L-2000 problem

Maybe your output jack died.

 

I would take it to a tech to diagnose. When I got my L-2000 (used), the jack was faulty and would only get a signal when the plug was in just right. If your problem ends up being a faulty jack as well, try emailing G&L customer service, they sent me a new jack for free when I told them about my problem.

 

Sorry to hear the nightmare we all hate so well. One old axe pooped out on me at a little backyard bbq show when not one, but two of the tuning machines broke and of couse I also had no spare! Well fellow survivor, I never had your problem happen with the L-2000 I had, but I did step on my cord once and I assumed my bass quit until I finally tried a different one. Those things can take years of abuse, hold up great, but then part when they take one more tiny bend in a weak spot. George L's cords are awsome: they need no soldering, you just snip the length and screw it into its 1/4" ends, so you can break one and fix it faster than a busted string. Superior signal quality, too. Rule out the simple problems first and good luck with that bass.
