List of G&L Rarebird Instruments (USA)

[Craig]

Here is a chart of the List of G&L Rarebird Instruments:

Note: Note that for our purposes, the Rarebirds are those models with a production total of 400 or less;
in addition, we make a special exception for the Broadcaster due to its "limited edition" nature (and fame).
Naturally, for any given G&L model there are going to be unique and/or otherwise rare or "one-off"
instruments - for example, the candy lemon F-100s. We do not attempt to document such intra-model
rarities here. Similarly, G&L has produced a plethora of non-production prototypes throughout the years,
and the only such prototypes that we attempt to document here are some of the more sought-after and/or
well-known examples, such as the second-style X-body Interceptors and the ASAT Customs. Custom Creation
Special Build, G&L Custom Shop instruments (except the CS 40th Anniversary models) and other periodic
Special Build instruments are not included because they do not have a set production number and date.
Finally, you'll notice that some models list "Unknown" in the "Estimated Production" column - these are models which are
thought to be quite rare, but for which precise production figures are not currently available.
