That case needs a case to keep it looking that good!

Opinions please: why is it that I can buy a brand new Roscoe for about the same money as this VERY simple Lakland. Having 2 Roscoes, it seems to me that this bass is overpriced by at least $1000, maybe more.

Thoughts?

OK, hmmmm... I just checked out the Lakland web site, and listened to the sound samples of this bass. Holy s**t :shock: ! That sounds incredibly fat, warm, punchy, and even. I also get the concept now: an accurate reproduction of a vintage Precision.

The blocks and binding are a pretty expensive upgrade on a Lakland too, you'd be looking at a cheaper bass without them.

$800 UPCHARGE FOR BLOCKS AND BINDINGS.... Whoops, sorry for yelling. :shock:

My Lakland JO5 I bought used on the bay had this config and confirmed from Lakland the upgrade charge... and wait! It's a GREAT looking upgrade. My bass pics are up on leftybassist somewhere here.

Bottom of the page for pic. The block inlays and binding is worth the upgrade... Trust me.

I'm about a 15 minute drive from this store. If anyone's interested in having me check this Glaub out, let me know.

it sold for the BIN price. what's interesting to me is that there were over 1010 other eBayer's watching the auction!
