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 throne—a “brother from another mother,” 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 that’s technically been on the market for only a year, let’s face it—it’s a Jazz bass, and we’re used to seeing them well worn. G&L’s relic team does an excellent job of faking the age with a subtle, but very thorough, approach. And underneath the finish, it’s a top-notch example of a classic J Bass.
