The story

Built in Fullerton, California in August 2022, this CLF Research L•1000 has an okoume body in Old School Tobacco and a hard-rock maple neck with a Caribbean rosewood fingerboard. Serial CLF2207040 and the factory specification sheet document the instrument.

A single passive G&L MFD L-series humbucker is switched between series, parallel and OMG modes. At 3.975 kg, it was lightly played at home and sold with its original G&L deluxe hard case and Thomastik-Infeld JF324 flats.
