    The new Wide-5 of Fender Avenue is the biggest thing since Leo’s L-2000 hit back in ’81. We call it the G&L L-2500 Series 750 and it’s packing everything that makes the L-2000 and L-2500 icons. So what’s new? The Series 750 is a fiver with a full 3/4-inch string spacing at the bridge, just like Leo’s four-string basses – that’s why we call it a Wide-5.

     

    G&L Research L-2500 Series 750 5-String Bass Guitar Features:

    • Comfortable, natural playability
    • Same 3/4" string spacing as their 4-string models
    • A powerful but clear voice
    • Swamp Ash and Alder body
    • Hard Rock Maple with Rosewood fretboard
    • Simple controls with volume, bass, and treble knobs
    • Two G&L Magnetic Field humbuckers
    • Tri-Tone system with 3-position pickup selector
    • Unique series/parallel switch for expanded tonal range
    • 3-position pre-amp mode switch added power and heft
    • New bridge maximizes string energy transfer to the body – especially that knockout B-string
    • Deluxe gig bag included

     

    After all, it’s in the name: Leo’s four-strings have “three-quarter-inch” string spacing, so we’ve got 3/4" > 0.750” > 19.03mm. When someone says a five-string has “nineteen millimeter” string spacing, that’s just a metric conversion of Leo’s original four-string spec, so here on Fender Avenue it’s gotta be “Seven-Fifty.” The CLF Research L-2500 and other G&L fivers continue with narrower 11/16” string spacing at the bridge, as popularized on 1980s for fivers. The L-2500 Series 750 is for players who want the full three-quarter inch spacing on the most iconic of G&L designs.

     

    Series 750 means there’s a new Wide-5 Saddle Lock bridge plate housing five of the same saddles you’ll find on an L-2000. This new bridge is all about maximizing string energy transfer to the body – especially that knockout B-string. The new body shape draws on classic Fender Avenue forms, melding them into a fresh hit for the ages. That’s a sweet story in itself, as Series 750 arrives exactly forty years after the G&L L-2000 did. And those big pickups are more than stretched out brutes: all the harmonic detail of the best MFD humbuckers speak in a clear voice over massive B-string energy.

     

    Sure, Series 750 is a brand new model but classic Fender Avenue details are everywhere. That graceful early CLF/G&L headstock flows into a slim, rounded neck profile that’s rock solid thanks to a true dual-action truss rod and twin graphite reinforcement rods. And those big, beautiful, machined CLF knobs popping against the sweeping chrome control plate that houses the Tri-Tone Preamp. Even those little color-coded mini toggle switch tips have outsized mojo. This is retrofuturism of the very best kind.
