G&L Tribute Series SB-2 4 String Bass 2025 - Black Frost
About this bass:
Weight: 8.9 pounds
G & L ceased operations in 2025. My supplier, MIRC, purchased all of their remaining brand new inventory. We gave it a fresh polish when we received it, these are the last of their kind made by G & L, when these are gone that is the end of the line. Check out some of the reviews online, they rave about this bass, and after testing it myself I agree, this is a keeper.
All protective covers are still on the bass, ships in the original box with accessories.
Description:
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 modern 12″ radius and its 22 medium-jumbo nickel 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 Tribute® Series SB•2 brings the magic of Leo’s own reinterpretation of the P/J configuration, all at a price attainable for every working musician. Once you play a G&L Tribute Series, you’ll never look back.

FAQ, frequently asked questions
Why was this guitar sent to MIRC? G & L ceased operations in 2025. MIRC purchased all of their remaining inventory, resulting in my ability to offer a brand new guitar at a great price
Will I need to set up my instrument when I receive it? All of my instruments have been set-up before shipping, so most are ready to play out of the box. However some instruments may need a minor adjustment after shipping due to changes in temperature, humidity, and getting bumped around during shipping. Also some players like to set up a new guitar to their own personal preferences.
