+1 on this. Getting the right pickup height with those mfd's is crucial to getting a good sound. When I hammer away like thunder fingers, that mfd gots ta be low enough to avoid clipping the pole pieces or you'll be hearing more crinkle than snarl or growl. Btw, thanks for the compliment PJRL, you should grab an SB1 for yourself. Happy Chanukah!

Banned eh? Yeah thats the one! Play the heck out of it. Those old sb-2s are really nice. Very underrated basses.

Cool man. It's alive and well and getting played. It's the one that got stolen out of my house and later recovered. Awesome Jazz's, for sure.

scubaduba has his blackburst M2500 posted in classifieds, if anyone's looking for such an extremely cool thing.

I just wanted all of the G&L fans to know that Hello Music has the tribute JB-2 on sale for $329. If you combine that with the first time buyer coupon (HM2515OFF) you can pick one up for $304 plus shipping!

For now anyway. Not totally sure about this. It's just that I have an itch I'm trying to scratch.

Holy crap!



Use code XMAS50 for fifty bucks off and free shipping.

Too bad I already bought one at $305.
