Details

This is a most excellent G&L Tribute M-2000 in a stunning Honey burst finish over ash with rosewood board. It is without significant cosmetic issue plays smoothly and sounds great! Nice weight too, at 8 lbs, 12.4 oz.

It will come to you well packed for a safe journey and I'll be happy to split shipping costs with you.

Likely not necessary if you’re here looking at this, but below you’ll find the narrative on G&L’s website for the USA version of this model. I don’t believe there’s a major difference between the USA and Indonesian versions in the items noted. Important to note that G&L is no longer selling a Tribute version of the M-2000.

“Three decades ago, the G&L L-2000™ bass served notice that company founder Leo Fender† was ready to disrupt the status quo. The bold, brash L-2000 has always been an exhilarating experience for players with the skill to pull it off. Now the new M-2000 and M-2500™ harness that power with a sonic palate that will surprise and delight new and die-hard G&L fans alike.

Leo’s MFD humbuckers have always been the heart of the iconic L-Series. In the all-new M-Series, these powerhouses are voiced to fully exploit a studio-quality 18v preamp system specially designed for them. With an LF442 chip, 100v poly caps, 1% metal film resistors and big, fat signal traces on the mil-spec circuit board, this preamp reveals everything the player and the instrument have to offer. And there’s even more:

  • Primary volume and pan controls to explore the full range of sounds available between the two pickups
  • 3-band EQ with peripherally placed, center-detent, reduced-diameter knobs
  • An impeccable, familiar “feel” of the instrument in the hands and on the shoulder
  • The return of the classic “C”-shape 1 5/8” neck, discontinued by G&L in the 1980s
For slapping, rolling back some highs and dialing up some lows, coupled with a mid-range boost, magnifies the intensity that Leo’s humbuckers are famous for. Need more definition for fingerstyle? Just bring up the treble and roll off the bass for a nuanced and detailed sound. Headroom? The new M-Series preamp harnesses the power of those meaty MFD humbuckers without a hint of clipping. The best tools are simple, intuitive and easy to use, and that’s exactly what you’ll find in the new M-Series package. Truly, it’s the evolution of Leo’s revolution.”

Thanks for looking and I’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Nice Bass, Nice price. I own a white one. Very under rated. The MFD's are killer and the board radius is a nice change.

Can anyone who has played both this neck and vintage describe how they compare? I love the old necks and am curious how closely they’ve been mirrored. Appreciate the profile photos from the seller….to my eye it looks pretty spot on!

I had one and found it to be vintage P bassish. BTW, this bass produces some of the pure rock tones of any bass I've ever had. The MDF pickups are truly top tier.
