New Tribute Fallout colors?

Mon Dec 07, 2015 7:41 pm

I saw a seller on Reverb selling a new Tribute Fallout in Seafoam Green. Are they coming out with new colors for the new year? Anyone have any info on this?

Stay tuned.

I just heard back from Dave McLaren:

Hi Craig,

Mint will be a new color on the T/S Fallout for 2016.

The first few left the building labeled as Seafoam Green on the carton and invoice.

Backstory: we ordered Seafoam Green but the color is too light for us to comfortably call it that. The solution was to rename the color but by the time we did that a handful had been sold and shipped.

Looks great labeled Mint.

Thanks, Craig.

Dave

Hi,

is the new mint-colored Tribute Fallout available with rosewood and / or maple fretboard? I've seen both during a picture search on the i-net.

Mint and maple looks great! :mrgreen:

Thanks,
Regards,
Andreas

I see Riff City Guitar has them with the maple fretboard:

Hope this helps.

I am not associated with them in any way. Posted for reference only as an example of what you are looking for.

Yeah, saw this one too. Just wondered if Craig could confirm since the official spec doesn't seem to mention maple fretboard: http://guitarsbyleo.com/FORUM/viewtopic.php?p=90368#p90368

That is a sweet looking guitar. I note it has the DFV bridge, but the specs say saddle lock bridge.

It look's like they used a US Fallout photo (in Belair Green) instead of a Tribute Series Fallout photo.
Note that in that photo the bridge pickup is a Seymour Duncan pickup and as you mention, with a DFV bridge. :oops: :oops:

I got confirmation from one of my G&L contacts that the Tribute Series Fallout in Mint finish only comes with a Rosewood fretboard.
I also let him know that RiffCity's ad has a US Fall photo, so hopefully this will get corrected soon.

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot, Craig! Love that color so I'll get it anyway. :evilgrin: Rosewood is fine with me.
