FS: Near Mint G&L SB-2! Super Sexy Blue!

Sign in to disble this ad
I literally just got this bass and thought this was going to be it for me. I have been wanting to try an SB-2 for a while now, but I never found one that I liked the color of. Then I saw this one:
















I have never had a blue bass before, and I still love the way this one looks. It is truly an amazing bass in every way. The bass is in like new-mint condition. The previous owner rarely played her, and the old original strings were still on it when I got her. I took them off and put some brand new Dunlops (love those strings). Action is set pretty low. If I were keeping it, I would raise it a little more since I tend to dig in, but, I know how you all are about your low action. The bass sound great. Very thick. This is quite possibly the hottest P pickup i've ever heard. The construction of G&L is also amazing. That 6 bolt neck isn't going anywhere. Besides the strings, this is completely stock. It beats any USA Fender i've owned as well.

Total, I have about 850 bucks in this one. I would like to get somewhere around 825 shipped for it (ConUS).

Specs:
PICKUPS G&L Magnetic Field split coil humbucking pickup in center position, with G&L Magnetic Field single coil in bridge position
BODY WOOD Alder on Standard and all solid finishes, Swamp Ash on all Premier finishes
NECK WOOD Hard Rock Maple with Rosewood or Maple fingerboard
NECK RADIUS 12" (304.8mm)
NECK WIDTH AT NUT 1 1/2" (38.1mm)
TUNING KEYS Custom G&L "Ultra-Lite" with aluminum tapered string posts
BRIDGE G&L Saddle Lock with chrome-plated brass saddles
CONTROLS One volume control for each pickup, no tone control
FINISH Standard finishes included
OTHER Chrome hardware, no pickguard, Deluxe Hardshell Tolex Case w/Fitted Interior

if she were a jazz bass, i'd be keeping her. the only trades i am interested in would be jazz style basses or basses with jazz pickups.

Thanks guys.

This is a gorgeous bass and if I were more into the P thing, I would have no problem keeping this.
