NancyJohnson Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 The G&L is a munter. 100%. The early headstocks were nice, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Fender complain the original design was too similar to theirs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The early headstocks were nice, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Fender complain the original design was too similar to theirs? Hence the change plus the removal of "by Leo Fender" on the decal. I have both versions, I prefer the early style one but don't notice (avoid noticing) the shape of the later one when playing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The larvae are often aggressively farmed to become tongue depressors, and the nymphs to become seaside chip forks. That's why you don't see many of these adults in the wild.
