped with a pair of Bartolini pickups and an on-board preamp.
