I bought one of the JB basses from Guitar Guitar a couple of weeks back. Weighed it at 4.5kg/9.9lb. It has a different tone from the JB-2 with the same pickups and controls and the bridge pickup is closer to the bridge on the sunburst JB (60s vs 70s?) I am a late convert to black blocks and binding on a maple neck but it looks great with the sunburst and black pickguard. My one has some unusually heavy figuring in the ash which I’m not 100% sure about on a burst finish but that aside I can’t fault the bass. It and an LB-100 will be my gigging pair when (if) everything returns to normal.

Just bought Gerry’s G&L Tribute Kiloton from him. Gerry took my Zoom MS60B stompbox in part exchange. Straightforward meet up and deal done. As usual top fella to deal with🙂 I have now had three Tributes from Gerry and it’s fast becoming the norm for his G&L’s to head south thirty miles down the coast to me.

Looks great in black. I have the same in white with a maple board. It has a great neck, is very light, very ergonomic and like the OP said, it seems to sit in a mix without any trouble. The only thing I could see being an issue for someone looking for a nice P bass or derivative is the nut width. It’s somewhere between a P and a J. Personally I love it and my G&L LB-100, also with the split humbucker, with a more traditional nut width, feels like a bit of a cricket bat by comparison.

Picked up a pair of Tributes in the last week. Jezzaboy sold me his LB-100 and and I bought the sunburst JB from Guitar Guitar. The third bass is my sonic blue Tribute JB-2.

Alessandro bought my G&L Tribute JB-2 off me a few weeks back. Paid promptly and arranged pick up, letting me know when it had arrived. Thanks Alessandro for an easy deal. Cheers!

Forgot to post up that David bought my USA Ovation Elite bass a couple of months back. Seamless transaction with no issues. I knew it would be like this as I have bought and traded with him a couple of times before. David is a gent and a credit to this forum

Just bought Gerry’s G&L Tribute LB-100 Bass. We had a socially distanced chat about all things bass while doing the handover. Have bought, sold and traded with Gerry a few times before so knew the bass would be exactly as described and the banter would be good. The guy is an absolute gent and a credit to this forum. The bass is superb btw. Thanks again!

Never owned a Cort before, but since the start of this year I now have a couple of their Jazz basses - a GB99F and a GB75JH. Both are great lookers/players, are set up brilliantly well to my liking, and can hold their own against other more expensive instruments I own. The sunburst GB99 now has a Roland GK3B pickup for synth/modelling duties and gets played a lordly amount. The five not so much but that’s got more to do with the number of strings and not the guitar itself.

Another vote for the G&L L-1500. The one I had was lairy!! I have owned a few Stingrays and briefly owned a Wal Pro IIe and a Thumb 4 neck thru a long time ago. I don’t remember much about the Wal and tbh, I couldn’t really pick between the Ray and the Thumb as they sound very different. But I do recall that my Thumb was more aggressive sounding than the Streamer Stage 1 that preceded it and I’ve always found USA Sterlings more aggressive sounding than Stingrays (Ceramic magnets vs Alnico?)

I have the BTC circuit paired with the EMG40DC pickups in my recently acquired G&L L5500. I love the clear and focused sound but the combination of pups and preamp is very unlike any other G&L I ever owned or played and reminds me a lot of the Spector Euro basses I owned a decade ago.

Bought a Boss VF-1 half rack multi FX from Peter at a great price. Great bit of kit and in excellent condition too. Peter was very helpful throughout and a pleasure to deal with. I have done a trade deal with Peter previously and this one went exactly the same ie without a hitch.Peter is a stand up guy and a credit to Basschat. thanks once again! Keir
