i was thinking about a lakland myself then i played a ken smith mw 6 string
I higly reccomend trying this bass although it has a somewhat different sound than the lakland i think you will find the tone shaping capabilites quite amazing !
I also played the lakland 55-02 that same day and it was also something to experience
I would also HIGHLY reccomend the davd eden 410 xst BEST CAB EVER !, although the XLT is similar it does not handle the low B string as well as the XST because o the Frequencies (36 compared to 50 with the XLT, MHz that is)
However my choice would be the MW by the slimest of margins.
