Longer scale length for better B-string tone

Bassists at Sweetwater especially like Lakland 5-string basses because their longer 35-inch scale length holds the low B string at a higher tension. This means that your lowest notes will have more punch and impact, with more note definition too. If you've played a few 5-string bass guitars, you know that some of them can sound quite flubby in the lowest registers — with the Lakland Skyline 55-02 Deluxe, your tone will stay tight and pronounced right down to the low B.

Active pickups and preamp

No matter what style of music you play, the Lakland MM-J pickup system will give you every tone you could want. The 55-02 Deluxe Skyline bass sports the same amazing pickups and preamp found on the (much more expensive) 44-94. These active electronics give your instrument serious punch, plus extra expression across the whole fingerboard. A dual-coil MM-style humbucking pickup in the bridge gives you fat, aggressive tones. Meanwhile, the Lakland Split-coil J-style humbucking pickup in the neck position offers mellow, warm tones without any of the hum that plagues vintage designs.

Ash and maple - an ideal bass tonewood combination

Beneath its remarkable duo of Lakland active pickups, the Lakland 55-02 Deluxe Skyline bass features the perfect combination of tonewoods, giving you a harmonically rich and hard-hitting sound like no other. What's more, its smoothly contoured ash body makes the 55-02 Deluxe Skyline one of the most comfortable basses you'll ever pick up, and its solid maple neck adds extra punch and sustain to every note you play.

  • An affordable custom bass with active pickups
