First off, G&L. If you don't know who they are then please look up the history. This was designed by Leo Fender, I guess he left Fender, started Musicman and G&L (not sure of the order) so these basses have lineage. the L-2500 is made in California, comes in a case with certificate (I called them adoption papers because it feels like this will be with me for the rest of my life.) Very nice all the way around. The set-up was pretty good, all things considered. But wow, it feels like such quality. the knobs are heavy and feel firm, industrial, like they could become artifacts of history and still work. The strings set at a nice action and spacing all the way up the neck, it is comfortable, a little heavy but it is a nice hunk of wood. The bone nut and frets were perfect, the strings were strung nicely with not too much extra on the tuners and angle at the headstock leaves me feeling confident it will be an easy bass to keep intonate-ed. The bridge looks solid, heavy and all around this bass just screams take me into battle or play a set, or both, and it doesn't care what order you do them in either. Solid craftsmanship and a stunning work of art, and it just looks like it will be banging around long after I am dead and gone....a solid bass.

I needed an extra bass for jobs cause nothing is worse than a malfunction on your bass with no back up. So this is a great bass. Just like a musicman. And thank you zZounds. After I got the G&L during set up the trust rod snapped and this has never happened before on any guitar I’ve set up. zZounds replaced this 2600$ bass no questions asked. Thank you
