FS/FT: US G&L L2500

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey Everyone,
Up for Sale or Trade is my beautiful 2008 G&L L2500.
Here are the particulars:

US L2500:
Cherryburst over Flame Maple with Ebony fingerboard
2 G&L Magnetic Field humbucking pickups
NECK RADIUS 12" (304.8mm)
NECK WIDTH AT NUT 1 3/4" (44.5mm)
TUNING KEYS Custom G&L "Ultra-Lite" with aluminum tapered string posts
BRIDGE G&L Saddle Lock with chrome-plated brass saddles
CONTROLS G&L Tri-Tone active/passive electronics, 3-way mini-toggle pickup selector, series/parallel mini-toggle, preamp control mini-toggle (off/on/on with high end EQ boost)
Chrome hardware
G&L Gigbag
approx 10 lbs (bathroom scale)

Asking $1100.00 Shipped to the lower 48

This is a great bass in pristine condition. Why am I selling? I just got my first Sadowsky & am hooked.

The only trades I'd consider are for a 34" scale fretless 5 string.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice -

When did G&L start with the string through the body?

Hang on to it. I thought I was hooked on Sadowsky, too. I no longer play them...FWIW.

That is a beautiful finish. Never seen it on a G&L

I have a sadowsky also, but would still like that G&L. Its one of the few basses I still GAS for. Thank goodness (for my wallet) that you won't ship internationally.

Hey Everybody,

I've re-opened this for sale thread.

I have an opportunity to grab two basses I've had my eye on for a while and unfortunately Big Red has to go......

Just a quick update;

I need to change this to a strictly For Sale post.

I'm trying to raise some cash for another purchase. Thanks for all the tempting trade offers, but I have to keep my eye on the prize......
