G&L JB-2 average weight?

[nicopiano]

JB-2 owner, what is the weight of your bass?

I'm thinking about ordering one, but I really don't want a bass that is on the heavy side.

Thanks.

Mine was nice and light: 8.15 lbs.

Is it a Tribute or a USA?

Does Sweetwater sell them? They list exact weights of each bass, and they don't fudge numbers like some other dealers do.

sweetwater does not handle G&L

Bass Place in Peoria, Az list weights and Dennis is very responsive by e-mail
They're a great G&L dealer.

I had a USA model....fretless. It was very light. I'd guess 8 lbs.

Thank you!

Mine was a USA, I have no idea how that would correlate to an Indonesian made one.

My Tribby is 8.8 lbs, including a light canvas (?) straP. It's the model with a maple fretboard. It sounds like an excellent Jazz Bass. Fretwork is very good and I felt compfy with it zt thr first moment. It's my n° 1. I prefer it to my all original 73 JB.

My USA JB-2 is just under 8 lbs....super light and just a wonderful instrument
