New member near Mt. Rainier
I recently made the switch over from acoustic to electric guitar by picking up a gently used 2010 Tribute Legacy. Been a week now, and I gotta say, I'm very pleased with my purchase! It's the members of this board that swung me over to the G&L side. Your praises helped to guide my decision making and for that I'm very grateful. Look forward to participating with and learning from you all.

Welcome!
In case you didn't know: "It does not exist without photos" .
Also, don't forget to add it to our G&L Registry, too.
Looking forward to seeing your Legacy.

Well, if I must.
Was never one for a black guitar but I couldn't pass this up. Great deal, even better git.
I'll get it added today.
Thanks Craig

Yowhat- Thanks for the welcome! I love this state. Moved back after a decade of bouncing around. Can no longer imagine being anywhere else. Quite the collection you've amassed, I was wide eyed looking through them all!
Fumble- I'm quite happy this far. The black is growing on me. Might have to swap out the stock perloid guard for something a bit more subdued. Sounds great! Only limited by my poor playing.

Re: New member near Mt. Rainier
I was very happy when you said you might have to change the pickguard. I was about to question that. White, black, white is the coolest looking and pretty standard, but black,white, black now that's a whole new personally. Welcome aboard.
Welcome from the deep south, Alabama.

Welcome and a very nice Legacy. I like pearloid pickguards and it snazzes the black up pretty well. The Tributes are fine guitars. -- Darwin

Nice guitar, congrats!
Somethin' about a black legacy...
personally i think the white pearloid looks good on that guitar.

Welcome! Lovely guitar, you'll get a ton of enjoyment out of it
I love the Pacific Northwest, I lived in Portland for a couple of years and have fond memories of hiking around near Mt St Helens and Mt Ranier (do you have a favourite huckleberry patch nearby?)

Re: New member near Mt. Rainier
Welcome, and a fine guitar ya got there!
Jump in often, lots of folks with helpful information and tons of G&L history.
BTW, I am a fan of the pearloid guards but either one will look great.

Re: New member near Mt. Rainier
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. It's nice to see a contingent from Cascadia on the board.
The pearl guard is growing on me a bit. Might pick up a b/w/b or parchment guard in the future but as of right now I'll stick with stock.
I'm really pleased with the guitar itself. Resonates beautifully when unplugged and sounds great with electricity running through it.
Picked us some nickel strings and with the vintage voiced flat pole pickups it's sounding really great.
Look forward to my time here.
