Searching around internet i found this beautiful gutiar on the G&L page, i'm in love with the blueburst model, but i can't get info on which is the real one.. i'll explain.
I'm from a foreign country so its either buying it from amazon, or the "official" sellers that are listed on the G&L page.
I've come across 2 models of tribute s-500: that are almost exactly the same except for a little color variation on the blueburst, and the wood in the fingerboard. What makes me doubt is that the only guitar listed in the official page is the rosewood model, but in amazon its the mapple one (which is currently out of sale for no reason) Also i see the mapple one has a whammy one, while the rosewood doesn't, but there isn't any info on why.
My doubt is, which one is the real deal? is there only one of them, or both? How can i be sure i'm getting the latest model of the guitar (lets say 2012, or 2011, or at least the last that one that was made). And from which seller i can get it with guarantee that i'm getting the real model.
Its good either maple and rosewood for me, but also i'm a little concerned that there's not a single video with a maple one in youtube.
These are the two models:
If you see closely you can see they're both S-500, and the website from which i got those images said they were "premium s-500", and i'm sure they're not, so its confusing, they're listed as official G&L sellers also.
Please help me clear this doubt so i can enjoy the guitar i'm in love with
, thanks for your time.
