G&L Club Part 7

My Tribute JB just arrived (Musician's Friend Stupid Deal of the Day for only $299). What a great bass for the money. Plays nice, and sounds excellent. G&L's quality coming out of Indonesia is really top notch.

Picked up a 1997 USA L-2000 yesterday. This is my first G&L, I've got a couple Fenders and Stingrays, never really considered a G&L until I played it at the store, this thing is sweet! Such an underrated brand! I had to clean up the fret ends a little bit with a file and clean out the output jack with some Deoxit. There's some chips and dents here and there but otherwise in great shape for a 24 year old instrument. Can't believe the value of these. This is my first but definitely not my last.

Congrats, that's a really nice one! I sold that to a friend years ago when his bass got stolen. Really great neck and not too heavy, very solid tone.
Thanks! Yea it's really light, which I wasn't expecting. I wasn't in the market for a new bass but after playing it in the store and thinking about it for a day I had to have it. Happens way too often when I go by Atomic, haha.
 
Decided to keep my LB100,after receiving good report on my health issues I was experiencing,No Cancer! Praise God,from whom all blessings flow! I have two of my favorite basses,and plan on holding on to them. Thankful for the G&L Club,lot of knowledge,and good information here.View attachment 4136889 View attachment 4136890

Great looking basses, but even better is the positive news on the health front. C has taken allot of family members on both my wife’s family & my own. She’s had 3 surgeries herself as well. Scary stuff, it’s truly great when you can dodge that bullet.
