Here we have a beautiful pre owned G&L SB-2 Custom Order Build 4- string electric bass.  Made in the United States in 2014. The finish is Black Gloss with wood binding. This wonderful bass features an Alder body, Hard Rock Maple neck, and a Rosewood fingerboard.  The bass weighs a comfy 8lbs 10oz.   This bass is strung with 45-100’s and is playing great.  The neck is straight and the truss rod is working perfectly.  The frets are in excellent condition with very minimal signs of wear.  Cosmetically, the bass is very clean.  There are a couple of swirly light scuffs in the finish on the back side of the bass near the treble side. (see photos). They are hard to see but in the right light they are visible. The SB-2 is an incredible bass that has stood the test of time.  Classic single vintage split coil pickup for the “thump” and the “growl”. Dual Volume controls so you can set the blend of the pickups.  You just can’t go wrong. Timeless design and superior build quality. The bass comes with a deluxe G&G Hard Case and all paperwork including build sheet and certificate.  Please see the photo of the build sheet for more details. Thanks for looking and happy buying!
From G&L site….

When Leo Fender† launched the G&L SB•2™ bass in 1982, he packed his latest innovations in pickup and bridge design into a straightforward, hard-working bass. If you prefer a less-is-more aesthetic but hunger for something meatier, the SB•2 is just the ticket.

The SB•2 starts with a familiar shape, though subtle modifications to its sculpting make it more sleek and balanced. Strap it on and it immediately feels at home, yet somehow more comfortable than you expected. The slim, C-shaped neck falls immediately to hand, checking in with a comfortable 9 1/2″ radius and 21 Jescar 57110 medium-jumbo nickel-silver frets ready to deliver silky playability.

Once the SB•2 has nestled into your comfort zone, it’s time to experience just how far Leo evolved the classic duo of split-coil and single coil pickups. You see, these Magnetic Field Design™ interpretations were created by Leo to give you more gusto without losing detail and finesse. A simple dual-volume control setup allows you to strike any balance between the two, even backing off both volumes to dial in a more vintage flavor. What’s more, the SB•2 features an innovative Leo Fender-designed Saddle-Lock™ bridge to transfer string energy right into the body end-grain for an incredibly resonant instrument.

The bottom line: SB•2 brings the magic of Leo’s own reinterpretation of the P/J configuration in a bass that delivers all the tone and feel you’d expect in a “Latter Day Leo” instrument.

Made in Leo Fender’s historic G&L facility on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California, the SB•2 is available with a wide range of custom options including body and neck woods, body and neck finishes, neck profiles and pickguard materials.

Founded by Leo Fender in 1980, G&L USA instruments continue to be made in the historic G&L facility on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California, the Birthplace of Bolt-on™.
