The Lakland Skyline 44-60 Custom (Vintage J) is Lakland's tribute to the four-string J-style sound that defined R&B, funk, and rock low-end for half a century, built around two of the brand's hand-wound passive Vintage J single-coil pickups for the unmistakable bridge bite and neck-pickup warmth Jazz Bass players have chased since 1960. The Custom version adds block inlays and binding on the Indian Laurel fingerboard, plus Lakland's signature 1.5-inch neck taper that players love for fast lines and fluid right-hand technique. An Ash body, flat-sawn rock maple neck, Lakland Dual Access bridge for through-body or through-bridge stringing, and Hipshot Ultralite tuners deliver the build quality the Skyline line is known for at a price that puts a serious pro bass in reach. Finished in Candy Apple Red with matching headstock for the unmistakable Skyline aesthetic.
