All user reviews for the G&L Tribute L-2500 Standard

Made in Korea with micro Rican (well the same as the U.S. model after manufacture or EST?)
5 strings, active micro
3 volumes and 3 knob tonalite (well we pass the liability ...) I'm not too special and I do not care a bit

UTILIZATION

Super set, no problem for treble but I am far from a virtuoso
I find it comfortable, can be a bit heavy but I like personal
full of his DIFFERENT

SOUNDS

I play funk, soul hip hop song essentiellment on my home studio but also in groups
the sound is pretty typical love
it's big, bold and well in the style I was looking for
in a slap seems to be pretty, at least I have a much better friend than me who loves to have among other things (besides it to me some day tap the bastard!)

OVERALL OPINION

has been a year since I
I play every day not because I am guitarsite especially for the price but frankly I am more than happy
I needed a 5 string and I get a recording to have a more than adequate
in the end I love it and am not close to the time to buy or sell the same

UTILIZATION

_The Handle is not very late, but I am a regular at the Jazz Bass, and yet it is super fun!
_It Is only 21 frets, you get good until the 18th.
_C'est Basic level of design, may seem a bit vulgar (rather thick, not very original form), but it's a design that has been proven! Its big default, have the microphones is a magnet, which if you play the bass pretty low and quite brutal, are a big poc that affect the string (a piece of damn gaff, and it ends up): /
The bass is not too unbalanced.
_on Quickly gets extremely good sound, becaufe a part, as in many low-active, 6 knob indiferenciable! We play half an hour and found his sound! The switch is extremely practical in concert, you move a switch, and the sound is changed as if we had two knob turned all the way! Better yet, we get very different sounds depending on the positions of the right hand!
I do it is only 8 because of the history of micro: /

SOUNDS

_I Am quite diverse in what I play, but this bass is excellent for its versatility!
We just play with a micro switch, and moving from a metal sound, a sound Funk, Jazz has sound!
_I Cheek with a 20 Watt Amp Warwick and j'obtient sound really hot! I also have a Digitech multi-effects, and it is a treat to the WahWah on this bass!
_with An amp low end (but still good), I sound very chaud.On micro switch and it changes from a crystal-clear sound quite a Funk / Gras.
_J'adore This sound a little funk and a lot of fat with a medium grain and especially in the Upper Medium / Aigues! (Look at my profile to see my settings). I'm not a fanatic of the crystalline metal, but its me does with all the basse.Je tends to appreciate on an Ampeg has € 2000: p
_Branché In SWR, it is a pure happiness slap!

OVERALL OPINION

_Sa Is 3 months I owned it.
_Son Electronic sound palette that allows for extremely diverse makes it a truly unique bass, but not lacking in personality! Well, the hispanic nreste toujorus microphone, and this form not very sexy ...
_J'ai Play an Ibanez SDGR 1305, a Warwick Rockbass Corvette, a Jackson, and I must say that its variety and buried all the heat!
_Facilement Findable a 600-700 €, it's really a monstrous bass for this price! Do not think for one second to change the pickups!
_I Would do this choice a thousand times! If I had € 1,000 more in my budget, I would have a G & L US.Je fell in love with this bass, its sound is really huge!

I would only put 9 / 10, because Leo Fender was not doing shit level violin (of course look at), compare that Fullerton has completely innovated.

Lower Korean with hardware Rican if I am not mistaken (at least for the microphones).
Fresne body (swamp they say but how). Anyway, nice veins, although enhanced by the sunburst.
2 humbuckers, bizarre settings (discussed), a very nice maple neck, not too wide for a 5 string.
Well built, quite settled on the purchase.
Sold with an itty bitty jack which can not know what to do except nodes sailor, no bag or pouch (must get their hands in their pockets the beans ...)

UTILIZATION

Channel nice, I have already said (but you listen not to believe, scoundrels!)
Good access to acute, but I is not a criterion for me. For me, the bass is the bass notes.
Weight not too heavy, I expected worse (maybe it's the swamp ash after all hihihi)
The sound is not bad, yes, but need a little experiment to find it. I just returned the next paragraph.

SOUNDS

Pfouuuiouuuiouuuu, sound ...

What you need to realize is that it is handled a little differently than other low thanks to mini-switches.
Once the volume, bass and treble knobs with set, you can still have different sounds playing at:
- The first switch: switch microphones. Micros bridge, neck pickup, both. What's classic. Those who want the grave, they will choose the neck pickup, sure.
- The second switch: microphones in series or in parallel. I have not understood what position corresponded to what config or if it was the microphones that were impacted or the coils of each pickup, but in any case, there is one of two positions which many serious snoring with extra power. The other gives a softer, more "classical"
- The third switch: position "passive", "active" position, position "with active boost". it speaks for itself there. Again, the world will be divided between classical and modern!!

The only downside to my taste: the tone could be a little more efficient. Only the boost they made a lot of effect (but I was familiar with a stingray while this may be why it takes a lot to me to convince myself).

OVERALL OPINION

I have since yesterday, so it's a little early to talk about it.
I wanted a second bass to give the local repeats (fed up with lugging the suitcase), so I did not want to put too much into it. But I still wanted the beautiful and the good (note contrepèterie Belgian inside).
And as I was, why not 5-string?
Solution: I sit on my principles and I just work a deal with dictatorial countries providers of labor exploited. In short, I bought Korean.
Ordered at T M * t * l * s * c because it's super hard to find in 5-string sunburst. at least in Paris, I have not found. I tried the model for competitors to Pigalle to be sure that the ergonomics suit me.
For fans, G & L is not too distributed and that's a shame: So, should make an attempt to km (guitar or bass for that matter, American or Asian, kif is: we do not find hardly).
So I ordered, they were speaking, the price of color, on time. Thank you. Nevertheless, it is the first time an instrument j'achèete I tried not own, I was worried. But ultimately, you're done, it does not hurt.

This is a nice little low as I immediately started to re-adjust to my taste this weekend with my key (handle, correctness, string height, etc. ...). Well, there was not much to edit. You want j'vous say, they are knowledgeable Koreans, I guess!

Finally, a good bass for my use, because not too expensive, because pretty, because good sound, easy adjustments, because (when we took it).
675 Roros for the beautiful, the cover that was present from the store. Thank you the store.

I put a 'tite picture when I have taken one, I promise.
Thursday I took her to the room for her to take up winter quarters. I will tell you if it did well (our directory = blues, rock)
At the next.

A it! First repeat, and first impressions.
It's good. I used a combo of passive 60W (12 ") that I use there, the least we can say is that it sounds serious (or very severe).
It's pretty clear, that slap is decidedly not too heavy (at least 3 hours), good dynamic.
In short, who has a low slip.

And then it throws. My friends and found it potesse nice, although I was still room because I still bought some stuff! Hell, we have a life, what ...
Oh yes, in fact, I put the picture on my canapoutz well trained.



The Zouli is not my G & L??

(G & L Loire uxure? I do not remember the bastard who told me this site that meant ays G & L esbiennes, hohoho!!)

Edit June 2007
After all these months and again one or two concerts, I maintain all the good that I said that "small" bass.
To make it even more fun, he was offered a Zouli Fender Bassman 250W, the one with the bowl 15 ".
it does it well. Note just a little unclear on the B string, the sound is less interest in the rope, and drooling a little. Maybe I'm wrong as me, who knows.
In any case, it does very well all our songs with a great ease of setting the mini-switches THANKS!
