FS/FT: **MINTY** 1984 USA G&L L-1000 w/ OHSC (GandL G and L wunkay 1k)

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm offering this one up reluctantly. Here's a time-capsule example of arguably Leo Fender's best P bass -- the G and L Wunkay!







more high res pics here
  • zero dings or chips!
  • coveted maple neck with the 1-11/16 inch width nut
  • gorgeous rosewood fb
  • 3-bolt neck with microtilt adjustment
  • heavy saddle locking bridge
  • HUGE versatile sound from G&L's MFD humbucker (HOT pickup!)
  • currently thumps and grinds with a set of new Ken Smith Slick Rounds
  • passive controls: knobs = vol, treble cut, bass cut; switch = humbucker, single coil, and single coil with bass boost (aka OMG switch)
  • 10.0 lbs by digital bathroom scale (fairly light for a 1k)

Look around, there's a lot of well deserved love for these basses on TB. Solid tone machines!!

I'm trying to thin the herd, but really struggling with the sale of this one. She's just so nice!!

Given the condition, I think $1149 shipped / paypal is fair.

I'll consider all reasonable offers, trades, or partial trades + cash. A couple things are tempting me right now, so who knows, I may want to cash this out sooner than later. But I would be happy if she was my last bass standing.

^ Good question. I'm honestly not sure. I will see if I can find out, but perhaps someone more knowledgeable will chime in sooner.

Based on a little research, I'm going to guess that the body is made of ash. But I'm no expert here.

Based on the first picture, I'd bet a lot that it's mahogany. Bump for a super-nice L1000.
