Dubs Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Reluctantly up for sale is this great L2000. The only reason this is up for sale is because work has been slow this month and I may need cash for a bigger rig, otherwise I'd be keeping it. These G&L basses are absolutely fantastic; 100% bona fide Stingray killers IMO. The tonal range is anything from a mellow P to a growling Musicman sound, and all that's in between. I'll stop there...the numerous reviews on here and elsewhere will give you a less biased view on how good these basses are. It's in a fantastic condition and is virtually mint bar a couple of very minor buckle marks, and I only mention them to be fully honest. It doesn't come with a case so I'm looking for a local cash on collection from Portsmouth. [b]NOW SOLD[/b] If someone desperately wants this shipped then I'm happy to ship it in a hardcase at the buyers expense, i.e. the cost of the hardcase and shipping is met by the buyer. I'd guess that I can get a good new hardcase for around £50 to £60, and then shipping will be about £12. Edited November 13, 2009 by Dubs

I wanted a bit of anonymity with regards to randoms/employers/etc googling my name or personal email address Cheers for the bass comments. This is a very reluctant sale which is why I'm after a firm £350.
budget bassist Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 ahh fair play, after that unwanted readers thread the other day? and yeah they tend to go for about that on here, strange as there hasn't been any sort of price slump with these

The G&L website quote is as "1 3/4" (44.5mm)". Hope that helps.

karlthebassist Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Oh my god I want this SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad :'( but have no money and nothing I can bare to part with. I nearly brought one years ago and went down the Ibanez route - which sucked.
stingrayfan Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Amazed this is still here - these are £600 new these days and great gigging basses.
Dubs Posted October 29, 2009 Author Posted October 29, 2009 Bump! The offer of a meet up tomorrow or Sunday still stands...
cocco Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 someone please buy this before it gets me into trouble
stingrayfan Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 This does what a Stingray does. And more. (...and it's lighter and cheaper...)
Dubs Posted November 1, 2009 Author Posted November 1, 2009 Thanks for all the positive feedback on the bass Still available...
Mr. Foxen Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 What's the neck like on these, been tempted by them?
