This Lakland was DAF (dirty as f***!). Being a fretless, the fingerboard needed a good amount of cleaning done to restore the feel of the bass. After that, I followed up with a nice oiling and cleaned the body. The action was high so I took it down just a touch and now it makes some lovely sounds. It also had some issue with the on board preamp.
Somehow the bias was set to stun so the output was very high and distorted everything it was plugged into. The battery box was also very crusty since the battery that was in it leaked. All that was taken care of and now all is right with this lovely instrument.
