Hey Y'all,
Well, I did it again. I overbought, again. 3 more US G&Ls in a couple of weeks. And that's too many - something has to give. I look at what I've got, what I bought and figured out which I wanted to sell. None. They are all "keepers" (how lightly I use that word
). But that's not an acceptable answer and after much pondering this is the one that's available.
It's a gorgeous US G&L SB-2. Ash body with an attractive grain pattern covered with a rich clear blue finish (one of my personal favorites). The fretboard is a very nice birdseye maple. The neck is 1.5" wide at the nut and has a satin finish. Standard vol/vol controls and unknown rounds on it. The strap buttons are Dunlop dual design ones - those are what came on it and I can ship with those in place or put on something else (I think I have some black ones that may be Schallers or some G&L ones from one of my other basses).
The only flaw I can find is a ding on the headstock (see pic). Otherwise it's in wonderful condition. Weight-wise I've realized that although I have a digital bathroom scale that weighs in tenths of a pound it's repeatability/accuracy is not that good. So I'll say it's roughly 9.75 lbs.
It sounds like an SB-2. Take a traditional P-bass add more highs, more lows, more growl and more clarity. Extremely high output, more than many active basses from a purely passive setup.
It will ship in a molded G&L case.
