General
Working alongside George Fullerton, G&L guitars is the last company that Leo Fender ever lent his unparalleled knowledge and unique designs to. Since 1979, the much-loved company has been producing upstart instruments packed with masses of character and impeccable build quality. The Tribute range still bears all of this tradition and offers long-time fans and beginner-guitarists alike, full access to models like the multi-tonal and utterly cool Fallout solid-body.
The G&L Tribute Fallout: Design
The Fallout takes its cues directly from the Leo Fender designed G&L SC-2 from 1983 - a model specifically designed for the scene of its age and a guitar that helped shape the sound of Post-Punk bands like Devo and Band of Susans. Just like the original, the Fallout has an incredibly lightweight mahogany body that can be fearlessly thrown around on stage. The maple neck has a high-gloss finish to match that of the body and 22 medium jumbo frets line the light Brazilian cherry-wood fretboard with black position dots.
Hardware, a Humbucker and a P-90
Reinforced by a G&L P-90 at the neck and a super-fat AW4470B humbucker at the bridge for all of that necessary output, the Fallout is capable of dirty, irksome riffs as well as screaming hooks. A three-way pickup selection switch is placed between the volume and push-pull tone pot that can coil-tap the humbucker for even more tonal variation while the fixed G&L Saddle Lock bridge is especially solid and comes mounted with adjustable brass string saddles, and supple and highly stable tuning is assured by a set of closed oil-bed machine heads with an 18:1 ratio, finishing a brilliantly nonchalant yet incredibly reliable and versatile guitar.

Wrote the following about G&L Tribute Fallout Sonic Blue Electric Guitar
Maar nu zul je denken, waarom maar 4 sterren? Nou om verschillende redenen. 1: de tone push-pull pot, de volume pot en de schakelaar voelen echt heel goedkoop aan. Ze werken prima hoor maar de feel is echt een beetje een dooddoener. 2: de hals. Ja, ik zei eerst dat hij fantastisch was. Dat is hij ook. Maar helaas voor mij is is hij afgelakt met een high gloss lak. Ik vind zo’n zijde feel lekkerder spelen. 3: de kleur. Ik weet het, het is natuurlijk persoonlijk. Maar deze kleur doet me niet heel veel ofzo.
Mijn minpunten zijn dus wel van persoonlijke aard. Ik laat de body een andere kleur spuiten. Ik ga er beteren kwaliteit pots op zetten en ik zal de half wat opschuren. Ik weet het dat is niet goed voor de waarde van de gitaar maar voor mij wordt hij dan een gitaar for life.

The build quality is great, the fretwork excellent and the splittable pickups really do offer a great range of usable sounds.
Not a 'great guitar for the money', a great guitar period!
