With its wider 19mm string spacing and powerful MFD humbucker equipped to handle the lowest frequencies, the L-1000 S750 provides a muscular voice without sacrificing articulation. The slim, rounded neck has an instantly familiar feel for bassists, with a dual-action truss rod and graphite reinforcement rods providing stable tuning across the range. Vintage-minded details like the graceful headstock, chunky control knobs and sweeping control plate offer a timeless look. Whether you need to lock in with a drummer or solo in the higher registers, the G&L CLF Research L-1000 Series 750 bass guitar delivers impressive tonal versatility for the modern low-end player.</p> <h3>Widen Your Range With the Extra 19mm String Spacing</h3> <p>As a 5-string bass, the G&L CLF Research L-1000 Series 750 features an extra 19mm of string spacing compared to a standard 4-string bass. This wider spacing makes it easier to dig into those lower notes without inadvertently muting the neighboring string. The wider spacing also keeps each string ringing out with clarity when you're playing chords or fast moving lines across all five strings. For bassists accustomed to the tighter string spacing of a 4-string, the "Wide 5" setup of the L-1000 S750 makes expanding your range to a 5th lower string feel natural.</p> <h3>Hear Rich Lows and Clear Highs with the Custom MFD Humbucker</h3> <p>The L-1000 S750 bass packs a muscular punch with its custom-designed MFD humbucker. Tuned specifically for the low B string and wide tonal range of a 5-string bass, this pickup captures deep bass tones while still preserving note articulation and harmonic content - no muddiness here. The MFD humbucker has an oversized footprint to cover all five string poles, ensuring each string gets picked up evenly. When you switch into single coil mode via the 3-way mini toggle, the crisp treble tones sing out with vintage character. From thumping low end to singing highs, the L-1000 S750 pickup configuration has you covered.</p> <h3>Sculpt Your Sound With Three-Way Coil Splitting</h3> <p>A three-position mini toggle switch provides versatile pickup options to suit any musical context. The full humbucking mode delivers that classic thick, rounded electric bass tone. Flipping to the middle coil-split position, you'll get a focused midrange punch for cutting through the mix. The third setting activates the famous "OMG" single coil mode for a bold percussive attack. Experiment with the various coil combinations to customize your sound.</p> <h3>Rock Solid Stability and Sustain With the Wide 5 Saddle Lock Bridge</h3> <p>The L-1000's Wide 5 Saddle Lock bridge plate provides a stable base for vibrant, sustained tone. The extra string spacing allows the saddles to sit firmly in place for optimal energy transfer from strings to body. You'll feel the difference in the way each note rings out clear and true. Combined with the resonant swamp ash body, this bass offers exceptional sustain.</p>", "value":"1,899.00", "priceMin":"1,899.00", "priceMax":"1,999.00", "priceSavingsMaxPrice":"0.00", "priceSavingsMaxPercent":"8", "inventory":"0", "brand":"G&L", "reviewStarImageUrl": "https://static.musiciansfriend.com/img/brand/mf/cmn/Sprit-Sm-Stars.png", "reviewStarRating":"0.0", "reviewStarRatingInteger":"0", "reviewHowManyReviews":"0", "usedOrNew":"new", "discontinued":"0", "onOrder":"1", "clearance":"0", "canBeSold":"1", "accessoryCategories":"site1HBAL,site1LFML,site1LROBB", "stickerText": ""}
