About this episode
After he sold Fender and exited his collaboration with Music Man, Leo Fender founded a brand-new company that would play host to his final electric guitar and bass innovations. Leo called G&L Guitars the best instruments he ever made – the problem was that by the time he formed his new line of instruments, his accomplishments in the music industry were already etched in the history books. Could G&L Guitars REALLY compete with Fender? In this podcast, Ian and Sharon explore the history of G&L Guitars, compare some of the company’s most popular models, and take a look behind the scenes of Leo’s private workshop in Fullerton, California!
