FS: G&L L2000 Custom Fretless - $899 shipped!

Sign in to disble this ad
Folks, putting this in a shiny new thread for clarity's sake. I'm cleaning house of a bunch of axes that don't get the love they deserve, but now I'm down to one bass to sell so she gets her own thread. More pics can be found at my Picasa page

I'm selling my sweet, epic fretless L2k of awesomeness for SOLD!!! shipped in the CONUS. Holidays are long gone, and the Credit Card companies are wanting blood, so onto the block my last fretless goes.

The bass is US-made, has a blueburst finish on flame-maple top with wood binding, gunoil-tint Jazz neck, figured ebony fingerboard (no, that's not wear in the upper register, it's the natural grain of the wood), matching blue headstock, and gold hardware. Comes with original G&L hardshell case, and is currently strung with TI Jazz Flats, which gives it tons of 'mwah' and growl on the ebony fingerboard. There are side-dots on the neck, and according to the Bathroom Scale Method of weight guesstimation, she's right around 9.5 lbs with the strap. The neck width is 1.75" at the nut, with a 12" radius, so I believe that makes it the G&L #7 neck. Very comfortable, even for someone like me who is used to a more Jazz-like neck width.

The price include shipping in the CONUS, and I am open to reasonable offers. I'm not a fan of PayPal, so payment will have to be via bank check/money order/cash in person/etc. If you've got a REAL good reputation on TB, I'll take a personal check but we'll have to wait for it to clear before shipping. The bass is in EXCELLENT condition with minimal playing wear, and it goes without saying that it is 100% gig-worthy with no issues. I also offer a 7-day trial period starting from the time the axe is delivered to your doorstep. If you don't like it within that period, you can return it to me minus the cost of shipping.



Trade-bait: I'm not really on the market for anything right now, but I'd be moved by an offer for the right Nordy VJ5 or high-end hollowbody jazz guitar (plus cash, of course). I'm also a big fan of G&L ASATs with rosewood/ebony necks...

L2000 L-2000 L2k

Wow! Quite a beauty! Is this a US model or a Tribute? If a US model it's GAStastic....unfortunately for me its a 4 banger.

Correct, this is an all-American G&L Custom, baby. Over $2400 if you were to order it from G&L today.

I used to have a fretless L2000. Great bass. This is tempting but my EUB seems to be handling the "fretless" gigs right now. Still....

Thank you all for your kind words. Just think how good this axe will look either on your music stand, or in your hands on-stage!
