Up for your consideration is a G&L Fullerton Deluxe JB bass in Vintage Natural finish. The electronics have been play tested and working as they should and it sounds fantastic. This Deluxe JB has an swamp ash body with a maple G&L vintage Alnico jazz pickups, custom G&L "Ultra-Lite" with aluminum tapered string posts, and a saddle Lock bridge with chrome-plated brass saddles. This one is in beautiful condition and is ready to be enjoyed, it has the original Certificate of Authenticity and will ship with the bag/case as pictured in the listing.

When G&L closed its doors in October 2025, MIRC obtained the remaining inventory.  This instrument is one of the final production models to come off the G&L line in Fullerton, California.  

The G&L Fullerton Deluxe JB MFD combines the classic, highly playable Jazz Bass platform with G&L's powerful Magnetic Field Design (MFD) pickups, resulting in a bass that delivers exceptional tone, clarity, and increased output. These exclusive MFD jazz pickups offer a dynamic range far beyond traditional single-coils, suitable for virtually any style or setting. This model features a swamp ash or alder body and a Hard-Rock Maple neck with a comfortable 1.5-inch Medium C profile and 9.5-inch radius, ensuring smooth and effortless performance. The innovative Saddle-Lock bridge, another Leo Fender design, anchors the strings and efficiently transfers vibration directly into the body end-grain, maximizing both resonance and clarity for a powerful, articulate low-end.
