mikeycrikey Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I've got the pink G&L Tribute JB2. It's very light. Really nice neck. Typical jazz width but thicker front to back. The neck almost looks like it's untreated but has a very light finish applied to it. It sounds great with both pickups on full. It has plenty of other tonal options but the traditional both pickups on full works really well for me. Love the P style body shape. It's very comfortable to play and balances well. The pink finish is very pink and shiny. Almost wished I had picked a different colour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking at the sonic Blue one at Andertons which looks white in the Photo but has a Rosewood Fingerboard, i like the idea of the P bass type body as well as i find that the traditional offset type body which seems to be the norm with J basses a little too big for my body if you know what I mean, .anyway great reply thanks.

mikeycrikey Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I know exactly what you mean about the body shape. That's why I was so drawn to the G&L. With the current deal on Offer at Andertons you probably won't find a better playing, sounding bass anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrycreed Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) How would these compare to the G&L tribute P, apart from the pickup differences? I should have cut to the chase ages ago and got a G&L tribute! Edited April 19, 2023 by barrycreed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from pickups and controls, the neck width is different (wider nut on the LB-100 - 43mm plays 38mm). JB-2 has no pickguard, LB-100 has one.
