Fullerton, CA  – June 25, 2012 – Three decades ago, the G&L L-2000™ bass served  notice that company founder Leo Fender† was ready to disrupt the status  quo of bass design.  Now the new Tribute Series M-2000™ and M-2500 harness that power with a  sonic palate that will surprise and delight new and die-hard G&L  fans alike.

In  the all-new M-Series, these powerhouses are voiced  to fully exploit a studio-quality 18v preamp system that incorporates  volume, pickup blend, treble, middle and bass controls creating an  amazing array of tonal possibilities for any playing style. The new  M-Series preamp harnesses the power of those meaty  MFD humbuckers without a hint of clipping.  The “feel” of the M Series  Basses is familiar and every design aspect rock solid.
