Nice L2000 - I have three all maple Fender (P & 2 J's) neck basses, my '64 II which is mahogany/rosewood, one maple/ebony necked Jazz bass and the rest are maple/rosewood. My custom basses (for sale) mostly have ebony fb's/maple & one walnut/ebony. They are all pretty different basses and they all sound different so it would be hard to compare. The maple/ebony fb Jazz bass is active, so again - hard to compare with a passive J.

Thanks. It's unique with only 24 made. Has the K switch which allows for single coil option on the pickups. Sounds very much like you would think a G&L Jazz would sound. The finish and fretboard was also unique to those. There were a few custom black bursts, but they were generally just black on the back and had no burst. That sounds weird....

I just use that rig to hold my drinks :)

seriously..It is a smoking rig. Great combo.
Tons of headroom and tone for days.

Oh man, I made that mistake once - I set an over-priced scotch on my amp and started our set. By mid song it shimmied off the amp and went crashing to the stage-floor. Never again... :rollno:

The broken scotch-glass can be seen on the floor in the center of my cab...

I prefer dark, but Reese's darks are hard to find. I mostly see them in miniatures.

Not Reese's, but my other fave is "Milky Way Midnight". Same as a "Milky Way" but with dark chocolate. If yer old enuff, you might remember them as "Forever Yours"-same thing.

Well, I'm pretty much a chocolate addict in general - to the point of pissing my Mom off when I was a kid, by eating her baking chocolate whenever I got the chance...:rolleyes:
But, if I have a choice? Yeah, dark chocolate is definitely the way to go. And of all the dark chocolate I've ever eaten (and, in 73 years, I've eaten a lot of it)? Cadbury's Bourneville dark chocolate, hands down...:whistle:
