A few shots from when I restrung this recently. Rotosound Nickels for the matching blue silks 😁 Note the top drawer control cavity, CTS pots, Orange Drop capacitor, shielded etc. Also no unsightly routes under the pick guard! I'm open to offers on this, I have FAR too many basses at the moment.

Thanks for the comments, chaps. I think it's worth noting that these older G&L basses seem to be a cut above the modern "Standard" and "Deluxe" models offered by G&L. I played a few examples in Guitar Guitar in Camden a couple of years ago and was not very impressed. The finishing and attention to detail were nowhere near as good as this JB2.

I'd only that Enfield had frets 🤔 😁 Hope you're good mate.

Thanks, my photos don't do it justice.

Thanks guys, it's a lovely thing.

Now £695! 2003 G&L USA JB2 in trans vintage white finish with vintage gloss finished maple neck. This bass is lightweight (8.4lb) and sounds thick and punchy with the Nordstrand NJ4SV pickups. These are classically voiced split coil hum cancelling pickups that retain the quintessential Jazz bass tone while eliminating single coil hum! It has been well gigged and has signs of general wear and tear, with some buckle rash on the back and a dink on the underside of the lower horn, but is in good condition overall. It comes with the original G&L Flightcase.

1987 German Hofner 500/1 up for grabs. It has a glorious nitro finish which has various signs of use, cracks and grazing (especially on the back of the neck) but feels and looks awesome. It had a very high action when I received it due to the Hofner "feature" of the ebony bridge being too high, and only effectively allowing you to raise the action even further! With it being a vintage bass I didn't want to modify the original bridge, so I sourced a brand new original Hofner bridge assembly and had it professionally milled down to allow a much lower action. The result is the easiest playing Hofner I've ever encountered! Note the original bridge is included in the sale, along with the correct truss rod tool and the original Hofner flight case. It's strung with a lovely set of Pyramid Gold flats, as is right and proper. It sounds wonderful.

Tough crowd! This is now on hold.

Now £575

I found this on their website -

Agreed, a lot of bass for the money.

Thanks, it's a beauty.

It also comes with the Nordy Mute.

Thanks guys, it's a bit of a mystery why this is still here 🤔

A better jazz bass does not exist at this price!

Also available from Andertons with a metal grille 🤑 https://www.andertons.co.uk/gallien-krueger-legacy-115-800-watt-bass-combo

This is a great combo that is fully featured, lightweight and extremely capable. I no longer need this much power so it's up for grabs. Comes with the original foot switch and a padded Hotcovers cover. Manufacturers blurb- Gallien Krueger's Legacy Series is the culmination of fifty years of design, innovation and industry experience. Building on the foundation laid by GK's legendary 800RB in 1980, the Legacy Series captures that same aesthetic whilst bringing its own unique character to the table. The Gallien Krueger Legacy 115 is a high-powered bass amp combo that's ready for small-to-medium sized gigs, the home studio, and everything in between! Comprehensive I/O — All Legacy combos come with a complete patch bay. The balanced DI has selectable pre/post and ground lift switches, the headphones and aux in are 1/8" jacks to accommodate the most common products, and there are tuner and send/return jacks for your pedals too! Trim Control — Use this to get the best level match between your instrument and the Legacy. When this is adjusted correctly, the clip light will only flash occasionally to indicate that you have the perfect setup. Modern Power Amp — Legacy combos use the latest available digital power amps with switch-mode supplies. These deliver a punchy, driving sound at a fraction of the weight and power consumption of analogue power systems. They are safe down to 2 Ohms and operate from 100V to 240V mains. Lightweight Construction — Enclosures are made from plywood, with ample bracing to form a robust box. The interior is covered with damping material to absorb high frequencies from the rear of the speaker, which prevents them from coming out the port and interfering with the high frequencies from the front of the speaker. Neodymium Speaker — Legacy combos incorporate neodymium woofers designed and manufactured by GK, renowned for their feather-light weight without sacrificing performance or "punchiness". Cooling System — Legacy combos are cooled using two fans that are temperature controlled. At low temperatures the fans are off, as the amplifier temperature rises the fans come on slowly and run faster the warmer it gets. Status Indicators — Tell you if there is a shorted output (oc) or overheated (ot) condition. Also, the standby indicator (stby) shows white when the power is off; indicating the mains supply is good. If the input is overdriven, the clip indicator will flash red. Universal Power — Legacy combos operate from 100V to 240V, 50/60Hz mains, so you can take them anywhere in the world and simply plug in. No converters or special supplies required! Specifications Speaker: 1x15" Neodymium Output Power 400W Internal (8Ω) 800W with 8Ω Extension 800W with 4Ω Extension Input Section Maximum Input Level: 0.6V rms Input Impedance: 1M Ohms Direct Output Impedance: 500 Ohms Aux-in Input Impedance: 100K Ohms Equalizer Bass: +/-10dB@60Hz Lo-Mid: +6dB/-10dB@250Hz Hi-Mid: +6dB/-10dB@1KHz Treble: +/-14dB @ 7KHz Voicing Filters Contour: +2dB@50Hz/-10dB@500Hz/+3dB@7KHz Dimensions & Weight Dimensions (H x W x D): 24.60“ x 19.12” x 14.70" Weight: 39.2 lbs

Ha, I know what you mean. It felt pretty alien to me initially but after a short adjustment period it makes total sense. Now it feels odd going back to 34" scale!

Open to offers.

£260?

No thanks, I'm sorted for effects.
