A Timeless Classic with a Modern Twist
Imagine holding in your hands a bass guitar that effortlessly merges classic style with a refined modern edge—that's the Lakland 44-OS Electric Bass for you. With its distinctive yet understated Offset body design, this bass promises both comfort and an undeniable stage presence. It’s as if it has been crafted not just for the player but for the performer as well.
The natural ash body paired with a rosewood fingerboard is a match made in tonal heaven—delivering a crisp resonance that gives you the confidence to explore every note, every rhythm. And what’s more, the all-black hardware adds an extra dash of sleekness, making it look as powerful as it sounds.
Versatility is at Your Fingertips
Here lies the true magic of the 44-OS: its versatility. Thanks to the Bartolini MK-1 split-coil soap bar pickups and the Bartolini HR-5.4 AP 3-band preamp, you’re not just getting a bass guitar—you’re getting a multifaceted sonic weapon. The combination of boost and cut controls for bass, midrange, and treble, along with a 3-way midrange selector switch, provides a world of tonal variety.
Whether you're after the punchy clarity of a modern slap, the smooth warmth of fingerstyle, or the grit of an aggressive picked tone, the Lakland 44-OS will deliver it all with ease. Moreover, the panning-style pickup blend control allows for an even deeper dive into custom tonal possibilities—the power of sculpting your sound has never felt this tangible.
Built for Playability and Precision
The 44-OS is all about making every moment of your playing experience enjoyable. Its flat-sawn maple neck is a delight—perfectly balanced between rigidity and responsiveness—while the rosewood fingerboard brings a rich touch to each note. Hipshot Ultralite tuners keep the instrument well-balanced and reduce headstock weight, so your fingers can dance effortlessly, free of fatigue.
Additionally, with the Lakland Dual Access bridge, which offers both through-body and through-bridge stringing options, players can decide exactly how they want to craft their attack and sustain. This instrument respects your playing style, allowing for customizations that reflect you.
In short, the Lakland 44-OS Electric Bass is for the passionate bassist who seeks versatility, high-end features, and flawless craftsmanship—all wrapped up in one beautiful package. It's the bass guitar that will challenge you, inspire you, and ultimately grow with you as you journey through soundscapes both familiar and uncharted. Take hold of this instrument and let it do what it does best—bring out the very best in you.
