G&L Tribute Series Doheny in 3-Tone Sunburst with Rosewood Neck

<section class="product__description product__description--expanded"> <div class="container"> <div class="product__description--wrapper"> <p>Inspired by the classic surf sound born in Southern California, the new G&amp;L Doheny takes its name from the iconic beach in the heart of Orange County where &rsquo;60s surf pioneers became legends. Since those halcyon days, both music and surfing have evolved far beyond their roots, and so has the performance of the gear.</p> <p>Doheny takes the bolt-on offset-body into new sonic territory with newly developed Magnetic Field Design jazz pickups, the first on any production G&amp;L. Naturally, these new pickups will invite comparison to Leo&rsquo;s jumbo MFD ASAT&reg; Special pickups, given they employ a narrow bobbin aperture and broad coil splay. But Doheny&rsquo;s MFD pickups are more about jangle than twang, just as they should be for a guitar like this. With a classic jazz bobbin aperture wrapped with traditional Formvar wire, these pickups just might be the approach Leo would have taken had he been with us a few years longer.</p> <p>So what&rsquo;s it like? The sound is rich in harmonics yet surprisingly full, the result of carefully researching and applying Leo&rsquo;s creative work across the decades. The Doheny pickups deliver the experience fans have hoped for, with their flexibility maximized by the PTB* tone system that allows echoes of yesteryear while delivering more output and range for today&rsquo;s music. Add in Leo&rsquo;s finest vibrato for enhanced tuning stability and improved sustain, and the results are astounding.</p> <ul> <li>CONSTRUCTION: bolt-on</li> <li>SCALE: 25 1/2"</li> <li>PICKUPS: Leo Fender&dagger; wide-bobbin MFD single coil</li> <li>BODY WOOD: Poplar and Swamp Ash top with Poplar</li> <li>NECK WOOD: Hard-Rock Maple with Maple or Rosewood fingerboard</li> <li>NECK DIMENSIONS: 1 5/8" width at nut, 9-1/2" radius</li> <li>BRIDGE: G&amp;L Dual-Fulcrum vibrato</li> <li>CONTROLS: 3-position toggle, volume, PTB system</li> </ul> </div> </div> </section>
