Tribute questions

Post by JWin62 »

I have a number of G&Ls, which I love. I bought a bluesboy new and a legacy used, the setup on both is great, but both have developed static in the pots, could someone point to a source and maybe model of better quality replacement voume and tone pots?

The legacy is missing the tremelo bar and nylon bushing, ordered a bar, diameter is too small, have called, left message, emailed gandl to no avail (not goign to worry with returning first bar). Is there another source or maybe someone how to find these items on their site?

Thank you for any help.

I'd clean the pots with electrical contact cleaner before I replaced anything.

I understand G&L is more responsive on Facebook.

These items are available on the G&L On-Line Store: Product Collections.
Here's the trem bar you need to order: VIBRATO ARM - G&L DUAL FULCRUM (CURRENT USA AND ALL TRIBUTE SERIES).
Online Store manager email contact is webstore@bbesound.com.

Hope this helps.
