The G&L M-2000 4-String Bass Guitar in Honeyburst is a variation on the model that was originally designed over three decades ago by Leo Fender himself as an attempt to break the status quo.
The G&L M-2000 features a lightweight carved Swamp Ash body that is joined by a medium C-shaped Hard-Rock Maple neck with a smooth and fast playing 21-fret Rosewood fingerboard with whit dot inlays. The neck is finished off by the distinctive G&L headstock, a design that features every element of another well-known brand, but in a slightly different order.
The body of the G&L M-2000 is equipped with a pair of G&L M-spec Magnetic Field Design bass humbucker pickups that have been designed and made in Fullerton, California. These incredibly powerful pickups are paired with a studio-quality 18v preamp with 3-band EQ, a setup that allows for a wide variety of different tones to be quickly and easily dialled in.
To round out the hardware fittings, the G&L M-2000 comes equipped with a Leo Fender-designed G&L Saddle-Lock bridge that provides rock solid tuning stability and increased resonance, and a set of traditional open-back tuners.
The main features of the G&L M-2000 4-String Bass Guitar in Honeyburst include:
La qualité de fabrication est honorable pour le prix malgré la présence de plusieurs défauts qui ont nécessité des ajustements pour rendre l'instrument parfait.
Les points positifs : la conception est robuste, élégante, et offre un son exceptionnel et polyvalent grâce aux deux humbuckers et à l'électronique active 18V.
Les points négatifs : la finition et les réglages sont à reprendre, et la position actuelle du manche par rapport au corps empêche d'obtenir une action basse sans l'ajout une cale adéquate.
Conclusion : je vous recommande cette basse dont la base de fabrication est excellente pour ensuite obtenir un instrument parfait après ajustements.
