Modern Short-scale Hollowbody Bass
Bring a cool archtop flair and big tone to your bass rig with the Lakland Skyline Hollowbody-30 Bass Guitar. With carved mahogany back and sides and a carved maple top, this bass gives you huge tones unlike any other hollowbody on the market. The Skyline Hollowbody-30 is armed with a pair of single-coils that deliver broad frequency response, giving you warm rotundity on the bottom, stunning midrange clarity, and creamy-smooth highs. From deep bass notes reminiscent of an upright to the aggressive, throaty sounds of a solidbody bass, the Lakland Skyline Hollowbody-30 is ready for any gig.
Great looks and performance for any gig
A mahogany body with carved maple top gives you classic hollowbody F-hole looks and big, beefy tone. The Skyline Hollowbody-30 will exceed your expectations for comfort and playability. Bassists at Sweetwater love the feel of the short-scale maple neck. Sonically, the Vintage Style single-coil pickups boast a warm, rounded bottom with detailed mids and a nice high end — perfect for delivering solid low-frequency grooves that punch through the mix.
