Description: Steinberger XL-2 1983 Description SteinbergerXL-2 1983Steinberger XL-2 Pot Date made in 1983.Steinberger is famous for its headless structure and neck made of a synthetic material that mixes carbon and graphite, but it has actually been a subsidiary of Gibson since 1987, and then moved its factory to Nashville.After that, various things happened and it was not produced for a while, but after many years of silence, a new model was released in 2006, and it seems that only the Spirit of the Cost Performance series is currently in production.The model that arrived this time is probably a model produced at the Newburgh factory just before the factory was moved to Nashville.Steinberger's signature synthetic necks are famous for being completely unaffected by temperature and humidity, so they do not warp at all, and early versions did not have truss rods. This is because no adjustments are required.However, it seems that the specifications after the factory move have been changed to ones with rods.The Steinberger that arrived this time is exactly the model with the initial specifications.The body and neck are integrally formed, and the inside of the body is hollow, and the pickup and other assemblies are mounted on a plastic lid placed over the hollow body.The structure is unbelievable now, but the sound is very good.Two EMGs are mounted on the pickup. Although it is an active circuit, there is no EQ, and it has a simple specification of 2 volumes and 1 tone.The synthetic material body, commonly known as a bento box, is quite heavy and compact, but it feels surprisingly sturdy and comfortable to hold.I often see Steinbergers being used by bassists in reggae bands, not just this XL-2, and the sound is tight and gives a solid impression. The bass sounds solid in any position.Although there is a brand that was acquired by Gibson, the Steinberger brand itself still exists, but it seems that they are no longer producing them at all, so it seems that we will see fewer and fewer used products in the future.Even if you ignore those rare features, it's a very good bass, and you'll be able to play it for a long time.Exterior condition: Appearance has scratches and signs of use.Truss rod There is no truss rodCondition of the frets: Approximately 8 minutes remaining, good condition with no chatter or clogging of sound!Nut width actual measurement approx. 37mmColor blackManufacture year 1983Number of strings: 4 stringsNumber of frets: 24 fretsneck scale longWeight 3.69kgBody material OthersNeck joint and othersAccessories Hard case Shipping Shipping by EMS or FedEx,UPS (international express mail service, with Tracking and Insurance, handling cost).
