What's the difference?

[StratsRock]

I have an Invader XL Standard with a saddle lock bridge. I'm thinking of ordering either a Legacy Deluxe or an Invader Deluxe with a #1 neck and dual fulcrum tremelo. What's the difference between the two models? The body shape is slightly different from what I can tell....anything else? Thanks for your comments!

Hmm, have not heard of an Invader Deluxe, only the Invader, Invader Plus and Invader XL. Here's a link to G&L current USA models.
You should be able to see the specs and options for the models you are interested in.

Hope this helps.

Oops...I was probably thinking ahead to the Legacy deluxe. My goal is to get a twin to my Invader XL Standard but with a G&L tremolo & HSS pickup configuration. Since my XL has a 1 5/8 nut, which I believe is a #1 neck, I became somewhat interested in going the Legacy Deluxe with no top route. My curiosity lies with the differences in the body & what those differences are along with any other variations in measurement, shape or length. Of course I am assuming I could order a twin Invader with G&L dual fulcrum tremolo. If not, then the Legacy Deluxe would be close from what I can tell.

I don't think that G&L offers the Invader XL with the DF trem. The only trem bridge is the Floyd Rose USA locking vibrato system, according to the G&L website. However, I suggest you contact your local G&L dealer and ask them to find out if you can
special order one with the DF trem. Certainly won't hurt to ask.

Yes, your Invader XL Standard Fullerton has the #1 neck. The current Invader models have the #3 neck (1 11/16 nut width). Also, another difference between the Invader XL Fullerton Standard and the Invader XL, is that the pickups are G&L's alnico humbuckers, while the current Invader XL has Seymour Duncan pickups (Neck - Seymour Duncan '59 SH-1, Bridge - Seymour Duncan TB-4).

Hope this helps.

The color is Blackburst, it is a Premier finish.

Here's G&L picture found in the USA Finishes page:
