wateroftyne Posted Tuesday at 19:53 Posted Tuesday at 19:53 (edited) Continuing my post-midlife crisis 'straying from Precisions' period, I couldn't resist this absolute stunner over the weekend. Just... look at it. It's a 1998 model, and was actually the L-2000 they used in the catalogue that year. A couple of honest dings here an there, but otherwise spot-on. I'll be gigging it on Friday.

Doctor J Posted Tuesday at 19:58 Posted Tuesday at 19:58 Probably my favourite bass of all, tonally, and that one is quite the looker. Well done. Quote
80Hz Posted Tuesday at 20:07 Posted Tuesday at 20:07 Oh my goodness that birds eye maple! Your photos show this off really well. I saw the listing and was tempted myself. Let us know how the gig goes 😀 Quote
Sean Posted Tuesday at 21:04 Posted Tuesday at 21:04 That was for sale about 4 miles from me. I think that if the seller's photos had been half as good as yours, it would have sold fast. I had no idea the figuring was that good. It's a stunner. Quote
gjones Posted Tuesday at 21:52 Posted Tuesday at 21:52 I have an L2500 Tribute and it is the most versatile bass I've ever played. Enjoy the gig. Quote
kwmlondon Posted Tuesday at 22:23 Posted Tuesday at 22:23 Yowsahhhh!!!! That’s some tasty wood… Quote
jd56hawk Posted Tuesday at 23:12 Posted Tuesday at 23:12 (edited) I had to sell seven basses last year, but I just couldn't part with my L2000. You bought something special there. Edited Tuesday at 23:13 by jd56hawk Quote
madshadows Posted 17 hours ago Posted 17 hours ago Damn that's a beauty, congratulations John 😎 Quote
BigRedX Posted 17 hours ago Posted 17 hours ago What does the binding do around the forearm contour? Quote
HeadlessBassist Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago That is certainly a looker, WoT. Congrats on a stunning bass (with an interesting history, too!) Quote
BassApprentice Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago I miss my 80's L2000 terribly. Was silly of me to sell it but that's life. It's baffling that G&L don't seem fussed about being in the UK market these days. Fantastic basses that offer something quite different from other brands and pretty competitive prices still. Maybe I'll pick up another in the future, but enjoy yours! It looks fantastic. 1 Quote
Rodders Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago Look at that neck! Lovely. I have a Trib M2000 that I like but still getting used to, a Precision man usually like yourself @wateroftyne Quote
machinehead Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago What a stunning looking bass! These are in the top 3 of my favourite sounding bass guitars. Enjoy it. (I know you will.) Frank. Quote
