G&L TRIBUTE Club #1

Here's my Tribute L-2500:

We have similar taste in motorcycles as well.

I loved my old FJR, but ended up riding it so hard that I beveled the mufflers. Went with a sportier mount.

I got flooded in the great Nashville flood and lost my sport bike. I now have a cheapo Kawasaki Versys that sits in the same room as the basses. It's immediately behind me as I took that picture. I keep all my toys in my "man cave". Nice room, but the acoustics stink...all concrete with big metal tool boxes filled with tools.

Play hard.....ride harder! :)

Been without a bike for several years (tried to arrive at my destination before my bike did a few years and made the wife nervous,) but am working hard to get back into it.

Versys is on my short list...or a Sprint GT...or an F800St...or a moped..sheesh, I want some wheels.
 
I'm a big G&L fan and think the Tribs are a great value. I currently have two.

The Trib SB2 has been modified with a neck humbucker (DiMarzio Will Power neck) after I tried a Yamaha BB714BS and loved the tones but not the ergonomics. Controls are vol/vol/vol with a master tone and a tone cut switch that applies only to the neck humbucker. Great tones and lots of fun to play - big, woolly mudbucker tone when desired (with the tone cut switch).

The Trib L-2000 has a Trib JB2 neck on it since I only like narrow G&L necks.

I bought a L2000 in august of this year. Korean made, sunburst finish with rosewood.
It took me a while to adjust to the difference between the Fender Jazz that I have been playing forever and this beast. Now i pick up that jazz and in a few moments i am looking for my Trib. I am a convert!
