The Lakland Hollowbody Bass
The Lakland Hollowbody is the result of our collaboration with master bass guitar builder, Michael Tobias. The Hollowbody is constructed of two precision-carved pieces of fine tone wood – mahogany for the back and maple for the top and neck. The fingerboard is fashioned from rosewood. The resonant voice of the bass’ cavity is faithfully reproduced by passive Bartolini humbuckers designed specifically for Lakland.
The Hollowbody provides a range of robust tones that more than match the bass’ gorgeous appearance. The Hollowbody has a firm, punchy attack that is lacking in most hollow basses, and maintains its focus well into a sustain.
The bass is available in three different variations. The Hollowbody is the standard version of the bass; the Hollowbody Deluxe features a flame maple top; and a Limited Edition version of the Hollowbody is available with a Grade AAAAA Flame Maple top.
The Sound of Space
Bartolini pickups with snazzy chrome surrounds are adjustable using a 3-position toggle and independent volume/tone controls. There is a switch to shift the humbuckers to single coils for a thinner sound.
