Description
The G&L Fullerton Deluxe Legacy HSS takes the familiar S-style blueprint and quietly upgrades it in all the right places. Underneath that Electric Blue finish sits a solidbody guitar loaded with Alnico V single-coil pickups, delivering the warm, chimey tone associated with the golden era of the late 1950s. But rather than stopping at vintage vibes, G&L layered in features that give players more control over their sound and feel.
- Alnico V single-coil pickups in an HSS configuration for vintage-inspired tone with added versatility
- Onboard PTB (Passive Treble and Bass) system with two dedicated tone knobs, letting you shape treble and bass independently rather than relying on a single tone control
- Modern Classic neck profile designed for fast, accurate playing across the fretboard
- Dual-Fulcrum tailpiece for stable tuning and smooth, expressive vibrato work
What makes this guitar stand out isn’t any single spec — it’s how they work together. The PTB system means you’re not stuck with generic tone shaping; you get real independent control over your low and high frequencies, opening up tonal combinations a standard single-tone-knob setup simply can’t reach. Paired with the Modern Classic neck, players get a comfortable, quick-playing feel that suits everything from vintage-style rhythm work to more modern lead lines.
Sweetwater’s team spent real time with this guitar on the bench and came away impressed by how naturally it played and how refined its tone felt across pickup positions. If you’re after an S-style guitar that respects tradition while offering genuine playability upgrades, the G&L Fullerton Deluxe Legacy HSS is worth a serious look.
