I just would like everyone to know that I'm officially in love with my G&L.... I took my L-1505 on a week mini-tour with one of my bands.. and the baby never went out of tune... even with my constant battering.. never broke a string (a first for me)... I didn't carry a back up... and didn't need it.... .I'm gonna buy another one.. or trade in my Lakland 5 for 2 or 3 more of them
I was looking at the headstock design on their 5 string, the one with a 2 on the model number. Good design, the tuning machines are way past the nut.
The one time I've restrung it, I had to use extra long string, probably because of the through body design.... that thing is a workhorse!
