So apparently G&L is no more... Gobbled up by you guessed it Fender.

G&L obviously being the company formed by George Fullerton and Leo Fender. Leo died in 1991. George died in 2009.

Reportedly they bought it for the IP not the equipment.

I guess they figured they could find a bunch of old keys anywhere to compete with Gibson's custom shop.

Man that sucks to hear. I don't play anymore but I used to have 2 G&L's" an early 90's Legacy and a 1984 Skyhawk. Loved those guitars, especially the Skyhawk. Turned a few of my buddies on to G&L as well.

Too bad. The Rampage looks like a decent guitar too. Going to miss seeing Jerry's titty girl Rampage pop up when browsing guitars.

Lucky for him they just made him a new custom shop one last summer. He's set until he dies now.
