Improving Upon a Legendary Design

The G&L Fullerton Deluxe Legacy HB proves that adding new-school elements to tried-and-true designs can create something amazing. This solidbody guitar’s traditional S-style body is loaded with a compliment of Alnico V single-coil pickups that create a vintage-inspired tone straight out of the late ’50s. Aside from that, though, this guitar is nothing but innovative. A pair of tone knobs control the onboard PTB (Passive Treble and Bass) system, allowing you to cut the treble and bass individually. And the Modern Classic neck profile promotes quick and precise playing, while the Dual-Fulcrum tailpiece helps you pull off smooth vibrato. When we tested this guitar at City Music, we couldn’t get enough of its classy tone and effortless playability. We feel confident that you’ll love the G&L Fullerton Deluxe Legacy HB just as much as we did.

Born out of innovation

Don’t think of the Fullerton Deluxe Legacy HB as your standard S-type guitar. It’s no secret that Leo had a deep love for his iconic body style, but it was for a much deeper reason. A serial tinkerer, Leo thought of guitar bodies as templates for innovation, not stagnation. During his time at G&L, he began with a familiar body shape that players loved and rendered significant improvements in tone, playability, neck stability, and more. While it may have a vintage-style voice, this guitar isn’t trapped in the past. It carries Leo’s Dual-Fulcrum Tremolo bridge, and impressive electronics. A result of Leo’s unending quest for innovation, the Fullerton Deluxe Legacy HB is unlike any guitar you’ve played before.

A tone that’s straight out of the ’50s

The voice of the Tribute Legacy HB is created by a pair of single-coil pickups and a humbucker in the bridge. The two CLF-100 single-coil pickups located in the neck and middle positions create bright tones and showcase ’50s-style chime. The AW4470 humbucking pickup delivers a fat, vintage tone with textured harmonics and coil-splitting ability. And with a 5-way pickup selector switch, the Legacy HB gives you tons of usable tonal options to choose from. The tone knobs control the onboard PTB (Passive Treble and Bass) system and cut treble and bass individually to unlock new and unique tones. If you’re looking for a guitar with a vintage voice that sounds as good as it looks, you’ve found it. The G&L Tribute Legacy HB is your final destination.

Leo’s favorite creations

After founding two hugely successful guitar brands and consulting on the side, Leo Fender felt that he had unfinished business in the guitar world. Together with partner George Fullerton, G&L opened for business in 1979 and incorporated innovative design elements into their instruments, such as the Magnetic Field Design pickups, Dual-Fulcrum Vibrato, Saddle-Lock Bridge, and Bi-cut neck design. Leo was so proud of his new instruments that he famously declared that G&L’s “are the best instruments I have ever made.” Play a G&L today and experience the magic for yourself.
