Hi everyone, I finaly got around to registering on this forum. I have posted pic's of my new SB2 fretless over on the Dudepit but just figured I would post them here as well on case somebody needed to GAS for a SB-2 Fretless:hyper:

I know there has been some concerns on how the build and quality of the newer G&L's would be and I have too say this bass is perfect in every aspect, It plays and sounds like a dream and the finish is spectacular.

Nice ride . . . :cool:

I have a new SB-2 as well (with the new 6 bolt neck, etc...), and it is also perfect in every way! I wish I could afford a cadre of brand new G&Ls based on my experience with this one!

Karl

She's a beaut!

Thanks for sharing!

Ugly. I'd better take it off your hands so you can avoid the embarassment of being seen with it. You'll thank me later.

I click back on this thread everytime someone replies just to have another look at it.
Beautiful bass mate!

Chef, you're not helping my cause!

Nice toothless SB-2! I thought I'd try to add to the GAS flames. I ordered mine new last year (since used ones are rare as hen's teeth) and it is perfect also. I just wish my intonation was better so I could play it more often (I know, I know, practice more . . . )

Damn!
What's a new one run Craig?
(gigged the fish again this week, it rawks!)

I just thought I discovered a missing musical scale when I heard all of those bass notes that don't seem to fit with what anybody else is playing:cool:

By the way it was the pitcure of your bass that I had seen over on the Dudepit that made me decide on the SB-2 as my choice for a fretless. I love these basses!

Is that an ebony board? I'm having wet dreams over that badboy!!!

And this one!!!

All fretless G&L's are made with ebony boards. I have seen a single exception in all the years that is at Buffalo Brothers right now. It is either light rosewood or Pao Ferro.

Jim

Some ebony can look like r/w...sometimes it's dyed black so folks think it looks right...

BB even says it is rosewood. I guarantee it ain't ebony.

Go see yourself.. (http://www.buffalobrosguitars.com/images19000-19999/ugb19250-g&ll2000/index.html)

Jim

Concur, that does not look like any "figured" ebony I've seen...

If it's mine you're asking about, yes it's an unlined ebony board.

Damn!

You've got PM, Alan.

I wish I still had that fish - I'm gigging my bugeye tomorrow (they do rawk, although this won't be a rawk gig).

From G&L's Option page:


****
Fretless Bass Neck available in three variations:
* without ghostlines
* with ghostlines
* with white inlayed ghostlines

Fretless bass fingerboard available in Ebony only.

Yes and if that badboy ever goes up for sale I want first dibs!!!!!

If you told me that an SB-2 in Clear Blue with b/w/b pickguard would be a stunningly beautiful combination I wouldn't have believed you. I humbly stand corrected. Wow.

I had a green J-Bass in the late 70's and I thought I would never own a green bass again. LOL

Ahh, early SB2, with frets...in green!
