    Replacement neck for an '80-'81 G&L L-1000: But with a twist!

    Help! I inherited a 1980 L-1000 (my third wunkey!). Unfortunately the neck has gone south and is unusable. Finding a stock replacement for one of these would be challenging enough, but here's a twist: I find the L-1000 necks to be too wide for my tastes--especially at the nut. My dream has...

    New from G&L!

    And passive. With a 1.5” nut. I have an ‘81, but I can certainly be convinced to buy a new one especially a fretless to match.

    NBD: 1981 G&L L-1000 Mahogany/Ebony--w/crazy followup!

    When the G&L was stolen in 2005, I built a custom J. It was my main player until 2013 when it was stolen out of my car when I accidentally left it in the back seat after a gig. I bought a Modern Player's J as a replacement. When I ordered the G&L at work the Friday before Christmas, I announced...

    NBD: 1981 G&L L-1000 Mahogany/Ebony--w/crazy followup!

    Peavey Dynabass Clips

    I picked up one in the natural Koa a month ago for $150. A near boutique quality bass for next to nothing!

    Did you ever miss a bass so much you wish it was back? Well.

    I had a 1980 G&L L-1000 that I swear was a part of me. It was stolen from my home in 2005. I work in a music store (a block from where it was stolen), and everyday I hope someone will walk in wanting to sell it.

    I might have to give up alcohol :-(

    Welcome to 40. It pretty much put an end to it for me also, though I still indulge--but few and far between. It seemed like a foreign idea at first, but I feel 1000% better for it.
