G&L Fullerton Deluxe Fallout Shortscale Bass w/ Gig Bag, Caribbean Rosewood Fretboard, Shell Pink

Player's Perspective

G&L's Fallout model is a beautiful foray into short scale basses. This totally rad Fullerton Deluxe has arrived in a swanky Shell Pink!

Despite only having one pickup, the sound is anything from absolutely massive and powerful to bright, tight, and cutting. It's got the same electronic layout as the L-1000 model, along with a similar "P-bass on steroids" sort of voice to it. The OMG (series) mode, accessible via the mini-toggle, is like a bulldozer that will plow its way through anything you put in front of it. The single-coil mode will be bright, cutting, and sound like an old school single-coil P-bass might have (think Sting's bass tone from The Police) but with more oomph to it. In parallel mode the sound is a mix of full and warm, and tight and punchy.

It's sure to please anyone looking for that short scale sound, or players with smaller hands (or a guitarist wanting a familiar-feeling bass option) that still need to comfortably lay down the low end!

Details
