G&L JB Rustic Electric Bass Guitars Overview:
UPON FIRST GLANCE, you might think the G&L JB is just another Jazz bass clone, but keep in mind that Leo Fender invented the Jazz bass and founded G&L, making the JB a legitimate heir to the throneâa âbrother from another mother,â you might say. Although the Jazz bass itself is 50 years old, G&L introduced the JB model in 2009 and its similar-butdifferent predecessor, the JB2, around 2000. Now G&L has entered the relic game with its Rustic Series instruments. The JB Rustic illustrates what can be done to make a new instrument look like an old friend. While it may seem odd to issue a relic of an instrument thatâs technically been on the market for only a year, letâs face itâitâs a Jazz bass, and weâre used to seeing them well worn. G&Lâs relic team does an excellent job of faking the age with a subtle, but very thorough, approach. And underneath the finish, itâs a top-notch example of a classic J Bass.Â
