Belair Green Pics anyone?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hello all,
I'm new to this site but lovin all the bass talk. I've just put an order in for two G&L USA's. Both L2K's. One is a typical tobacco burst w/ rosewood board. The second is a fretless in belair green w/ebony board and matching headstock. I wasn't sure if this would be a color I could stand for a while but the more I thought about it the cooler it got. Does anyone have a picture of a belair green G&L? I need a little peek to keep me satisfied while I wait. It is killing me already, waiting for these basses and seeing everyone's awesome G&L's on the site!

Might be close, but it's from 1982.

Ahhh, the Lynx....
Dunno why they ever killed that, it's a much better Jazz than the JB2;
but, that's another thread

Thanks for the pic BigBee. Beautiful axes. What color is that green? Looks almost like a sparkly Green. Very nice none the less.

isnt that Legacy ^^ emerald blue? it looks exactly the same finish as my SB-2. beautiful bass nonetheless

and that Asat is just lush. the term "used to own" shouldn't ever apply to a bass like that.

WOOOOOOOOW Very Beautiful bass Horny Toad. I can't sleep at night because Im so excited about those basses of mine. Got 3 hours of sleep last night because I was thinkin of those beauts and had a session this morning. Well I'm sure it will be worth the wait. If anyone has a pic of a fretless belair please post and thanks to you guys for posting yours!
Cheers!

rkingly- Very Cool! It seems that the asat is a popular model in this color. I've never seen it on an L2000. I will post the pics when it comes in. I'm sure I'll be waiting at least 10 weeks since its not a standard color. The tobacco burst will arrive soon I hope

Heres a pic of my 1995 L-2000 with it's custom neck shape (smaller than normal). It's been around the world a couple of times!
