At some point Leo had done some work on this concept and we've started it up again. We used five S-500 pickups, with two pairs configured as humbuckers. The five-way does the usual thing, the mini-toggle does series/split/parallel of the "humbuckers" (G&L bass fans know this as K-wiring on an L-2000) and a push/pull pot does the pickup expansion duty as the mini-toggle would normally do on an S-500. PTB system is standard S-500, at least so far. We're using the outside coils on the split and got some pretty authentic S-500 tones. I think we counted 19 combinations, though quantity isn't important, quality is. And yeah, that's a lot of screws, but R&D ain't supposed to be pretty. We happened to have this Greenburst S-500 around so we decided she'll do. Didn't mean to be all fancy about it. ; )

Maximize Your Tone™ With Minimum Space
Musicians the world over have been asking for a compact BBE® Sonic Stomp™ pedal to suit today’s smaller pedal boards, and the new Sonic Stomp Mini MS-92 answers the call perfectly. The MS-92 features the same all-analog BBE processor IC for equivalent performance to the larger SS-92, with a new circuit board and control layout engineered to fit the mini chassis.
Whether you’re a guitarist or bassist, get ready to be amazed. With Sonic Stomp’s proprietary BBE Sonic Maximizer technology, you’ll hear your amp cut through the band mix better with dramatically improved note definition in chords and solos. Even with a wall of distortion, the distinct harmonic elements of each note can be heard like never before. Time-based effects take on a level of realism and dimension you never thought possible. And if low-end punch is your thing, you’ll discover the Lo Contour control is the ticket to meaty chunk without the mud.

Introducing G&L Doheny: the Evolution of the Offset
Inspired by the classic surf sound born in Southern California, the new G&L Doheny™ takes its name from the iconic beach in the heart of Orange County where '60s surf pioneers became legends. Since those halcyon days, both music and surfing have evolved far beyond their roots, and so has the the performance of the gear.
Doheny takes the bolt-on offset-body into new sonic territory with newly developed Magnetic Field Design™ jazz pickups, the first on any production G&L. Naturally, these new pickups will invite comparison to Leo’s jumbo MFD™ ASAT® Special pickups, given they employ a narrow bobbin aperture and broad coil splay. But Doheny's MFD pickups are more about jangle than twang, just as they should be for a guitar like this. With a classic jazz bobbin aperture wrapped with traditional Formvar wire, these pickups just might be the approach Leo would have taken had he been with us a few years longer.
So what’s it like? The sound is rich in harmonics yet surprisingly full, the result of carefully researching and applying Leo’s creative work across the decades. The Doheny pickups deliver the experience fans have hoped for, with their flexibility maximized by the PTB tone system that allows echoes of yesteryear while delivering more output and range for today’s music. Add in Leo’s finest vibrato for enhanced tuning stability and improved sustain, and the results are astounding.
Founded by Leo Fender in 1980, G&L USA instruments continue to be made in the historic G&L facility on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California, the Birthplace of Bolt-on™.

Jeff Floro: All About Guitar
We all know the legacy Leo Fender gave us with Fender guitars and amps. But even after Fender was bought in 1965, Leo was still tinkering and constantly trying to improve his guitars and basses. In 1979 Leo started applying these improvements in creating G&L Musical Instruments. We take a look at what Leo developed and how he made his famous instruments even better. From bridge design, pickup design and more, G&L makes incredible guitars and basses! President of G&L David McLaren, Director of Marketing/Artists Relations David Brown and All About Guitar regular guest Ron Moreno will be joining us as we explore the G&L story. And I invited some very special guests to join us and check out these great guitars! So join us, tonight, 8pm Pacific time, 11pm Eastern time, at www.latalkradio.com

Another of the original Doheny test mules is back at work, now loaded with our second test pair of MFD humbuckers designed around a traditional jm pickup cover. I like this one better than the first. That one was a bit aggressive, wide open it it wants to get face-melty and wooly. Mule 2 in front is much more user friendly. I want to have that humbucker push but be able to have that MFD single coil sparkle and spank on tap.

DFS VIBRATO SYSTEM
The DFS Vibrato System made its debut on the 30th Anniversary F-100 and Legacy models and is optional on other USA G&L guitars.
This upgraded version of the DF Vibrato System brings an even higher level of performance to Leo Fender’s design. Careful R&D revealed that improvements could be achieved with subtle design changes and materials selection. The result is a more focused attack, enhanced harmonic complexity and improved sustain.
Bridge Block – The bridge block (on the underside of the bridge plate) is now CNC machined from solid 1018 cold-rolled steel. This block is the primary contributor to the the DFS Vibrato System’s improved sustain and well as fostering greater harmonic content of both individual notes and chords. The material upgrade is capitalized on by modification to the string retention holes to allow more length of the string to be captured by the block, allowing more string energy to be harnessed and transferred into the body through the pivot posts and back to the strings through the saddles.
Bridge Saddles – The DFS Tremolo System utilizes a new bridge saddle that is based on Leo Fender’s original design. The string’s “contact point” on the saddle has been refined to improve intonation, reduce string wear, and enhance attack. CNC machined from 303 non-magnetic stainless steel billet material, these saddles enhance string energy transfer to the bridge block and back again to the strings.
The result of these upgrades is a more resonant instrument where all the design elements (neck wood, body wood, pickups and the DFS Vibrato System) work more harmoniously to bring even more life and vitality to the guitar.

The spandex evolution neck has mix-n-match decals using my remastered early G&L logo with subscript I geeked out on a couple of years ago. If this single humbucker spandex evolution goes well it’ll have to be called Rampage and I’ll refine the artwork so it’s as close to 1985 period correct unless I see I can make it look better. Doing logo art was hard back then and often there were small compromises made that you would fix today in Photoshop or Illustrator. Leo would expect that I don’t just copy an old logo that’s a little jacked, he’d expect me to “fix the damn thing.”

Spending time raging on spandex evolution v1.0. Let’s take a look at the back side. On this first prototype we have a conventional neck plate but the heel has been moved inboard to accommodate the 24-fret neck. That’s what I wanted for v1.0. Do the minimum messing around to a Rampage to make this work. Next I’m gonna combine the scalloped neck access like a ‘90s G&L Climax with the body edge radius following around the body heel. Four countersunk screw ferrules like we use on some basses. That’s my plan, anyway. The goal isn’t to have the best fret access, but make it a lot better without ruining George Fullerton’s awesome double-cutaway profile.

rev3 got a Fishman active setup in there to try. I hadn’t even messed with pickup mojo in this proto (just make it work lol) but honestly, the Floyd is rad but trades some resonance so we lose some of that punch and sustain that makes Jerry sound like Jerry. I’m gonna do something conventional to put some beef back in it but meanwhile, Ron got this Fishman setup and this guitar went from meh to rock star. I’ve been raging for like an hour and the guitar is making me play way better because I’m grooving. The neighbor even came by thinking I had some gunslinger but it was just me in full spandex attack mode. Fishman did some good work here
