New to the club

Hey, my name is Matt. I just recently picked up an L2500 from a member on a different forum. Previously played a cheapy Ibanez and decided it was time to upgrade. After a lot of research I decided I would like to try out one of the new M2500's. After a lot of searching I ran across this L2500 and found the setup on them pretty intriguing. So far I am really happy with it and still am playing around with all the options. So here it is: 2008 BABP L-2500




One more thing. I have been having a hard time trying to figure out what they call this color option. Anyone able to help?

beautiful Bass ... I would say the color is Blackburst

Matt,

Welcome to the world of G&L! I agree that it is Blackburst. I might not have guessed it from the photo, but since it was from a limited run and all of the others are Blackburst, it was probably the standard finish. You could also check over at BassesbyLeo.com to see what other BABP owners say.

I love how the maple neck looks without position markers. If I ever order a fretted G&L, that option will be a "must" for me.

Welcome to you and the gorgeous Blackburst with maple bass Matt!

I don't play bass but the maple without markers adds something perhaps similar to a ghost note.

Welcome Matt. Very nice bass and I have no idea what color it is. I have never seen one like it. -- Darwin

Welocme, Matt!

Nice score! Only 14 were made and as others have said, the body finish is Blackburst.

Thanks for all the welcomes and color help! Ken, I'm really liking the hidden front markers. Found out I don't notice they are gone at all while playing. Thanks for the links. And now my night is booked...
