G&L for a P-Bass player?

At the shop where I bought my L-1500, I met some guys who operate a studio in West Chester, PA. They have an SB-2, and said most bands decide to use it when they hear how well it records. I'd love to add one to the arsenal, but alas, a fiver is next up.

West Chester's only 1/2 hour from me. I'd better check to make sure my SB-2 is still in its case.

The Sb-1 is my favorite P-bass I own. As mentioned above it's a little sexier than a P, but where it really shines is in the thump department. When you roll the tone all the way down you get a thump from beyond the grave. I have owned many P-basses over the years and nothing matches the output and balls of the Sb-1. Mine is an 87' (the second incarnation of the Sb-1). Plus, if you can find one you can still get one for about the price of a tribby.

Do you know what value capacitor is in the tone circuit?
I've been thinking about adding a tone to my SB-2 to give it al little more warmth but haven't decided what cap to use yet...

Thank,

I didn't think to look on the G&L website about this- it's a .1uf cap...(I would have guessed as much)

The SB basses are very puncy , check out the L2K series as well.
