G&L TRIBUTE Club #1

[jfh2424]

Hey guys (and gals), here is the place to show off your Tribbys and share info about them. Indonesian? Korean? It's all good.

I will give numbers for those who want them. I will be #1. Here is my SB-2 Trib, just love this bass. I bought this from fellow TBer GaryLC who got it from fellow TBer CraigB. It may have also gone through a few other hands. Now for the porn:

Here is a youtube link to this bass where you can actually here it.

I owned a G&L L2000 Tribute. I really dug it but could not get on with the wider neck so I sold it. But otherwise, I would have kept it as it sounded just as good as my USA L2000s.

I just recently bought another Korean SB-2 Tribute. Once again, I got it from GaryLC who got it from CraigB. As you can tell, I really dig the first generation SB-2 Tribbys.

Shweet. I'm seriously GASing for a L2500 Tribute in either Walnut or maybe Blueburst. Mmm, sexy!

Sideshow Al, is that a Trib? I can't tell from the headstock.

I want! I'm going to come to your house and lick the back of the neck and the controls. Still want it?

Yep. Indonesian. Been abroad for a year, looking forward to playing her again when I'm back in the UK.

Umm...yes, but now with restraining orders.

I got a great deal on this one...$300 off the normal street price. I think the online retailer had made a mistake in their ad and i just happened to stumble into it and ordered at exactly the right time. Another TB'er tried to get them to sell him one on the following Monday and was told they couldn't sell it for that price and that they never had.

I wasn't sure i like the thick neck when I first tried the L2500 Trib out in a local store, but I'm unlikely to ever get rid if it now. Just so easy on the hands to play this fattie.

Bass is solid, but not heavy. Just made my first minor adjustment to the trussrod in 14 months of ownership.

2003 Korean. It's near perfect. I even love the wide neck, it feels so comfortable.

 

[jfh2424]

Wow, there are no other Tribute owners who want to play?

Mine looks exactly like that!

 

[oldrookie]

Mine looks exactly like that!

Trib L2k was my first serious bass. I only sold it to pay for the L2.5k shown above.

Love both of them, but could only afford one.

MIne just arrived today, is a L2500 Tribute in blueburst....AWSOME...I´ll post pic later as now I have any.

 

[drewfx]

Alright I'll play. Here's my 2008 L2500:

 

[mmbongo]

I'll play. For now anyway, as I think I'll be selling this one soon to fund a 5er with 19mm spacing.

I got this L2500 in probably 2004 not long after they came out with the Tributes. It's just a wonderful thing, I only wish it had wider spacing. I wont ask for a number since I might not have it much longer, just wanted to share

 

[ninerfan]

Recently picked up a L2500 in black for $200! Enjoying it more and more every day!

How about a lefty? Here's my '07 L2000 Tribby. Dig that crazy woodgrain!:
