Lakland Bass Guitars at LV Guitars
Lakland has earned a devoted following among working bassists for building instruments that feel right the moment you strap them in — balanced, comfortable on a long gig, and built to deliver in every room from the rehearsal space to the stage. LV Guitars carries a focused selection of Skyline Series basses in the $1,399–$1,799 range, where Chicago-designed craftsmanship meets real-world playability across ash and maple bodies, rosewood fingerboards, and a mix of passive and active pickup configurations on a familiar 34" scale bolt-on platform.
The two in-stock pieces — a 44-64 Custom PJ in Black and a 44-02 Deluxe in Three Tone Sunburst with quilted maple top — speak directly to the funk groover, the rock anchor, the jazz player who needs clarity on a loud stage, and the studio bassist chasing tone that sits in the mix without fighting for space. Hipshot hardware keeps tuning locked through the whole set, and whether the gig calls for passive punch or active headroom, these are basses built to be played hard and owned for years.
