Here's what Lakland has to say:
Whether you're playing the local bar scene Friday nights, carrying the rhythm Sunday mornings, or blazing the tour circuit seven days a week, the Lakland 44-02 Deluxe Skyline series bass is the kind of instrument you want to have. The 44-02 Deluxe walks the line between premium quality and high-end price, giving you a fantastic looking, playing, and sounding bass for a great low price. So if you want more from your bass without spending more for your bass, take it from Sweetwater — the 44-02 Deluxe by Lakland is perfect for you!
Lakland's 44-02 Deluxe Skyline features a distinct and recognizable body shape with a gorgeous quilt maple top. The comfortable offset-waist design has great balance and feel. The 44-02 Deluxe Skyline even gives you the same custom-contoured curves, bridge, and pickups as the original US version.
No matter what style of music you play, the Lakland MM-J pickup system will give you every tone you could want. The 44-02 Deluxe Skyline bass sports the same amazing pickups and preamp found on the (much more expensive) 44-94. These active electronics give your instrument serious punch, plus extra expression across the whole fingerboard. A dual-coil MM-style humbucking pickup in the bridge gives you fat, aggressive tones. Meanwhile, the Lakland Split-coil J-style humbucking pickup in the neck position offers mellow, warm tones without any of the hum that plagues vintage designs
Beneath its remarkable duo of active pickups, the Lakland 44-02 Deluxe Skyline bass features the perfect combination of tonewoods, giving you a harmonically rich and hard-hitting sound like no other. What's more, its smoothly contoured ash body makes the 44-02 Deluxe Skyline one of the most comfortable basses you'll ever pick up, and its solid maple neck adds extra punch and sustain to every note you play.
