Info G&L s500 tribute

[Giorgio]

Hi, I purchased this beautiful used G&L tribute. I would like to ask you, if possible, for information on the materials. Especially the body. The year should be 2005. Thank you very much. S.N. 05117006
under the pickguard there is a label indicating G&L TS
S500 PRE-R, what does it mean?

Your photo links are not accessible, perhaps you need to change settings to make them shareable?

Here it the Internet Archive link to G&L's 2005 website page for the Tribute Series S-500 model:

I believe "PRE-R" means it is one of the PREMIUM Versons.

Hope this helps.

thank you for the reply,
should the premium version have an ash body?

try to see if the photos are visible now, if you have time

Yes, I can now see your photos.

Premium version all have a Swamp Ash body.

Your guitar has a Tobacco Sunburst finish on a Swamp Ash body with a White Pearloid pickguard.
The Hard Rock Maple neck has a Rosewood fingerboard.
