Good morning all
If someone is handing out G&L club numbers I'll take one. Also people have have Tribi's how do they stack up againsrt USA models? Chef? I saw a BABP 2500 on Ebay for $1600 and did not pull the triger. It looked like yours I'm sorry I didn't cause it's always easier to ask for forgiveness then permission.
Have a great day all!

I didn't buy my BABP2500 off ebay, and I wouldn't have given that much for it.

The tribs have different tuners, different pots and are otherwise about the same.
I don't know if they're plek'd like the us models, but the two i've had were nice for the pricepoint. They were both heavy.

Thanks for the comments. I will have to check on the side dot markers. As far as I recall, I did not actually notice any side markers!

I am still pondering what strings to put on. The flats don't work, I had at some point cut the ends too short and they won't hold tension on a bass with all tuners on one side...

I have to say, I am a bit of a second-class ebayer, as many sellers don't ship outside the u.S. and the selection here is so scarce. I have to get what I can get. Next week, a 1974 Telecaster Bass...

Peace & Love

Would you guys recommend having an official G&L dealer do the single coil mod? Or can any guitar tech with half a brain + the schematics figure it out?

I'm about to buy the 3-position on-on-on switch to replace the series/parallel switch so I can get outer single coils. But I don't want somebody to mess up my bass :-(

I don't think we have any "official G&L" dealers here in Vermont.

in talking to the G&L Tech in GB he said we have to order a 4 pos switch to make the k mod. I'm just going by what he said yesterday. I don't know, that's why he is doing it not me LOL.
I would think a good Tech who can read the schematics should be able to do it.
Question is do you trust him?

If I may ask, what circuit did you give your tech to use? Also, who/what is GB?

Question is do you trust him?

No. The question is, do YOU trust him.

First gig with the Quarter Pounders in the sunburst JB2 last night. RAWR!!!! I love my sound! The bass looks like a P, and thinks it's a P, but has some J subtleties. Me likey.

Of course, the honey QMT JB2 shall be kept stock, electronically, for studio dates, and occasions when a pure J-bass sound is needed. I can always EQ in more low mids, if I need to.
