The G& L LB-100 was intended to be a Christmas gift for my niece. Dueto the fickleness of youth she changed her mind. I would keep this wonderfulinstrument but I have one exactly like it made out of Adler.Also included is the original G&L Case. The case is also in mint condition. All the original paperwork and case candy that came with the G&L LB-100 are in the case. The LB-100 & have been in my smoke free, air-conditioned home since they arrived on December 22,2015. The bass will be carefully packaged in the original G&L shipping box. It will be delivered to your location by  UPS with insurance and signature confirmation. I will provide the tracking number to you by email.
Empress Wood vs Adler
If you are not familiar with Empress wood here are my thoughts and experiences.Empress wood has a grain similar to Adler but is lighter in weight. This bass weighs7.2 lbs versus the 8.9 lbs of my Adler G&L LB-100. In my opinion there isnot a significant difference in sound , tone or playability. If you have back issues, play very long gigsor just do not like the weight of a regular bass, Empress wood may be anexcellent alternative. I urge you to consult the web for additionalinformation, facts, experiences  andopinions.
