My G&L Ladies
Having just won an ebay auction and picked up my first USA made G&L (An S-500 Deluxe) I feel my collection is well on it's way. My favorite is the one that's in my hands at the time. Each one of these is a work of art and between them cost about as much as a high end Fender.

I am concerned that there are a lot of obstacles between the guitar and the fire extinguisher.
Scored that at a decent price too. Congratulations!

Re: My G&L Ladies
lol There's another fire ex in the laundry room next to the music room. I might let the Epiphone and Fenders burn but the G&L's? NEVER!
I bid on it because it started so low but also because the guy lived in my town. It got up a little bit but I was kind of shocked nobody came in late and bid it higher. Shocked and happy. You're right I got a great price. Just put it in the registry.
Since he was local we arranged to have him just drop it off instead of ship it. It's gorgeous and it feels awesome. I started putting it through it's paces and like every G&L I've ever picked up I'm amazed at how right it feels and sounds.
I was going to order a new one and will someday but no rush now. Oddly enough I was going to get a Deluxe in Greenburst with matching headstock, but then I got that ASAT and this showed up...I won't really need to order a Deluxe, this one is wonderful. I'll have to think of some other build once I get a bonus or a little ahead of the game. Maybe a hollow body Legacy.
I do have two Fender Strats I need to sell, I need to make some room!

Thanks for the compliments all! It's a nice assortment and offers a lot of great options for tone.

Re: My G&L Ladies
All quite nice, but that clear green/pearl/maple combo is just gorgeous. Congrats!
