Beautiful bass.... your the man Johnny!!!!

Hey Johnny, What's happening? Love your vids. man, Very informative. Listen, I have that same Bass and finish but I have the Lakland pickups and pre, totally stock; but I recently realized that the output (compared to my Fender American Deluxe Jazz) is very low/weak. Would you recommend a ToneMonster preamp with the stock pickups for more output? What do you think of the Lakland LH-3 pickups and Lakland pre? Thanks Man👊🏾

[@Surfer8652]

Nothing like a classic 94 series Lakland! I own a couple, and those are my favorite basses.

[@hodaridaniels8786]

I has an Lakland so I know how it sounds real clean and pristine it has a great superb sound.

Hey Johnny, I enjoyed this fun video and appreciate your playing very much.

Right at “2.47” minutes you give a little “goddamn” giggle, I swear I made that same reaction, at the same time. Sweet F-ing tone. Thank you

Love watchin' u play :D

[@rmccain99]

I agree with the tone monster change because the stock Lakland preamp is only good for Motown.

[@rmccain99]

That needs EMG pickups. I did my mine with Bartolini but it didn't sound as good as my EMG bass, so no more Bartolini.

Strange shape cool sound !?🤔

[@FunkyFlo]

hi jonny how you do?

[@rmccain99]

Jonny! put EMG's in that Mo Fo.

[@ramshaar2597]

This bass is A "fat kinky lady"🙂

[@rmccain99]

Those Lakland pickups have a very low output. Lakland builds a very good bass.

Stretch marks on a bass

Boy uses a fool

[@rmccain99]

The Lakland 55-02 preamp's sucks and so do thier pickups. Better get a 55-01 or an MTD Hier for that matter.

[@JasonWright-mc6dz]

I own both a Lakland 55-02 & and old MTD Kingston Heir that I Modded the bejesus out of (Currently have Delano MM5-He + Jmc5 He MM/J pickups I wired the bridge pup to a 3-way toggle series/single/parallel before a John East Uni-Pre that’s KILLER +Hipshot bridge & tuners etc..) I also have a Sandberg TM-4; (4 string has Delano MM5-Fe + JMVC5 Fe & 2-band Delano Xtender pre stock) and honestly they’re all pretty nice. I prefer the MTD K-Heir over the Lakland 55-02 but that’s only because I love the Assymetrical Neck profile Feiten system and I’ve got it fitted with 850$ worth of custom electronics which I prefer.. The Lakland looks better than the other two by a mile Deluxe Flame maple top cherry burst is 👌🏻. Sandberg is expensive for a non European & MTD discontinued production on the Kingston Heir 5’s yrs ago so.. If you’re in the US a Lakland with Bartolini’s could be the ticket?!?
