Details

I'm selling my 2007 custom made G&L ASAT bass. It features white binding and a beautiful birds eye maple fret board. The neck is a clear satin finish. I believe the neck is a #6 (Jazz width). The body is pristine. There are a few scuff marks on the top of the headstock. I had to replace the truss rod nut, which I did at an authorized G&L dealer. The truss rod turns great, and the bass is currently set up nicely. Everything else is stock. The bass weighs just under 10 pounds on my bathroom scale. Currently strung with D'Addario rounds. I am the only owner.

I added a strap button under the heel of the neck so that the neck would be positioned at an angle. However, neck dive isn't as much of an issue as it sometimes is for these basses. This bass sounds great, plays great, and looks fantastic. Comes with the certificate of authenticity, and sticker too. Comes with the original hardshell case. The case has a small crack which I pictured. I believe the case earned the crack doing what cases are supposed to do and the crack is only a cosmetic issue. Asking $950 Shipped. Negotiable on price for a local sale (northern New England). Pay pall accepted

I neglected to post a picture of the crack in the case mentioned in my first post. Here it is.

Can't stand this crappy USA - Canada exchange rate!! :rage: - I would be VERY tempted to pull the trigger on this bass if not for that. And this is coming from someone who has only tried a couple of G & L basses, neither of which I found to have particularly comfortable necks, which is generally a deal-breaker for me. If I recall, though, they were both 5-strings, and neither was an ASAT (L-2500 and M-2500) - I'd be hoping this ASAT 4 would have a slightly different/more comfy neck profile. That single-cut body design is one of my favorites...then add the BEM board, the body binding, AND that sweet G & L headstock shape, man oh man...:thumbsup::bassist::hyper::woot::smug:

EDIT: I should say I *AM* tempted to pull the trigger on this bass despite the exchange rate - if our dollars were at parity, or way closer at least, I think the deal would be done already...:oops::whistle::D

I can't do anything to improve the Canadian dollar, but I can tell you about the neck. It's number 6: a modern jazz profile. The edges are beveled which does it for me. its rounder and chunkier than a fender jazz and hurts and easier on my hand.

I haven't seen many g&ls with a #6 either.

I'm reducing this one last time $950 shipped. This is a steal for anyone who wants these extra options. This bass sounds awesome plays awesome and has a really comfortable neck. Buy it, turn it up, and make your neighbors rue the day they moved in next door. post edited to reflect price change. How do I change the price in the title?
