Friday Weekly '88-93 G&L L5000 Roundup

I know it's not Friday, but had to share these pics of this L5000 I picked up a few weeks ago on Reverb! Neck date April 10 1991. Body date June 4 1991.

The frets were in rough shape, but after a level/crown/polish this thing plays great! I think it's my favorite 5 string I've ever owned, possibly more than my MTD PJ. Currently strung with La Bella Low Tension Flats.

Also, holy crap this MFD split pickup is LOUD, but so versatile even with just a volume/tone.
