All of the G&Ls I've ever seen look identical to a Strat or a Tele....like these. There's one guitar on this page under $1,200! $599....Check these out.....

Quote from: wiley on April 02, 2009, 07:12:12 PMwhen I bough my first electric I bought it out of Kalamazoo MI.  It is called a G&L SC.2  The guy in the music store told me that the original guy that made Fender sold his name etc.  for the money.  AND that this was the guitar he chose to make next.  So according to him  Fender is no longer made by the guy that originally made them.  Anyone got input on this.  And What actually is my guitar?  Thanks

Here's a review of the G&L SC-2 from Vintage Guitar Magazine:

Apparently, it sounds a lot like a Telecaster?

And here's the home page for G&L Guitars:

Leo Fender died in 1991. Although the company continues to make guitars, I would think that instruments manufactured during Leo Fender's reign will appreciate more than recent models. So you might want to hang onto that guitar.

According to this Vintage Guitar Magazine Price Guide, a 1982-1983 SC-2 in excellent condition was valued between $475 and $700 in 2006. The 2009 edition of the Vintage Guitar Magazine Price Guide is available here:

It's simple. Just find an image on some website, right-click on it and select "Copy Image Location" from the context menu (I use Firefox but other web browsers should have a similar context menu option, although the name may be slightly different). When you create your message, click on the Insert Image icon. It will insert the following text into your message:

[img][/img]

Now you can simply paste the link between the two [img] tags.

"the little picture and link thing at the bottom of your post" is an attachment. But there's no need to attach an image that already exisits somewhere else on the web. You can just link to it directly instead, as I've described above.

You have a wonderful guitar!  I live 25 miles from fullerton and G&L's are rare around here, though more common then most places it seems. 
I have a G&L tribute s500 and LOVE IT, that said it not an american model like yours.  I like the G&L pups. 
Funny story, I met a guy whos uncle works at the G&L factory, he said that Leo's office was sealed the day he died.  I told him I had heard something like that and he told me that Leo's ghost frequents the factory!
