Hello everyone!

Another Texas Jim here...I live in the Houston area and came across a wonderful Legacy through a friend of mine who plays bass. He found it in a pawn shop, bought it, and brought it to a jam session where I got to play it, and subsequently got to buy it! This is my first G&L I've ever played, much less owned. It plays like a dream and sounds fantastic...the pickups are much hotter than my LSensors on my Strat, but it still has that great "ring like a bell" tone. Happy New Year to everyone! :-)

Welcome Jim. I'm one state over from you in New Mexico. The Legacy is a fine guitar, and I'm glad you've stumbled on G&L. Warning - betcha can't own just one!

Welcome, Jim! :greet:

It's always great to hear stories like this about a great G&L score.
There are some here that require photographic proof when someone mentions a G&L score.
So, if you can, do post one -- we all love to see G&L porn :thumbup:

Check out the guitarsbyleo.com History and G&LDP Guidelines and
you should find a section on posting photos here on the G&L Forum (aka G&LDP).

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

Welcome Texas Jim! Any new year that starts out with a new G&L will undoubtedly be a good one! Congratulations!
