Maple fretboard bass tone battle - 2003 G&L Tribute L-2000 vs 80's Ibanez Roadstar 2 RB650

Very nice basses, thanks for sharing. I like the look of the blacked out Ibanez that somehow snuck in there too ;)

You are the first person to catch that rosewood Ibanez RB650 for the one riff ;) It's in a couple of comparison videos I have out there. I have this weird thought of comparing every bass out there ever to each other (financially impossible for me.) I've been saving the videos of a particular bass separately in DaVinci Resolve so I can copy and paste things easily. I've grabbed that RB650 from a comparison video of the maple vs. rosewood and somehow the one clip is from the wrong bass. I was waiting for someone to catch that. At least someone is paying attention 😀

Very cool comparison, thanks! Did you have the preamp on on the L2k?

[@kubicki2000]

Yes, I actually changed the preamp, pickup and coil switches around every now and then different licks.
