noelk27 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 (edited) With no plans to gig through next year, moving on two of my backup basses. (Actually, it would be more accurate to describe both as the backups to my backup instruments.) As both these were purchased as backups to my main stage instruments they’ve seen very little use. Prices include mainland UK postage. G&L Tribute Series, L2000 Premium, Blueberryburst, Swamp ash body, Rock maple neck, Rosewood touchboard. Manufactured in South Korea. Build date 03/03/2006. Supplied with G&L padded gig bag, lead and tools (still sealed), manufacturer’s certificate, warranty card, build date tags, etc. Light use- neck finish starting to lose that raw, new feel. As new condition. £375 G&L Tribute Series, L2000 Premium, Cherryburst, Swamp ash body, Maple neck, Rosewood touchboard (defretted, by Jimmy Moon, Moon Guitars- [url="http://www.moonguitars.co.uk/moonhome.html"]http://www.moonguitars.co.uk/moonhome.html[/url] ). Manufactured in South Korea. Build date 26/04/2006. Supplied with G&L padded gig bag, lead and tools (still sealed), manufacturer’s certificate, warranty card, build date tags, etc. Very light use. As new condition. Currently strung with a new set of D’Addario Chromes (45/65/80/100). £400 I hate Adobe. Artwork available via email. PM your details if interested.

All the others are made from swamp ash. They're all 'premium' unless they're black, basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circa 2006, the Korean built Tribute Series was offered in a larger number of finishes. Standard featured a basewood or alder body with solid or trans finishes, while Premium featured an alder or swamp ash body with transburst or special finishes (although a different selection, the equivalent of what G&L USA now label Premier finishes).
