G7th Newport
Tribute S-500 Sonic Blue
The G&L S-500 debuted in 1982 as Leo's own evolution of the traditional bolt-on, double-cutaway axe, offering innovations such as Dual-Fulcrum vibrato and Magnetic Field Design single-coil pickups, each designed by Leo Fender himself. These MFD pickups offer a bright, shiny top end and a robust bottom end, all without losing midrange focus.You'll find plenty of punch in the MFD pickups, but what's surprising is how glassy and detailed they become when you turn down the volume and bass controls, the latter of which is part of the S-500's PTB (Passive Treble and Bass) system that works on all three pickups. In addition, the G&L Tribute Series S-500 includes a push-pull extension switch on the treble knob to allow neck + bridge or all three pickups together. In a pinch, the neck + bridge combo makes a convincing faux ASAT Special. Talk about versatile!The new G&L Tribute Series S-500 features one of Leo's favorite pairings: the power of MFD pickups softened by the high porosity of a nato body. Making the most of this delightful combo is Leo's Dual-Fulcrum vibrato, a work of art that allows you to bend up or down with unparalleled stability, while offering a silky smooth feel thanks to its sturdy aluminum vibrato arm.
