Blurb from G&L

 

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 throughout its evolution the iconic L•2000 has continued to win the hearts of bassists of every style and musical taste.

The foundation of the L•2000 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, Leo gave the L•2000 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•2000 features an innovative Leo Fender-designed Saddle-Lock™ bridge to transfer string energy right into the body end-grain for an incredibly resonant instrument. On the other end is a comfortable, C-shaped neck checking in with a comfortable 9 1/2″ radius and 21 Jescar 57110 medium-jumbo nickel-silver frets ready to deliver silky playability.

Made in Leo Fender’s historic G&L facility on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California, the L•2000 is available with a wide range of custom options including body and neck woods, body and neck finishes, and neck profiles.

Founded by Leo Fender in 1980, G&L USA instruments continue to be made in the historic G&L facility on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California, the Birthplace of Bolt-on™.

Looks like a quarter sawn neck, would you happen to know the radius, width at the nut or G&L neck #?

[bumnote]

Width at the nut measures 1.74 with my trusty vernier, so my favourite 1 3/4

 

Dont know the radius is there a way to tell? there is nothing in the paperwork.

At some point G&L changed from three bolt tilt neck to the six bolt. More recently they changed from 12" radius as standard to 9.5". The headstock and serial number suggest that this isn't an especially recent instrument. So it seems to me reasonable to wonder if it might possibly have a 12" radius neck.

 

Yours nebulously, and probably not remotely helpfully....
