music-man Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 G&L P No idea if it's real (only three neck bolts?), but man, I dig that finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJR Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Ya...cool finish. Gonna check some trusted sources for validity. ....for 399 no reserve...how bad can it be ?? PJR 5CentMary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumpelstiltskin. Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 while not bad, that price isn't incredible. G&L still makes p-basses -- they're called the SB-1. i know a guy who had one in trans-green. it was pretty sweet. i'd be interested, but not incredibly. robb. because i like people.

SteveC Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I've had a few G&L basses. They are pretty nice. That one seems to be real. It is a very cool finish. I also likethe headstock. Maybe a nice alternative to the "traditional" Fender P-bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DONUT Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Yeah,the older ones had 3 neck bolts. I like the bowling ball finish. I do NOT like the white pickups. It would look pretty strange with a black pearloid guard,wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billhw13 Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 those are excellent basses! and btw, the swirl finishes are discontinued..it's a love 'em or hate 'em sort of thing with that finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lug Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Great basses and you are pratically guaranteed excellent build quality. Everyone I know who has owned one (including myself, an L2000) swears by the quality level G&L maintains. You can stop now -jeremyc STOP QUOTING EVERY THING I SAY!!! -Bass_god_offspring lug, you should add that statement to you signature.-Tenstrum I'm not sure any argument can top lug's. - Sweet Willie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saxofunk Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 A local dealer has an L-100 hanging on the wall, it's actually new condition, old stock. It's finished in a dark transparent red, with white pick guard. Several months ago I asked about it and IIRC they quoted $750 w/ hard case. Tempting, but I want the J pickup so I'll hang on until I can justify an SB-2 or that Conklin Rocco-what's his name thingy that I keep posting pictures of... Of course, the Rocco doesn't appear to be in production yet, so I'll have to save more bones and drive 3 hours to discuss the matter with Mr Conklin personally. Back to the point. Nah, it's too late for that... someone else will have to bring me back to the topic. - Matt W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actrade Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 On a lark, I bid $399 for this bass and lo' and behold, I was the only bid and won it! I have a G&L L-2500 already and really like it, so for $399, I don't think I'll go too far wrong with this one. Thanks for the tip, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
