For some time G&L have built in the Far East and bring with the Tribute series instruments to the start, which remain uncompromisingly faithful to the aforementioned commitment, but are conspicuous by a symphatic price.
The Tribute S-500 is a Strat in the best sense of the word. The sounds come across authentically. The bridge and bridge positions are reserved for cutting or bell-like sounds.
The workmanship is on a high level, the hardware works reliably, and the fretboard processing and lacquer finish are impeccably executed.
