I am sure you have heard of Fender guitars, right? It is a name known world wide for its excellence in design, quality and sound. Fender guitars were designed and created by Leo Fender, an icon in the guitar and music world. His passion for great sounding instruments really helped to make the Fender name what it is today. So why am I telling you about Leo Fender and not G&L? G&L is the brainchild of Leo Fender. When Leo passes away in 1991 he left the G&L in the hands of a good friend of his that he respected and trusted. Leo knew that this man could take G&L instruments to what it is today and he also knew that his passion for fine hand crafted electric guitars and basses would live on in the company known as G&L.
Every decision and every instrument is made with Leo Fender in mind. There are no corners that are cut. Everything must be perfect. This includes the wood that is used during construction and the electronics that help to amplify and carry the sound. The hardware must also meet strict criteria before it is even considered to be used during the manufacturing of a G&L bass guitar.
