Overview

Catch the drop and carve some new sounds.

With roots in the classic '60s Southern California surf sound, G&L's latest guitar, the Doheny, is named after an iconic beach favored by early surf legends. Building on the legacy of the offset-body, bolt-on-neck guitar first developed in the late '50s, G&L modernized and updated to create a new generation that rides more than just surf but with just enough of the original vibe to keep things totally tubular.  Combining newly-developed wide bobbin Magnetic Field Design (MFD) jazz pickups that boasts an expanded frequency response and great dynamics with G&L's signature, Leo Fender-designed PTB tone circuitry, you'll find a huge range of available tones. The G&L Dual Fulcrum vibrato bridge delivers stable tuning, whether your whammy action is subtle or extreme. This is one boss guitar, whether your playing style is laid-back or completely aggro.
