Product Description

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.

MFD pickups

The foundation of the L-2000 is a pair of G&L Magnetic Field Design humbuckers backed by the flexible Tri-Tone control system. It will provide the sort of versatility that’ll let you find your tone no matter the genre. 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.

Hardware

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.

The Tribute Series L-2000 delivers the magic of Leo’s revolutionary bass at a price attainable for every working musician. Once you play a G&L Tribute Series, you’ll never look back.

This bass is a beast. It's worth a little effort getting to know its many different tonal options (18 before bass and treble adjustments) and it helps to roll back a little on the controls to tame it a little as the pickups are very loud and responsive. I am used to a fender blacktop jazz bass which I just turn everything up to 10 and go, but the g&l demands more effort of the user, but rewards in spades. Recorded direct through a preamp it sits very proud in the mix, quite midrangey but in a good way. Used live for the first time a couple of weeks ago and the sound man said it was the best bass sound he ever heard, straight up! That was with both pups, serial, passive mode. Looks awesome in Olympic white and I like the feel of the satin neck, although larger at the nut than I am used to, the neck feel suits the big sound that this bass makes. At the price Andertons are selling them for its a no brainer!

As usual , fantastic tonal variety and power from these pickups and per amp. Fretboard shade pale brown instead of dark as per photo and one minor scuff on headstock.
