G&L Tribute Legacy Guitar (3 Tone Sunburst, Hard Rock Rosewood Neck) Review

I have been playing guitar for 21 years and I finally decided I wanted a strat. I read hundreds of reviews and watched tons of youtube vids of all styles because I always felt that the American Fenders were over priced (and they are). I had always heard good things about G&L and I bought this bad boy sight unseen. It is now my go to guitar. I love everything about it. I love the neck, even though it is quite different from Fender, because it is really wide all the way to the nut and it is not as thick. This thing plays better than any American strat I have played and at a fraction of the cost. Do yourself a favor if you are in the market for a strat and buy this mutha!!!

G&L Tribute Legacy HB Guitar (Natural Gloss, Hard Rock Rosewood Neck) Review

This is the first guitar I have ever bought sight unseen from the internet. The quality of the electronics are fantastic. the GL handwound pickups are miles ahead of any stock pickups I have ever played on. The PTB system lets you dial in many different sounds because of its adjustment range.
I get comments about how good this guitar looks every at every club I visit.
It is not a perfect guitar, however. Out of the box, the frets need sanding and polishing big time. Very gritty feel that eats up your high E and B strings from bends. There were a few small places on top where the poly gathered and probably dripped from as the guitar hung to dry..only seen by me, cause I know where this spot is. Also, my input jack has become loose. An easy fix, but these little annoyances should have been dealt with at the factory.
Sound and tone-wise, it is great. All the strat quack you want. Splittable humbucker in the back really gets it close to a slanted-back strat pickup.
Humbucker full on is great..plenty of growl and is able to do some serious rockin'. Great output and really pushes an amp hard vs the single coils.

G&L Tribute Legacy Guitar (Blueburst, Hard Rock Maple Neck) Review

Seeing the lack of a review for this product, I'll try to help you guys out. I've owned a Tribute Legacy for about 3 years now, and I've always loved it. I sold a Fender (MIM) Deluxe Super Strat to get it, and I've never looked back. This guitar is what the Fender Standard Strat wishes it could be, for the same price. The quality and cut of the maple used for the neck is far superior, The USA made alnico pickups sound much better than the standard Fender pickups or even the Tex-Mex pickups. The two-point fulcrum tremolo is much more usable, easier to set up, has better tuning stability, and a higher mass block for more sustain. And the Korean build quality is great, at least as good as the recent Japanese Fenders. I've owned a lot of Fenders, and always liked them, but I would put the Tribute Legacy up against any MIM or MIJ Fender and even the USA Highway 1 series. Great Guitar... only $499?? Get two!!
