Overview
The ESP GrassRoots G-LB-52CC Short Scale Bass was one of the 35 models in ESP's "GrassRoots Original Series." Sadly, this series is no longer in production. At the time of writing, however, G-LB-52CC is still listed on the ESP GrassRoots | Production End Models page.
This G-LB-52CC (Serial Number GW08236600) was sent in on April 3, 2025 for sticker removal, tuning machine replacement, cleaning and polishing, hardware and electronics servicing, plus a string change and setup. All these tasks have since been completed, and this lovely little bass is now waiting for his daddy to come take him home.
