First set of photos from the Factory for 2014 ...

[Craig]

Here are the first set of photos for 2014, which were posted on G&L's Facebook page:

Here's an interesting combo: an S-500 in Sonic Blue with a 3-ply creme pickguard, black covers and knobs.
What do you think?

We love Fallouts, and we were just rocking this Candy Apple Red one through a BBE Blacksmith distortion,
a pedal we love. Suddenly there's five people here demanding to have a go.

Here's a Fallout in Yellow Fever with 3-ply black pickguard. Rocking it with the BBE Blacksmith.

This L-2500 in Clear Red over swamp ash with matching headstock was completed five minutes ago.
Clear Red has looked great on G&Ls for around thirty years. What do you think?

beautiful swamp ash with natural gloss finish has looked great on G&Ls for more than three decades.

Here's a Legacy Deluxe in 2-Tone Sunburst with wood binding, rosewood fingerboard and Vintage Tint Satin neck finish.
We think this combo is beautiful. What do you think?

Here's a lefthand L-2000 in Natural Gloss over swamp ash. Lovely and Lefty.

Here's a Comanche in Honeyburst, flame maple over swamp ash, bird's eye maple neck with Vintage Tint Gloss finish,
topped with a pearl pickguard. We love it.

Here's an ASAT Semi-Hollow in Natural Gloss over swamp ash. Many say the original ASAT is the quintessential G&L guitar.
What do you say?

Here's an SB-1 in Royal Purple Metallic with a pearl pickguard. Who digs this?

Note: I believe this is actually an LB-100.



And, a couple of photos shot from inside Leo's Lab:

Inside Leo's lab: his Interstate log-linear sweep generator. It remains operational.

Inside Leo's lab: concept 5-string bass headstock dated August 18, 1986.

I am sort of happy to see that Comanche design (flamed top, honeyburst, birdseye, etc.) still being built. That is a perfect example. I'd like an S-500 with those options. A burst looks its best with a fine quilt or flamed top. This one is nicely mirror-matched too. As much as I like the Comanche and all of the beautiful grains coming through in the transparent finished guitars here I like the cream pickguard over the sonic blue on the S-500. I think the vintage Strat styling is grabbing me.
