For
a couple years now, G&L has been building guitars and basses with
Empress Wood. Empress is a fast growing hardwood native to Asia but also
grown in North America. It's hard, dense, and has a grain like Swamp
Ash which looks good under clear finishes. Tonally with think it's an
excellent wood for bass guitars. Empress has a clear punchy tone that
emphasizes the fundamental note, which is critical for laying down a
well-defined bottom end. The high end response has the clarity of swamp
ash, but also has great low extension with a leaner midrange than Alder.
If we had to pick our favorite woods for bass guitars, Empress
certainly is at the top of the list. We also equipped this guitar with
the narrower 1.5" nut width J-Bass style neck with a top-dot delete
rosewood fretboard (we love that look).
The
L-2000 has what looks like a complex control format, but it only takes a
moment to become familiar with their functions. From top to bottom the
knobs are Volume, Treble and Bass. In the active mode these controls
provide true frequency boost and cut. In passive mode they work much
like G&L's passive treble and bass controls on their Legacy guitar
series.
Then there is the top toggle, which is a three-way switch
that works exactly like a three-way pickup selector on an electric
guitar (neck, both, bridge). The middle toggle puts the pickups in
series or parallel mode. Parallel has a leaner, brighter tone, while the
series mode adds a more pronounced midrange fullness. I liken parallel
to a "JB" mode and series to the fatter warmer "PB"
tone. Players who slap or like a springy piano-like tone will like the
parallel mode; while the series mode is fatter with a more wooly and
warm tone. Lastly, the bottom toggle controls whether the guitar is
passive, active, or active mode with a treble boost.
The
difference between active and passive is not dramatic, but active mode
is a little crisper with a slightly sharper attack and more responsive
tone controls. Neither is "better" but active mode is naturally more
flexible, and you might only need passive mode if your battery goes dead
or if you play an amp with very limited headroom.
With all this
tone shaping capability, the G&L L-2000 is capable of anything from
bright slap bass, to warm jazz, fat growling low end, or trashy punk.
With broad dynamic range and excellent overall sustain, it's really just
a matter of a little experimentation to dial in the guitar to suit your
style or particular gig.
The G&L L-2000 is immensely flexible
instrument, that blends a powerful but easy-to-use control format along
along with G&L's top notch materials, hardware, fit and finish. The
G&L L-2000 is perfect for session musicians, live performers, and
those who desire a professional level bass that can cover any style or
genre of music.
