GreeneKing Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Here's a few photos of my recent impulse driven purchase fuelled by a price tag of £349. 3 piece ash body and weighs in at 9.4lbs. Doesn't seem that heavy Really pleased I jumped at it.

BassBus Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I think you're allowed impulse buys when they are that good. Looks in great nick. How old is it? Well done, good buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Nice natural looking bass. I've never tried one, what's it like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 It's brand spankin' and quite a revelation being tonally varied and very versatile. No weak G strings or output here. I've fancied a try on one for a while and natural would have been my choice so positives all round really. I'd recommend having a go on one if you get a chance.

Machines Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I think G&L's don't get the credit they deserve and seem to lack a bit of kudos. It's a great shame as I feel it was one of Fender's ultimate tone machines (above the Jazz and Precision). Bargain ? Oh yes. I'd have snapped it up too.

GreeneKing Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 I've just got in from band practice, a really good session and the Tribby was impressive to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Lovely looking bass Peter! Must admit that I've always fancied one of the L2500s myself and these pictures of yours are fuelling that GAS! I had the opportunity to play a L2500 Tribute series alongside a USA model at the SE Bass Bash 2 years ago and the difference was minimal as far as I could tell.. Very good value basses IMO.
