1981 G&L L-1000 Wunkay Black

Here's a 1981 G&L L-1000 Bass in Black finsh. One owner bass! This is also the 1st bass model/design introduced by Leo Fender when he started G&L. This a rare, early Wunkay (1k) example, that's all original! Also rare having black finish. No breaks, cracks, repairs. The L1000 has one large humbucking pickup & passive electronics. Often referred to as Leo Fender's attempt at the ultimate P-Bass. The humbucker offers massive output. 1 volume and separate bass and treble dials. The switch offers, single-coil mode / humbucking / The last position is often referred to as bass boost mode, series w/ bass boost. It actually has series wiring with a cap that sucks some of the treble out (increased output + decreased treble = bass boost) Bullet truss rod at the headstock end. Skunk stripe on the back of the neck. Playability is exceptional, with easy playing low action. Fantastic feeling neck. Added bonus? The bass looks cool as can be! So much bang for the buck here. If you know...you know! HSC....
