G&L Tribute M-2000 GTS Electric Bass Trans Black

If laying down crushing bass lines is your thing, the M-2000 GTS has no equal, but this is no one-trick pony. For slapping, rolling back some highs and dialing up some lows, coupled with a mid-range boost, magnifies the intensity that Leo’s humbuckers are famous for. Need more definition for fingerstyle? Just bring up the treble and roll off the bass for a nuanced and detailed sound. Headroom? The new M-Series preamp harnesses the power of those meaty MFD humbuckers without a hint of clipping.

Description

Three decades ago, the G&L L-2000™ bass served notice that company founder Leo Fender† was ready to disrupt the status quo. The bold, brash L-2000 has always been an exhilarating experience for players with the skill to pull it off. Now the new M-2000™ and M-2500 harness that power with a sonic palate that will surprise and delight new and die-hard G&L fans alike.
The M-2000 GTS packs all the innovations of the M-2000 into a bass that looks as badass as it performs. With its top-bound, maple-capped, carved mahogany body sporting a striking trans black finish and black headstock, this bass is ready to rock. But elegantly sinister looks are just the beginning.
Leo’s MFD™ humbuckers have always been the heart of the iconic L-Series. In the all-new M-Series, these powerhouses are voiced to fully exploit a studio-quality 18v preamp system specially designed by G&L’s R&D wizard Paul Gagon. With an LF442 chip, 100v poly caps, 1% metal film resistors and big, fat signal traces on the mil-spec circuit board, this preamp reveals everything the player and the instrument have to offer.

    After owning an M2000 GTB for a short while, I knew I needed to get this one to go along with it. The black is much darker than I thought, but looks great and the flame top really stands out in the light.

    The quality is spot on as well as the tone. Actually this bass roars. The pickups and preamp give me a nice growly tone and with a slight boost in bass it also gets quite thumpy with a considerable amount of volume.

    The bass is a bit heavy and the neck is also a bit chunky sort of like a Sterling Ray34, but with much more authority in tone. This bass is solid.

    I'm so glad I purchased this bass and would recommend it to anyone who isn't worried about weight.
