Tony Hill's 1981 L-2000

Our friend Tony Hill has played his 1981 L-2000 for more than 30 years. Being a lefty, Tony played this heavyweight righty upside down and put rubber caps over the pot shafts to make them more comfortable against his forearm than the original machined knobs. Though Tony loves this bass, he needed a change and we had an idea. We're building him a proper lefty L-2000 that'll be much lighter, and swapping him for his '81. Here's Tony in Leo's lab, playing a farewell groove before leaving this bass with us here on Fender Avenue. It's a homecoming we'll never forget. Thanks, Tony!
