G&L F100 Series II (Leo Fender era 1981) *WITHDRAWN*
What's Hot
Up for sale is my trusty old G&L, to fund my Baritone, so no trades, I'm afraid.
One of the first of Leo Fender's new designs for his last guitar company, made in the G&L Factory on Fender Avenue, California.
Featuring incredibly dynamic and detailed original Magnetic Field Design humbuckers, passive treble and bass cuts, three-way selector, phase switch and coil tap. The only non-original parts are the tuners, which were uprated prior to me owning it.
The serial number pins it to 1981.
Also, it's incredibly yellow!
G&L was Leo's 'hobbyshop', started in 1980 after moving on from MusicMan; never really intended for massive sales but instead for making real quality instruments. This is very much evident in this guitar. It absolutely sings in every combination of the controls, which is an amazing thing for an instrument with so much versatility built and consequently so many different voices.
This is a real player's guitar, so it's been sold in the hope that someone can go out and gig it, instead of it being cooped up in the studio.
Looking for £650
Drop me a message if you'd like any more info or pictures. Comes with a gigbag.Thanks!

Strats of the same era are horribly cheap in comparison, but inflatedly priced; the irony of having the name on the headstock, as opposed to the man actually building it!

To quote G&L Chronology:
"Color options in the 1980's were endless. At that time you could order a guitar with any color providing we could find the shade you wanted. Colors ranged from Russell Leach's Hot Pink Interceptor (not only is this a rare color, but the Interceptor has the second body style that was never put into production, only 8 – 12 of these "X" bodies exist in any color) to Jim DePitt's bright Yellow Invader."
