I use HARTKE Nickel roundwounds. I can buy a 3 set for $33 delivered to the door and thats for fivers! They feel fairly close to Roto's and last just as long. I can afford to change strings more often and don't go in debt! I'm always looking for a bargain on Ebay! I string my 83 Precision and...

Personally I like nickel round wounds and don't give a damn who makes them. My favorites of all time have been Roto's but Fenders are very nice too though This past year I've gone the cheaper route and tried a 3 pack from HARTKE. They're made over seas I'm sure but once again, I don't care as...

I've noticed the thickness is definitely bigger on my 2500 than many basses I've ever played. It's funny because I remember my guitarist always talking about C necks and D's and Boats, thin and thicker on his Strats compared to Les Pauls..etc. I used to laugh. Who cares "I said". Its true, its...

I agree with Jimtones. Those strings are just flapping in the wind at that point like my grandmothers t's. Let the PA do the work....I forgot...let the drummer's kick and the PA do the work. ROCK IS MIDRANGE! Please don't get me wrong because I love the low B as much as the next guy but If you...

If it's not Laquer then it's poly and it doesn't make a difference. The purest out there "think so" and maybey in 20 years it would make a diference if you A-B'd two of the same axes. Is you're audience going to hear the difference? F... no! The biggest challenge, if you are ordering new, (or...

Was that the 5 string Jazz nut already cut for string spacing?

Tab, who needs tab. Listen to the song. I just picked it up last night. I have to learn it too! Coincidence? All on the lower register. You can do it if you listen. R

I put an email into Chris (sevice manager) at G&L to get a real answer. He said "Most of our standard nuts are Micarta. An excellent synthetic bone substitute, tan in color; Ivory in color and a bit softer than bone, it files and sands easily and gives a uniform tone." Now we know! I also...

I just bought my L-2500 (2nd owner) and I was told by the previous owner that G&L's standard nut is made of Corian, which is cool. I searched hi and low on G&L's web site and can't find any info of the standard nut. I'm just trying to confirm the info. Anyone else?

Hi, I'm currious. Where did that picture come from? Great pic. I just bought mine (L-2500) as 2nd owner and it's exactly like the picture. Good luck with your L-2000.
