NYE TalkBass SPECIAL!!!
This USA G&L L2000 was custom-ordered in 2006 by a TB-er. The specs at the time of ordering were solid HOG body, gun oil tint #6 maple neck, single-coil option. It came to me last spring. It was advertised to be in "excellent" condition, but after a long time trying to set it up properly, I found that it had a rather significant ramp in the original gun oil tint maple neck. I had a fret-level done on that neck, but the result wasn't doing it for me.
I found this incredible #6 (1.5" nut, ~7" radius) fretted ebony satin finish neck in un-played condition for sale here in the classifieds. It has a small ding in the headstock (only blemish on the instrument, pictured below) but it plays excellent... nearly straight relief, with low action. Personally, I prefer the look of the ebony, it has some really nice figuring that didn't photograph well, and it plays as good or better than any G&L I have come across. It is currently strung with a relatively new set of DR Hi-beams. It has a that G&L tone for fingerstyle, but the slap tone is just fantastic.
I recently tracked a christmas song using this bass, and it sounds great. You can hear it here:
