andydye Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) Bought this recently from oldslapper, this is a USA G&L, a real one, noticeably better than the tribute ones (nice as they are!), it's lovely but doesn't do a different enough job from my Ray5 to warrant it being a keeper...the sound is fat and strong, the Ernie Ball flats on it don't compromise any of the available top end, it still slaps really well! Black with Rosewood fingerboard, single humbucking pickup, significantly more output than Musicman equivalent (had to back of preamp gain a couple of notches!)... One very very minor ding on the end of the headstock (barely noticeable - more of a slight indentation, you can only spot it by running your finger over it) and one mark in the finish on the upper horn. Nothing whatsoever to affect sound or playability. The balance is superb as usual from G&L, the neck is fantastic to play (nice and fast), played it at one practice and really enjoyed it, as I said before though it just doesn't sound different enough from my Ray5...
