Ships to:
  1. United States
*PRICE DROP*, Mint G&L LB100 4 String, Built To Order series USA Made, Empress body 7.3 pounds! Jazz width 1.5" nut and 12" radius. Natural Satin finish neck.
Vintage White w/ Matching headstock, Maple light Satin neck with Dark Rosewood (not uneven Caribbean Rosewood) and Tortoise pickguard. Dunlop Straploks installed. Other mod was a prewired harness from FatBass that includes Output jack, Volume and Nordstrand's Tone Drop Tone pot. It has a push/pull pot with .047 and .1uf caps. The .1 gives you a darker sound. Nice option. Currently strung with LaBella Low Tension Flats.

Comes in a G&L gig bag and both the bass and the bag are in MINT condition. The bass was completed on 4/8/25 and I got it around the middle of May '25. It listed for over $2200, plus the Nordstrand Tone Drop Tone pot. Been in my pet and smoke free home since then. Hardly played, I figured out I'm really a "Jazz Bass" guy after all, so not interested in trades.

You certainly can't order these anymore, so here's your chance to get a "like new" one.
*NOW INCLUDING FREE SHIPPING*
Only shipping to the 48 Contiguous U.S. States. PayPal works for me.


Edit: I included the last photo because it’s a better representation of the color. It shows the Nordy Power Blades pickup, which I tried briefly and does not come with this bass. It has the original G&L P pickup.

To give you an idea of what this bass sounds like (this is with rounds). Still the best review I've heard of this bass. This video convinced me to buy my first LB100 sight unseen. Thanks Ed.

I had an LB100 and loved that thing! Great bass! If it were a 5er, I would be all over this. GLWTS.

Dang! Empress AND 1.5 width nut?? AAAND matching HS!! Special combo
Thanks. Actually the Vintage White color looks way better “in person” than these pictures show.
Edit: I added a photo that shows the color in a better "light".

I have a JB in Silver Metallic with nearly identical specs, but mine has a 7.5 inch radius. It's an incredible instrument - resonant and the build quality is spectacular. I'd buy this if I didn't already have a couple P basses.

Such a great ad, I decided not to sell it. 😆
Actually, spent the last few days playing this a lot and decided it’s a great bass.
As for the “Jazz Bass guy” I’ll probably pick one up eventually. But I regretted selling my last LB100 in the low 7 pound range, and since this time I can’t order a new one…

I believe I am the owner of the last LB100 you're mentioning. I've had my eye on this listing. PM sent
