It was brilliant though and just a thoroughly lovely bass. That control plate gave me cause for concern until I realised that it was the carpet reflecting! 2 Quote

I am sure G&L will tell us that the new bridge is great as it reduces weight and/or is a modern take on a classic look etc. However, it was probably done to save costs. Quote

As much as I love almost everything Leo did for bass players whilst at Fender, Musicman and G&L, I know I'd never stop fiddling with the controls on the 2000E. It's bad enough for me on my single pup USA MM Sterling. Edited April 16, 2022 by Sparky Mark Quote

Jonesy Posted April 16, 2022 Posted April 16, 2022 There's mention of them being available over on TB back in November, but there doesn't seem to be any mention of them on the G&L site and I can't see it on many retailers sites. I wonder if it's a US only line? Quote

Owen Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 It arrived. It is a shade under 8.8lbs and I really like it. I cannot deny I like a FSO and it is ticking all those boxes. 4 Quote
Owen Posted June 27, 2022 Posted June 27, 2022 I gigged it on Saturday night. I have never before been so nervous about dinging an instrument. I have never owned a brand new bass in my life. 2 Quote
