Andy Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 I've tried to take a couple of shots that do this bass some justice. The finish really is beautiful (and looks even better in the flesh!).

fingerz Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 This looks like my old bass! Nice to see it again, I played it lots whilst I owned it. It's a solid thing, great, even string tension, fast neck and very comfy. Highly recommend checking this out if you're looking for a zero issues modern sounding J bass. Best of luck with the sale and give it a slap from me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a fantastic bass - I personally think GB are really under-rated - the build quality, finishing and tone are up there with the very best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
