Pinball Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) These G&L Tributes are amazing basses and are well known for thier good construction and wide array of sound options. My reason for sale is that I already have a G&L L1500 and wanted to compare them. I now need to slim down the number of instruments that I own. This bass plays and sounds superb and has really nice wood grain. It is also in showroom condition. Save yourself some money and buy it...any trial is welcome. There is a nice vid of someone here putting one of the L series though it's paces: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5-VEr_M9I8"]https://www.youtube....h?v=_5-VEr_M9I8[/url] To quote the G&L web site: When Leo Fender† launched the G&L L-2000™ bass in 1980, it was clear he was ready to make history all over again. Never before had such a wide range of tones come from a single bass, and today the L-2500™ packs all the features of the latest L-2000 into a 5-string. Like its L-2000 brother, the foundation of the L-2500 is a pair of G&L Magnetic Field Design™ humbuckers backed by the flexible Tri-Tone™ control system, providing the sort of versatility that’ll let you find your tone no matter what kind of bass line you’re laying down. The Tri-Tone system features a trio of mini toggles for pickup selection, series/parallel signal routing and active/passive operation, as well as a trio of knobs for volume, treble and bass. With all that under the hood, the L-2500 brings the kind of chops that’ll fit in any situation, from classic R&B to power-packed rock to poppin’ funk. What’s more, the L-2500 features an innovative Leo Fender-designed Saddle-Lock™ bridge to transfer string energy right into the body end-grain for an incredibly resonant instrument. The Tribute® Series L-2500 delivers the magic of Leo’s revolutionary design at a price attainable for every working musician. Once you play a G&L Tribute Series, you’ll never look back.

Pinball Posted February 28, 2017 Author Posted February 28, 2017 Now £375, which seems about right and this one is a cracker. Get it while it's hot!
BassBunny Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Surprised this is still here. The Swiss Army Knife of basses and probably the best value for money out there. I played a US and a Tribute side by side and could tell much difference.
