G&L Introduces Fullerton Standard Series Basses
Shortly after unveiling the Fullerton Deluxe line of basses, G&L has announced the accompanying Fullerton Standard Range, which also includes versions of their JB and LB-100 models. The new basses are also built in the company’s Fullerton, California shop but offer more standard finishes.
G&L offers the Fullerton Deluxe JB in either Emerald Blue with a maple fingerboard or Ruby Red with a Caribbean Rosewood fingerboard. Each version is made with an alder body that’s fitted with two of their vintage Alnico jazz pickups. Other features include a hard rock maple neck, Ultra-lite tuners with aluminum tapered string posts, and a G&L Saddle Lock bridge.
The LB-100 carries many of the same features but with two different configurations: Vintage White with a maple fingerboard and black pickguard or Emerald Blue with a Caribbean Rosewood fingerboard and 3-ply parchment pickguard. Its alder body is loaded with their vintage Alnico split-coil pickup.
The G&L Fullerton Standard JB and LB-100 basses are shipping now with street prices of $1,099.99 and $1,049.99.
