I got it from a fellow Pitter/TB'er a while back. I've hardly played it much, and had it up for sale a couple of times without any bites. Guess I'm hanging onto it as a spare now. I like it just fine, except I'm just a 4-banger nowadays.

Just picked this one up a couple weeks back. The pic doesn't really show it, but in certian lighting conditions there's a yellow-ish hue in the paint (factory invoice says it's "Vintage White").

I'm loving the B string on this. It was suggested to me to put on DR Low Riders SS with a .130 B string. It sounds great when dropping it to a low-A.

Is it me? Or do these G&L's with their exposed polepeices make them a great choice for hard rock/metal....on looks alone.

I figure that this would be the best place to ask. Is it true that a G&L can get a very close reproduction of a Wal tone? Say like Justin Chancellor of TOOL????

Here's my latest addition to the G&L Family...a first year issue of Leo's best, a 'hog tobacco burst L-1000 with a sweet and brite maple board. Also included some of the others, a few of which have gone to other masters.
