Vintage Charm, Modern Precision
The Lakland 44-64 Custom PJ Electric Bass, available at Terry Carter Music Store, carries the essence of early electric basses that once defined an era, offering players a refined version of the instruments that shook the foundations of rock, soul, and jazz. With its hybrid split coil pickup, this Lakland marvel masterfully captures the deep, rich tones reminiscent of a well-preserved vintage instrument. And yet, it doesn’t merely rest on the laurels of nostalgia—it adds modern precision and playability, including flawless fretwork and refined neck ergonomics that elevate the playing experience to a whole new level.
Versatility Meets Comfort
The 44-64 Custom PJ version takes things even further, adding a single coil "J" bridge pickup into the mix, which means that you get a massive boost in tonal versatility. You can switch between the distinct warmth of the "P" style or the snappy brightness of the "J" style bridge pickup, and even blend the two for your unique sound. The sleek 1.5” neck taper with pearl block inlay markers not only offers great aesthetics but also gives the player an exceptionally comfortable grip, making it easy to glide from note to note with confidence.
Crafted for the Player's Touch
The 44-64’s flat-sawn Rock Maple neck and Rosewood fingerboard add a touch of resonance that bassists crave, while the ash body gives it a balanced weight and classic tonewood resonance. The Lakland Dual Access bridge allows for either through-body or through-bridge stringing, offering players the freedom to customize their string tension and overall feel. With Hipshot Ultralites keeping the bass in tune without adding excess weight to the headstock, this instrument is built for those long gigs and late-night jams that require reliability.
Timeless Appeal, Built to Inspire
Whether you’re a touring professional, a studio musician, or simply an enthusiast of that rich, vintage-inspired sound, the Lakland 44-64 Custom PJ Electric Bass provides both the tools and the inspiration. Its combination of classic tone and flawless modern engineering makes it a must-have for those who appreciate authenticity, quality, and versatility in their instruments.
