The G&L LB•100 made its debut twenty years ago in response to bassists asking for a subtle evolution of the p-style platform. With a slightly streamlined body shape for improved comfort and balance, the LB•100 also brought the G&L Saddle Lock bridge for richer note definition and sustain. In the late ‘90s tastes were changing and the popularity of the p-style platform waned, and the LB•100 was discontinued.
In those years the G&L LB•100 earned legions of avid fans, among them Garry Beers of INXS. According to Garry:
“I’ve been a diehard Precision Bass fan since I was a kid, and as my career took off with INXS I was fortunate to be able to collect some amazing examples made in the ‘50s and ‘60s. Of course, there’s my number one Fender, a 1958 p-bass which I dearly love. However, the truth is the best p-type basses I’ve played are my G&L LB•100s. The shape, feel, and tone are just superb. I’m excited to see the LB•100 return after all these years.” – Garry Beers of INXS
While the tone remains unchanged, thanks to a faithful recreation of the original LB•100 Alnico V pickup wound in-house at G&L.
Made in Leo Fender’s historic G&L facility on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California, the LB•100 is now available with a wide range of custom options including body and neck woods, body and neck finishes, neck profiles and pickguard materials.
