Re: My new Bass

The site is guitarsbyleo.com. Yes, I proudly own a 1985 Mahogany L2000. It =
actually came from that forum. I'd had an early S500 guitar (my 2nd electri=
c guitar, 1st was a Gibby Paul Custom), and when I switched to bass, I plac=
ed a notice that I wanted to trade. I had over a dozen offers within fiftee=
n minutes. This was what I felt was the pick of the litter.=0D

You've just got to love the genius of Leo Fender. He gave so much to the wo=
rld of music. He was working on a bass design on his last day at G&L. The p=
rototype was to be shown to him the next morning, a morning that never came=
 to pass. That instrument was never released by G&L.=0D

I love my L2K for its versatility. It can do P bass thump and J bass growl,=
 plus a whole lot more.=0D

Cool, what's the name of that site & thanks for that info too. Your a G&L m=
an yourself, if I remember right. Is yours a L2500 or an L2000. Man, what a=
 great Bass. I've been using my 1980 Fender Jazz 1975 reissue that's been h=
ot-roded out with DP149 ultra jazz pick-ups & a Gotoh high mass bridge, as =
my main Bass. It's a very versatile bass also. I love that Fender so much ,=
 that I sleep with that bass, since my divorce. It's always treated me bett=
er than the ex anyway & never complains or gives me any trouble what so eve=
r. It's become kind of a weird love a fare. Now I've got two baby's & both =
designed by Leo the man. I've got six basses: two Gibson's, a T-bird & a Le=
s Paul, two Fender Jazz basses a 62 reissue & my sweet baby girl the 75 rei=
ssue, a 63 Hofner 500/1 & now my new baby girl the G&L L2500. I'm a weird d=
ude I know, but who cares. As long as I can hold down the bottom end & play=
 in the pocket, I'm good. Thanks again for the info.=0D

 G&L L2500 that just seemed to be calling to me, to come over there & pick =

the Carvin, then back to the G&L, then back to the Carvin & finally back to=
 the G&L. I even picked up one of those MTD Z5s & an Ibanez Prestige BTB150=

 had just stolen my heart. This is my first G&L Bass & I'm sold on G&L now.=
 What a great bass & so versatile too. With this bass I can get any tone I =
want & then some. =0D
