1983 G&L SB1

Looking for a new home for my beloved G&L. I've had it for for twelve years.
It's very used, scratched, I've worn through the finish. I'm sure you know all
about these basses, single coil, maple neck/fingerboard.

Serial # B013912

You can see me playing the bass here circa 2000 (1:06 in):

Yes, I play very hard.

Make an offer.

Nice bass! You do play hard - that's the right way to give it the relic look.

Umm seem interesting ... but what is the wood type of the body ?

I read somewhere that G&L in the 80s adopted basswood bodies at a certain point.

I went over and played that bass today. The bass sounds and plays great. My guess is it's Alder.

Is that a single coil or humbucker in that bass?

Wow, cool bass. Would you consider selling outside the US?

Just sold it.

Wonder why he's selling it already?

Wow. I'm dumbfounded. She 's only had it three days and I'd totally give her the money back.
