DESCRIPTION
This 1986 G&L Invader is a killer example from G&L’s early Fullerton era, finished in Red with an ebony fretboard. The HSS pickup configuration delivers everything from clear, punchy single-coil tones to the added power of the bridge humbucker, while the three individual mini-toggle pickup switches give you more control over pickup combinations than a traditional 5-way setup.
It’s also equipped with G&L’s Dual-Fulcrum vibrato, known for its smooth action and solid feel. Between the ebony board, versatile switching system, and unmistakable early G&L hardware, this is a seriously cool ’80s player with plenty of character.
