- chevron_right PRODUCTION MODEL & GENERAL INFORMATION
In addition to the Leo Fender designed G&L bridges, both the Kahler tremolo system and the Wilkinson roller nut were options on certain models. In 1998, G&L instruments underwent a major change. All models are now produced with a 4-bolt neck plate, and the serial numbers are applied decals. Unless otherwise listed, G&L guitars are available with 22-fret ebony, maple, or rosewood fingerboard with black dot or pearl dot fingerboard inlays. Current models are available in left-handed configurations at no extra charge.
The following listed models are available in these Standard finishes: Belair Green, Black, Black Silver Swirl (disc.), Blue Swirl (disc.), Candy Apple Red, Cherry burst, Cobalt Blue, Electric Blue, Emerald Blue, Fullerton Red, Gold Metallic, Gold Metallic burst (disc.), Green Swirl (disc.), Lake Placid Blue, Pearl White, Red, Blue, Green, and Black Swirl (disc.), Silver Metallic, Sparkle Black (disc.), Sparkle Purple (disc.), Sparkle Red (disc.), Sunburst, Three-Tone Sunburst, Tobacco Sunburst, Two-Tone Sunburst, Vintage White, and White.

Premier finishes are also available on the Legacy, ASAT, and ASAT Special (contact dealer for availability).

Unless otherwise listed, all G&L guitars come standard with a hard-shell Tolex case (1980 - 1991), hard-shell molded case (1992 - 2010) return to hard-shell Tolex case (2010 to present).
The past and current USA models are individually handmade which lends itself to an almost endless selection of options and upgrades. Depending on the options chosen for a particular guitar, can nearly double the current valuation and should be considered when determining the actual cost/value of any particular guitar. The "NOS" inserted into the tables of this section does not necessarily represent new pricing for a given model but rather an estimated value for an instrument in "as new" condition regardless of the year manufactured. The term "to present" does not include most 2010/2011 models.
