G&L Club Part 7

[joebar]

Ah, there you said the password to get into the club...

in fact, I was thinking custom order fretless.
since my L2500 is a known quantity, I figure a tricked out one to my specs could only be pure bliss.
I'm thinking unlined fretless 5 L1505

I just got a new SB-1:

Beauty, one of the nicest looking ones I've seen. Grats.

What neck is on that badboy?

 

[bhunt1]

Thanks. It is the 1 5/8" nut 9.5" radius neck a little more chunky than my '96 SB-1 I like the feel and light tint satin finish is nice.

 

[Runlikegregg]

Yes that is what someone else said. Lb is an Anico and the SB I'd a Humbucker.
I no longer have the SB1 I traded it for a Genz Benz Contour and cash to a TB member in Chicago

yeah sorry, I had thought i was on the most recent page, it wasn't until i posted the reply that I saw it was years old. ha ha ha.

And here it is, my new G&L SB-2 Tribute. Saturday will be the first chance to test it plugged.

Just bought a used SB-2 Tribute from a person living in another city for an incredible amount of $220. Will have to wait for another two weeks because both the ex-owner and I happen to be going to Moscow at that time so we can skip the shipping hassles. Since the price was unusually low for Russia, I had to hire a local person there to thoroughly check the condition of the instrument, which was apparently OK (save for the need for a setup). Can't wait to get my hands on it—for a long time I've been curious about SB-2, and now the time has come to check it out, albeit in the form of a Tribute model.

 

[TinIndian]

Wow! That's sweet!

 

[jfh2424]

Hey Temcat!

I'll give you $230 for it...

Hey Temcat!

Well, if I decide I don't like it, I might just accept your offer, provided that you also pay the shipping company to bring it from St. Petersburg, Russia to where you live ;-)

 

[jfh2424]

Lol, Temcat. One good joke deserves another!

Enjoy your bass, man!

John

Just gigged my new SB-2 Tribute. What I can say - wow. I can't find any flaw with this bass. Many useful tones obtained by adjusting the two volumes, lots of punch and clarity, strong signal, distinct response to right-hand position (down to burpy Jazz tones when plucking near the bridge). Bandmates loved it, too. All in all, seems like I've been incredibly lucky with this purchase.

 

[A-Ro]

I'm in! I got a crazy good deal on my new JB-2 Tribute!

I want.

I love the return to the 4+1 headstock. The 3+2 headstock looks like an elephant seal face.

 

[jcburn]

Man I hate the 3+2, it is the sole reason I don't own an L2500. Bring on the 4+1, at least as an option.

 

[Wamba]

To each their own, I guess... I love the way the 3+2 looks and functions!

Me too! I LOVE that color.

Crappy pics, but I recently upgraded from my beginner Yamaha bass to a G&L Tribute L2000. Dat Finish!

Huh I like the 3x3 headstock myself. The 4x1 seems crowded to me?

Yes, bring it back (20 years, enough is enough!)

 

[SlugThrower]

I have both 3+2 and 4+1 headstocks, but I just prefer the 4+1. That won't stop me from purchasing more g&l 3+2 basses, though.
