After its release in 1982 as G&L designer, Leo's, version of a traditional double cutaway, bolt on guitar, the S-500 has grown in popularity. Technical features such as the Dual-Fulcrum™ vibrato and Magnetic Field Design™ (MFD) single coil pickups are each designed by Leo himself and add an extra edge to this classically shaped axe.
The MDF™ pickups deliver a bright and sparkly top end and robust bottom end without loosing any midrange focus. As you roll back the volume and Passive Treble and Bass system controls you'll find they become even more crisp and detailed. A push-pull expander switch on the treble pot allows different pickup variations for even more versatility with the neck and bridge combo doing a convincing variation of the ASAT™ special.
