FS/T: USA G&L JB-2 bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey Y'all,

I've had this up and pulled it down a couple of times as it's a very nice bass. But I've grown my number of basses to the point where something has to give (beyond the others I've had listed for a while) and this is it.

It's a nice and light (8.4 lbs) US G&L JB-2 with a trans white/blonde finish over an ash body and a rosewood board. The neck is G&L's take on a modern J neck - 1.5" wide at the nut and 12" fretboard radius. The neck finish is satin which feels great, IMO.
I'm not a huge fan of the OEM G&L J pickups and replaced them with Fender CS 60s single coil jazz pickups. Those sound very good to me and I've added series/parallel switching on a push/pull pot.

String-wise you can have it with rounds or flats (your choice) and it will ship in a gig bag.

It's in pretty nice condition. I've found one little scratch on the back of the neck that I can see but my fingers don't feel when playing.

$650 shipped in the contiguous 48, paypal OK

If you want I'll throw in a set of unused DiMarzio UltraJazz pickups for another $50. I've never installed them as the bass they were bought to try in (a G&L JB) got returned before I installed them.

potential trades:

Steinberger Spirit XZ-2
NS Wav 4
Reverend Rumblefish 4
G&L L-2000 or SB-2 (under 9lbs, 1.5" nut width)

Markbass NY 121 extension cab
Schroeder 12+L or 15+L 8 Ohm

You know, I'd like to move this quickly (I get antsy when I have this many basses in the house) so lets try a price drop to $595
