FS/FT: G&L BABP L1000

[snappytom]

I got this from GaryLC about a month ago, original sale thread with pics is here:

FS: G&L BABP L1000 Bass

It is a great bass but it's just not ringing my bell like I had hoped it would. I end up playing my Franken-FenderFugazi P all the time.
Same excellent condition as I received it, polished the body and gave the fret board a linseed oil treatment. It is very clean and smoke free.

Quoting the thread linked to above:

"This one is tobacco burst finish, weighs 8.7 pounds, rosewood board with a #8 neck (1.5" nut). Made in the U.S. Comes with original G&L case & all paperwork, case has a little dent in one corner. In fantastic shape, no dings or dents.

Currently sporting TI flats, amazing sound!! "

$1000 shipped.


Trades: Would trade for a Lakland DJ 4 (no LPB please) or a USA Fender Jazz 4. Blocks and Binding are nice, I prefer Rosewood fretboards, satin neck finishes, Jazz width necks, and 9lbs or under.
+/- cash is fine, P Basses with Jazz necks also considered.

Thanks for looking !

A Franken-FenderFugazi P is a P body with a Jazz neck that has a Fender Decal on it, but both body parts are from undetermined sources (probably Squiers). It's got a Fralin pickup, pots from a G&L SB-2, and Hipshot ultralite tuners. I may upgrade the bridge at some point.
It's definetly Franken, says Fender, but thats fake (Fugazi) and sounds all P, so Franken-FenderFugazi P is the name I gave it.
It's a lightweight, great sounding bass.
