Post Empress Legacy
Greetings from Tucson, Az! I recently acquired a blonde Legacy from Rainbow Guitars; it’s a blonde finish, white pickguard and model-delete headstock. I’m coming from a long line of Fenders, most recently a 50’s Road Worn Strat. The playability of the neck, the light weight and memories of my ‘93 ASAT Special landed me here. I’m loving this guitar! I searched the database; apparently this is a fairly rare guitar...

Welcome! :wave:

Yes, the instruments with empress body are Special Builds from the Fullerton factory. Empress wood is not a current option because
it is difficult for G&L's wood supplier to provide enough good quality body blanks to make it a standard optional body wood.

How is the weight of yours?

When you get a chance, please add your Legacy to our G&L Registry.

It's a featherweight, 6.6 lbs according to the website. But very resonant!
