USA SB-2. Isle of Man Blues Festival, 3 years ago.

My guitarist friend is pretty useless at playing by ear so I am trying to tell him which key we are in!

This was mine, it's on this very thread in fact.

It was mine too and what an instrument :)

It's a 1500, heavily customized (added neck pickup, changed electronics.) I personally find this pickup configuration better than the 2000's, the bridge pup in stingray position makes it really useful by itself and it blends perfectly with the neck pup too. Wish it were mine :)

this is my (for the time being) LB100. I have it up for sale, as I'm just not connecting with it... but the longer it stays in the FS ads, the more likely I'll end up keeping it! :)

That is such a looker, I keep on visiting your ad for a look. Just not actually looking at buying another G&L at the moment.
If I was looking for a P bass to gig, even though I love Fender P's, I would more than likely go for one of these.

1996 G&L L-5500 (the one with the EMG 40dc pickups and BTC active circuit) Played one in McCormacks Music in Glasgow around 20 years or so ago and liked it. 
Finally got one and I’m pleased as punch with it. Bit of a weighty bugger but I’m sure this thing is going to sound great at my next band practice. Sounds great solo’d too. Just not like any G&L I heard/played/owned before.

Picked up a pair of Tributes in the last week. Jezzaboy sold me his LB-100 and and I bought the sunburst JB from Guitar Guitar. The third bass is my sonic blue Tribute JB-2.
