G&L basses aren't heavy at all. G&L stands for Graceful and Light.The new G&L Kiloton bass is very appropriately named. It is a H E A V Y bass.

The truth about the P-Bass.
When Leo named the P-Bass he didn't have "precision" in mind. He was a huge Punk Rock fan, so P-Bass actually means Punk Bass, like J-Bass stands for Jazz Bass. As he knew a Punk Bass wouldn't sell, he came up with Precision Bass. The plan was to change the name later on, but the majority of punk rock bands already had found their way to the P-Bass, so there was no need to do so.
No, it stands for "Gropey and Litigious" , just like O&M basses stands or "Oxy and Moron".......G&L basses aren't heavy at all. G&L stands for Graceful and Light.

The EVH was originally to be called the EVH 6550, but they could not get permission from the ITA (International Tube Assoc.) to use the term so they reduced the wattage and called it the EVH 5150.
David Lee Roth left V H because of an argument with Eddie over 8As documented above by popcat, Eddie Van Halen is so self-important and narcissistic he needs a series of numerals after his name.

Back in the fifteenth century the English beat the French at the Agincourt bass lute-off due to the superior two finger picking technique, hence the hand gesture. The French objected and there were some fisticuffs.
