LeftyJ Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) I'm selling my [b]USA-made G&L SB-2[/b], I need the money for a more powerful and cleaner amp than my Ashdown rig. 2-piece alder body, bolt-on maple neck (originally one piece, but this still has G&L's old trussrod system with the 'Bi-Cut neck', which involves cutting the neck in half down the length and installing the trussrod from the side), rosewood fingerboard. 3-tone sunburst, black 3-ply pickguard, G&L Saddle Lock bridge and all the original electronics (G&L Magnetic Field Design pickups and dual volume controls only, no tone control). All stock except for the addition of a Hipshot BT-1 X-tender (or D-tuner). Some slight scratching on the back of the body and the headstock, otherwise in very good condition. Has had a thorough fret redressing and levelling in February 2009, which cost me €160. Receipt can be included on request. Currently strung with brand new Rotosound Nexus .045-.100's. There's no case included, but I will include the Tobias gigbag I got it in. [b]Looking for 750 euros, but I'm open to offers. Shipping to the UK is approximately 25-30 euros.[/b] A photo gallery can be found here: [url="http://s45.photobucket.com/albums/f74/de_slager/GL%20SB-2/"]http://s45.photobucket.com/albums/f74/de_slager/GL%20SB-2/[/url] Edited August 24, 2009 by LeftyJ
silverfoxnik Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 That's a really nice looking bass! Don't see them too much here but, having read a bit about them on TalkBass, it seems that the SB-2's are highly rated across the pond.. Good luck with the sale!
cangaroo Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Hi there what year is the G&L ? Are you still selling it ? Let me know

Let me know[/quote] I'm terribly sorry, I totally missed your reply. The bass is still for sale. I'm not sure about the year, you cannot tell from the serial number, but if you really want to know I can remove the neck and check the date stamps on the body and neck heel.
LeftyJ Posted August 20, 2009 Author Posted August 20, 2009 Bump, and price drop. 750 euros OBO. Want to buy an EBS HD350 and Proline 410 and need cash.
CHRISDABASS Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 This is the first time in my life that wished I was left handed!!!!!
LeftyJ Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 Hehe, funny, usually it's the other way round with lefties drooling over instruments they know they'll never be able to play, let alone possess
dub_junkie Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 BUMP for a great bass. without doubt the SB-2 is my favourite bass I've ever owned/played/heard.
LeftyJ Posted August 24, 2009 Author Posted August 24, 2009 Posted her on leftybass.com today and instantly got a reply. It's on hold for a nice German guy whose name seemed very familiar to me... I wonder if we've traded before in the past.
