For Sale: G&L Fullerton Deluxe Kiloton in Metallic Tangerine - *SOLD* £1100

[Old Horse Murphy]

I've not had this too long but now as I've started gigging in earnest as always happens, I find I settle with a smaller number of core basses and right now, I'm just a little bit in love with my Jazz Bass. 
 

It's a June 2021 US G&L Fullerton Deluxe Kiloton in a stunning Metallic Tangerine. It comes with the gig bag, paperwork and Allen keys and is in spotless condition. It weighs 9lbs 7oz, so is a nice comfortable weight. 
 

This has been described as a Stingray killer and although passive, it's seriously hot with a Series/Single Coil/Parallel switch which added to the tone knob really gives it huge versatility. The sounds that come out of it are fabulous. 
 

Action is between 2-2.5mm on the E String at the 12th fret and it really plays well. It's set up as it was from the factory and for once I really didn't see the need in changing it. 
 

When I bough this it was the only one in the country in this colour for sale and as much as I'd like to keep it, my G&L itch is being scratched by my SB-1 and L-2000. This is really just going to waste and deserves to be played regularly. 
 

I'm looking for £1,100 delivered but would be happy to meet in and around an hour of Monmouth to hand it over. No trades please.

Ah. Not to be eh? What a shame.

Beautiful bass. I had the lesser (but still very good) Tribute Kiloton and the three pickup settings were all distinct and all very usable. 

 

GLWTS!

Thanks mate. It's a cracking bass but I'm using the other ones more and we also need to invest in some more wedge monitors too.

Love this! How does it compare to your L2000 tonally?

It's not a like for like comparison obvs because the L2000 is active, whereas this is passive. I'd say it's similar but not as harsh as the L2000 can be if you dial it in. I guess it's more like the L1000 but more Stingrayish if possible. It's a really lovely pickup and electrics setup.

Thanks dude. I have an L2000 and nearly always run it front pickup/passive, so I've been interested in a single pickup alternative.

No worries. It's a cracking bass but I have other cracking basses that are a bit more what I need right now
