  1. Can only comment on Tribute SB-2 from a few years back but can confirm what you're thinking - Jazz nut width (38mm) but a generous thickness back to front. For everything else - I'd go take a look at the G&L website. Trouble with USA G&Ls is that the neck could be any of a number of profiles on the built to order models. The Fullerton Deluxe models are more rigidly defined. Again, the G&L website will explain all, including all the neck options.
  2. That was quick! Also that's made my mind up, going to play mine tonight at the gig. Enjoy!
  3. Eh, buy what fits in the big hole (and your budget) and fill/redrill as needed - it's not that big a deal of a job.
  4. It is, and I stand by it. Another addition to the swear filter is it, then?
  5. That does it, I'm on a mission to get a signature bass now. I just want to win at something, and I'm obscure AF.
  6. Nice colour, but too short for me...
  7. Currently - BB434M
  8. I don't feel that way. My CLF L-1000 is a fantastic bass which is a treat to play. My Tribute LB-100 is no slouch, and is definitely handy to take to (perceived) rougher gigs or unfamiliar places but it's not superior to the wunkay. It's the little things - the feel of the neck, how the pots turn, the smoothness of the tuners. No, the wunkay isn't 4-5 times better than the Tribute LB-100, but it is better. If it wasn't, I think I'd sell it in disgust.
  9. Specs are wrong - mine measures 43mm (1.69"). Have I helped?
  10. No, I can't make that one either. Not having much luck
  11. It's maybe only on the top because it's a poplar body with an ash top and they want to disguise that fact by making the back solid black.
  12. So... white then?
  13. First one is indoors, second one is outdoors. Either way, it's hard to photograph, but versus the stock photos, I'd say it appears greener than that most of the time I look at it. It's noticeably far from Lake Placid Blue etc.
  14. The emerald blue varies depending on the light - it's more blue in natural light and greener in artificial light. I guess the clue's in the name
  15. It's a fantastic bass at RRP, mine was £350 when I bought it and I thought I was stealing it at that price. £300 is a no-brainer. Which finish are you fancying?
  16. The website says 1.75" but I just measured mine and it's not quite that wide, I make it 43mm (1.69"), not 44.5mm. Splitting hairs, perhaps, and Jazz neck it decidedly is not, but thought I'd clarify.
  17. Also, I'm willing to bet that none of these reviewers have the slightest statistical basis upon which to base any of their speculation about QC. My eyes roll every time. By their logic - mine is great, ergo they're all great!
  18. Mine's great. An emerald blue one I bought in December 2021. Gigged it several times and it's been good as gold. Only negative was the rather ineffectual shielding - I got in there with the slug tape and sorted it out. Now that you've got me talking about it, I'm going to take it to my next gig on Saturday, so thanks for bringing it up
  19. My Reverend Triad continues to please me greatly.
  20. Can I borrow your rock please?
  21. As I said, "before yet another dogpile on the three point bridge gets going..." - not really getting at you and only quoting you for context, just steeling myself for the inevitable...
