What’s more, its smoothly contoured ash body makes the Custom PJ one of the most comfortable basses you’ll ever pick up, and its rock maple neck adds extra punch and sustain to every note you play. The Lakland dual-access bridge lets you choose whether you want to top load the strings or pass them through the body. No matter how you like your bass strung up, the Skyline 44-64 Custom PJ has you covered.
A classic electric bass — reborn!
Inspired by the early-1960s incarnation of the world’s first electric bass, the Lakland Skyline 44-64 Custom PJ lets you hold down the low end in style. That’s largely thanks to a pair of Lakland’s amazing custom-wound pickups, fitted in classic P/J configuration. This arrangement gives you the low-end punch from the hybrid split-coil pickup in the middle position, along with the aggressive growl from the Vintage J single-coil at the bridge. Mix up your signature blend, and you’re ready to rock. And with upgrades such as Lakland’s impressive dual-access bridge, you’ll get the best combination of classic sound and modern stability with your Skyline 44-64 Custom PJ bass.
