FT: Fretless USA Tobaccoburst G&L L2500: Pristine! Very clean ebony fretboard

Hello all,

I literally JUST freaking got this like last week. I wanted to try fretless again, but I am not cut out for it. I don't have the ear or the patience for it. I have probably played this thing close to 10 hours in the week or so I've had it.

That being said, it's a gorgeous bass with those excellent G&L electronics we all know and love. The G&L 5-string neck profile is the most comfortable I have ever laid hands upon. The nut width is a slender 1 3/4" (slimmer than some Precision Bass necks) and I honestly do not know the string spacing, but due to the slim neck width I would assume it is closer to 17mm than 19mm.

I don't know what else needs to be said! It's a G&L, which automatically implies a quality good. I do have the OHSC and DO NOT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ASK IF THIS IS A USA. It's in the title. Also, the previous owner included some Schaller straplocks and these will be included.

I am looking to trade for a fretted 5 string... My list of lust is as follows. I can trade up or down as needed, but keep in mind I do not have a lot of money to add.

(Also, these are all fretted. The ONLY reason I am trading this is because I was dumb enough to think I could play fretless again. Black or chrome hardware only, please, with a preference towards black. I loathe gold hardware. I also have a strong preference towards maple fingerboards when applicable, and will only consider Warwicks with bubinga bodies).

-G&L L2500, L2000, or SB-2
-Warwick Thumb 5
-Warwick Corvette 5

Pictures!

(The pictures are not pointing out any flaws, because there aren't any)

 

Bump I'll waiting on a camera to take good pics with :/

 

Bump for pictures! With the exception of the first one, I'd say they turned out pretty good for cell phone pics!

 

I have a couple offers on the table, but they're not quite what I'm looking for just yet. Still considering!

 

Bump for shrunken trade list...

I'm gonna give the fretless a chance for a while, unless someone offers me a Thumb or a G&L with a maple fingerboard.

 

$850 shipped is what I got it for, and since the bass I'd like on the forums is $850 shipped, I can do that.

 

Haha indeed... Ya never know....

Bump! I just got a BADASS VW GTI today and I am happy despite the fact I hate my ex!

 

BAMP.

 

Turned 19 today. Metal.

 

Bump. Don't really have much to say.

 

Honestly, I don't know to measure string spacing. If someone can give me a method with which to accurately measure the spacing, I shall do so.

Mwah and growl or whatever the heck you want, this bass will do it. It's a G&L, which means it's versatile, and I have been able to get anything from nice smooth Jamiroquai tone to some grindy Coheed and Cambria tone.

 

I can do $800 shipped as I found a bass I would like on the forums.

 

I would also let this go for a G&L JB (not JB-2) or a Fender MIA Jazz w/ a maple fingerboard.

 

Sale Pending...

 

Haha SOLD. I have acquired an SB-2 and some cash with which to tat myself. SCORE!
