G&L Fallouts Questions

Post by SciFlyer »

Recently, some pictures of USA Fallouts with the dual fulcrum vibrato have been turning up online. I was told by G&L that wasn't an option. Has anyone here ordered a Fallout with the trem? OR, has anyone here bought a Tribute Fallout and then modded it by installing one themselves? (not sure if that is even possible) Thanks!

I figured that Darth was going to get some extra mileage out of the added fixture development and programming that was involved with the LE-2. He originally conceived the Fallout as a Saddle Lock only guitar, simple rock monster. If enough people asked for Fallout with a DF, G&L already had the heavy lifting done...

Where did you get your information???

When I saw the Fallout with DFV on G&L's Facebook page, I emailed Dave McLaren and asked
him if this is now a standard option. He said no not until August 1st when the new Price List will be released
to the G&L Dealers.

Craig,

Will this apply to the Tribute, the USA or both models?

Don't know, Dave did not mention the Tribute line because I asked only about the
US Fallout that was posted. I'll have to ask Dave, perhaps next week.

Stay tuned.

Dave said:
For the most part, we just haven't seriously considered it yet. That may come, but we've got other projects to get through first.
So only available on the US Fallout models.

Hope this helps.
