New bass

Check it out. I ordered a new bass, custom made. It's a G&L L-2500 five-string electric bass guitar. The custom part was the color, the music store that carries had an L-2500, but it was the same tobacco sunburst as my Yamaha BB-1200. Here's a picture of my Yamaha:



I didn't want two basses that looked exactly alike, so I ordered it custom from the G&L factory in Fullerton, California. This one is Belaire Green, a rosewood fingerboard, with hand-rubbed gun oil and a glossy finish on the neck. Here's a picture (taken with my cameraphone) of the new bass.



The headstock is finished in the same color as the body, and the fretboard markers have been omitted.



G&L was formed by Leo Fender, who invented the bass guitar, and was responsible for the Fender Precision, Fender Jazz, and Music Man basses.
