Product Description

Leo Fender’s Magnum Opus

Here it is. The final evolution of the dual-humbucker bass from the man who started it all. This 2000 G&L L-2000 is a straight-up tonal chameleon, born from decades of Leo Fender’s relentless innovation. It’s not just a bass; it’s a piece of history that you can feel in your hands and hear in every note. This one, hailing from the Fullerton factory at the turn of the millennium, is broken-in beautifully and ready for its next chapter.

Unleash the MFD Humbuckers

The heart of the L-2000 is its pair of G&L Magnetic Field Design humbuckers. These aren’t your average pickups. They deliver a hotter, broader frequency response that can be shaped into just about anything you can imagine. The adjustable pole pieces let you dial in your string-to-string balance with surgical precision, giving you total control over your sound. From a deep, resonant thump to a searing, aggressive cut, the MFDs handle it all with incredible articulation.

The Tri-Tone System: Your Sonic Swiss Army Knife

This is where the magic really happens. The flexible Tri-Tone electronics system is your command center for a world of tones. Flip the first switch to choose your pickup. The second lets you run the pickups in series for a thick, punchy tone with a serious midrange boost, or in parallel for a brighter, single-coil-esque jangle with hum-canceling performance. The third switch puts you in active, passive, or active with a high-end boost mode, giving you everything from vintage warmth to modern hi-fi clarity. It’s an incredibly powerful and intuitive system that makes this one of the most versatile basses ever built.

Built for the Player

From the resonant Alder body to the rock-solid Hard Rock Maple neck, this L-2000 was built to be played. The G&L Saddle-Lock bridge is a work of genius, locking the saddles together to transfer more string vibration directly into the body for resonance that blooms and sustains. The 7.5-inch fretboard radius offers a comfortable, vintage-style feel that’s a joy for any playing style. This bass is in very good condition, a testament to its quality construction and a life of making music.

Anatomy of a Tone Machine

Anatomy of a Tone Machine

Perfect for: Rock • Funk • Pop • Metal

Tone

  • Bridge pickup delivers aggressive punch and articulate highs that cut through any mix.
  • Neck pickup offers warm, deep, and round tones perfect for classic R&B and dub.
  • Combined, the pickups can be fat and funky (parallel) or a roaring powerhouse (series).
  • Exceptionally responsive to playing dynamics, from a soft touch to a heavy-handed attack.

Playing Feel

  • Well-balanced Alder body that sits comfortably whether you're standing or sitting.
  • The 1.75" nut width provides a substantial, P-bass style feel with comfortable string spacing.
  • Responds instantly to your touch, with the Saddle-Lock bridge providing a direct connection to the wood.
  • A workhorse bass that remains comfortable and inspiring even after hours of playing.

Versatility

  • Goes from glassy cleans to gritty overdrive with ease, thanks to the high-output MFDs.
  • A fantastic pedal platform; the active/passive switch helps it play nice with any effect.
  • In the studio, it's a secret weapon. You can get nearly any bass sound without changing instruments.
  • Sits perfectly in a dense mix, with the tonal flexibility to either blend in or stand out.

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

It’s a completely flexible system that gives you total command over your tone. The three mini-toggles let you select your pickup, choose between a fat series or a punchy parallel wiring, and switch between a vintage-style passive mode or two distinct active modes. It’s like having multiple basses in one.
G&L’s Magnetic Field Design pickups use a ceramic bar magnet under each coil, with soft iron adjustable pole pieces to dial in the magnetic field. This gives them a broader, more dynamic frequency response with more output and punch than traditional Alnico magnet humbuckers, all while staying quiet and articulate.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 14-Day Return Policy. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
Orders ship same day in most cases and arrive within 1-4 business days with free, insured shipping. We’ll get it into your hands as quickly as we can.
Call us at (888) 794-8482. You’ll talk to a real musician who can answer anything you need to know.
