G&L Club Part 3

[BadJazz]

Ya know...THAT was my thought exactly....
I had doubts that it would bring in $1,270.00 plus shipping even as brand new in the used marketplace.....so back it went.

You kept that birds eye necked beauty, I hope???

 

[Mrfstop]

Hahaha BadJazz....

You KNOW I did!!
I loved that one so much, I lost my mind and sold an as new 2011 Stingray Classic and used that money to buy a new 2011 fullerton red L-2000 from an online dealer.....rosewood fretboard...gun oil neck...#7....
But once I got it and played it....
Wished I never did the deal...
It just was not the bass the "butterscotch blonde" with the Birdeyes fretboard....gun oiled #8 neck is....

My eyes! My eyes!! I can't see!..... What a collection.

Yay for Cherryburst!

what year did g&l start doing cherry burst ?

 

[Chef]

1980, I think.
Pretty sure Tris has a 1980 L1000 in that color...

"one of these things is not like the others...."

My eyes! My eyes!! I can't see!..... What a collection.

 

[staindbass]

wow, that is a super collection ! the reason i asked when they started the cherryburst was years back i asked for some custom colors, two tone,with the headstocks matching the center colors. and they said it wouldent come out right because the colors would run and blur into each other. i said "do it anyways?" and they came out fine. i will post a photo soon.

BTW, can anybody show me pictures of honeyburst and cherryburst G&L basses with rosewood fretboard and matching headstock?

[staindbass]

My first post here, and my first G&L bass (actually my first bass since I have just started the steep learning curve of playing this thing...).

It's a 1991 SB-2 and as you can see it's a custom. I just love this satin black finish..! Don't know if it left the factory like this, or if the custom job was done later. I bought it from a guy called Darth

No, I bought it from a dealer in the UK and I've been looking through all the G&L threads here on the forum hoping that I could find it and learn more about it's history, but no luck... Maybe some of you guys has seen this one before and can help more info on it?

That is one hell of a first bass!

3 things:
-Cant help you because I've never seen it before.
-Please tell me you didnt lay that bass on the concrete for pics. Please.
-If you realize bass isnt for you, I got dibs.

 

[Morten_B]

Don't worry: I did NOT lay it on the concrete..! It's in amazingly good condition and I intend to keep it that way for a long time...

Yes, it's a very, very nice bass for a first bass, and I'm hoping that I will keep it always.

 

[staindbass]

thats nice, i usually dont like black basses, that one is sweet ! one more pic of mine, someone wanted to see a cherry burst with matching headstock.

 

[staindbass]

your first bass? wow. since it was your first i wont try to pry it from your hands with trades
