FT Only: G&L (GandL) M-2500

There's a long story on this bass. I purchased an expensive bass from a local retailer, only to discover it had massive issues after I got it home. The retailer wouldn't give me a refund, but they did allow me to trade. I got this bass and another, as they were the two I liked best in their inventory.

Up for trade only is a brand new M-2500 in Ruby Red Metallic with matching headstock. Brought home two weeks ago from Corner Music in Nashville. Never gigged or left my home. Here are the specs:

PICKUPS: Two G&L Magnetic Field humbucking pickups
BODY WOOD: Alder on Standard and all solid finishes, Swamp Ash on Premier Finishes
NECK WOOD: Hard Rock Maple with Rosewood or Maple fingerboard
NECK PROFILE: G&L #10 with 12" radius and 1 3/4" nut-width FRETS: Medium Jumbo; processed by PLEK
TUNING KEYS: Custom G&L "Ultra-Lite" with aluminum tapered string posts
BRIDGE: G&L Saddle Lock with chrome-plated brass saddles
ELECTRONICS: G&L M-spec 18v preamp, volume, pan, 3-band boost/cut EQ with center detents
CASE: Deluxe Hardshell Tolex Case

It plays and sounds great. Here are the pics:








LOOKING FOR TRADES ONLY. Will consider 4 or 5 strings of equal or greater value. I'm really just fishing to see whats out there, so shoot me a PM if interested.

No trades with anyone outside the lower 48, or with less than 5 feedbacks as a seller. My bass will ship UPS ground insured for trade value, and I'll expect the same on the other end. If interested, please send PM.

Rosewood. 9.5lbs on my bathroom scale (which I can't swear is accurate.)
