G&L Club Part 7

Hmm, I just found this... G&L Fullerton Deluxe L-2000 Bass Guitar - Ruby Red Metallic

I can't find anything from G&L about it. I hope the USA L series doesn't become CS only.

I think as long as G&L offers a Fullerton Deluxe line, the L2000 will be part of it. Of course that's a wild guess by someone who knows nothing about it, so take it for what it's worth.

Firstly, this may be just G&L changing over the finish specs for the Fullerton Deluxe models.

Secondly, Sweetwater are still listing the CLF Research versions of the L this and L that

I owned an Andromeda bass before it was cool. Us old timers called it Holoflake Black back then (Peavey GV that I bought new in 2002 and still own).

Noting that I freely admit the color is cooler with MFD Pickups.

Wow that's cool, it looks identical to the G&L Andromeda !! Nice bass

There is also a sonic blue LB 100 with matching headstock I couldn't quite get into the photo.

I hope so. I like the ruby red metallic, but I wouldn't be sad to see the pearl grey go. On this line, I still don't see why they dropped vintage white from the JB finishes and kept macha green. Horses for courses, I guess.

This is indeed what's going on. New finishes for 2023 are in production now but haven't hit the streets yet.

Hey peeps, not to distract you from perusing those finish options, but have any of you owned/played a passive Lakland JB, and want to maybe weigh in on how it compares to a G&L JB?

I just shipped one of the CLF L-1000's in Midnight Blue Metallic to a customer yesterday, so they are starting to leave the factory as I type.

Between the color selections and pricing…

 

[Ricky Rioli]

Note that that there is now a Fullerton Deluxe SB-2. Which kinda had to do after pushing the BTO prices above the FDs

Lakland Skyline or USA?
