Yep, went to a keen Czech bassist a year or so ago I'm afraid!

Now to be found on eBay...

Sir, A PM is flying your way right about now

[quote name='ukbassboy' post='727728' date='Jan 28 2010, 04:01 PM']I´d be all over this if it had a post EQ out.[/quote] Am I missing something? The Mark Bass website suggests that "the balanced XLR output on the LMK is POST-EQ and cannot be modified!"

Now down to £625 - but make me an offer! Go on... Last drop before it goes on theBay in the next couple of days I suspect.

If only the SB-2 was the one with a maple 'board!

And let's have a price drop to £695... Or just hit me with an offer! Any offer. All offers.

*ahem* BUMP *ahem*

Just thought I'd say I've looked into courier-ing it and am happy to. Should cost £20-25ish.

[quote name='lowfer' post='718767' date='Jan 20 2010, 10:02 AM']Hey Mansfield can you give me an idea of how this compares to a fender jazz, i.e tone, neck, build etc etc cheers Lowfer[/quote] Yo Lowfer, I'd say it compares very favourably with a Fender Jazz... build quality is second to none, as with all G&Ls. You couldn't accuse G&L of taking any shortcuts there. Tone-wise, the pickups are very transparent, very airy - it's a very clear-sounding bass, and I've heard some criticism that the pickups might even be too 'honest.' With some fiddling, though, it can give out more meat if needed. As for the neck, afraid I can't offer an amazing comparison with a Fender J here, only having limited experience playing one - the width's 1.5" at the nut, and in my entirely personal opinion I'd say the general feel of the neck is mid-heavy (as in it's not the thinnest neck I've played, but it's not P-bass wide). Have I now just completely confused everything? Any more questions, fire away! Ta, Rob

Price dropped to £625 - or just make me an offer!! Hi everyone, After much indecision on my part I'm offering up for sale my US-made (i.e. not Tribute) G&L JB-2... It's G&L's first attempt at a version of a Jazz, and has the body of the L-2000 (unlike the new, imaginatively named, JBs). It's in rather eye-catching silver flake, with a rosewood 'board. Passive electronics. It's pretty much in perfect condition, just a couple of small marks on the headstock that you can only see in certain lights (from string changes, I'm guessing). Comes with the original G&L case, slightly worn as expected but all working fine. Selling as I've just acquired, alongside my solid ASAT, a semi-hollow ASAT and a new compact rig - so this has to shift! Due to these new purchases, I'm really looking for cash rather than trades on the JB-2... As I've got to name a price, I'll say £625, but feel free to get in touch with offers!! I'm based in Oxford, and am in London semi-regularly so that's also an option. Alternatively, after looking into it, I'm happy to courier it (bass wrapped in bubble wrap, in hard case wrapped in cardboard). Should be £20-25 extra... Do enjoy the (admittedly somewhat poor) photos...

And now a price drop. And another - last one before it goes on eBay! Now no trades I'm afraid - got a compact rig sorted now!

How portable are these things? Looking to get myself a portable rig, such as a lightweight 2x10 or 1x12 plus sling-over-the-shoulder head; I get the impression these Edens, while fairly small, are still pretty heavy? Or am I just being hilariously misled...? Rob
