A "just right" mix of vintage and contemporary!

It's no secret that G&L makes great guitars, whether they be traditional electric guitars or bass. This particular model has a beautifully finished alder body and a hard rock maple neck wood thaa will give you a sound that deftly rides the fine line between warm and mellow and bright and snappy. Picking up your latest grooves are a pair of G&L vintage alnico jazz-type pickups, and you can adjust your sound with 2 volume and one tone controls. It also features the patented G&L Saddle-Lock bridge, which features an Allen screw that presses all the saddles together, helping them resonate as one. You'll lose less string vibration energy caused by side-to-side saddle movement than you would with other guitars. With no pickguard, you get to see the naturally beauty of the wood, and the chrome hardware is a nice complement as well. All in all, this is a great guitar at a great price. With plenty of hooks and looks, it's just waiting for your hands to give it something to do.

I just purchased this bass from MF a little over a week ago. Simply put - Great quality, great sound, great looks. An absolute great deal for the price. Like has been said in another review, this bass far exceeds the quality of the Fender MIM basses. If your looking for a bass in this price range, buy this one! You won't regret it.

Had a few bass guitars in my time. Brought this Bass June this yr. Pull the Bass out of the gig bag, tune it in. Plug it in the old Hartke amp. I was suprised, of the nice action it has and the blance is nice. the controls are tight. The neck is smooth. No string buzzing, I did replace the strings with flatwound Lot easy on the fingers. For any one looking for a great buy and nice smooth action bass. BUY This one

I recently bought this bass because I needed to get a second bass. I have a Fender MIM Jazz bass and it just doesnt compare to this one. I got the sunburst with the maple neck. The neck fits right into my hand and plays great. The body is comfortable and beautiful. The tone is great. I can get a fat funky tone, or I can get a sharp precise tone and everything in between. Im very satisfied with this bass. I highly recommend it

This bass is amazing for the price. when you compare it to a MIM Fender, this bass has it hands down. It's everything you want from a J style bass with nothing you don't. A great feeling neck, smooth yet punchy pickups, well shielded...you just can't beat this baby. It'd be a steal at twice the price.

I recently purchased one of these for a gig bass and could not be more suprised. I have several early 80's G&L 2000's,SB-1's ,a 71 Tele bass and a 66 Fender Jazz Bass and this bass is the equal of them all. The playability and sound out of the box is excellent. The fit and finish are second to none. Perhaps I got an exceptional one but every Tribute bass that I have inspected was a suprise. I don't know how they do it. This one is definitley a lifetime keeper.
