![]() The Regent-X has Arai's INTERMEDIATE OVAL (IO) interior fit shape.* VAS SHIELD SYSTEM So for more than three decades, Arai has pioneered different shapes – and even different proportions within those shapes – in our various helmet models, working to offer a better fit for more people. Why? Because it’s the secret to getting the best comfort and fit. No one pays more attention to the subtle variations and infinite possibilities of the human head shape than Arai. Built with the same protection as our flagship Corsair-X model, the Regent-X features a new interior for both comfort and ease of taking it on and off.Īrai is the only company offering multiple interior-fit shapes to better address the infinite variety of riders’ head shapes and sizes. We have over 25 G&L’s in stock at all times, and please feel free to browse our other listings, or contact us for information on a custom order.The all-new Arai Regent-X is designed to isolate you from distractions with the kind of comfort only Arai can deliver. We are an authorized G&L Premier dealer located in Bellingham, Massachusetts, and this is a new guitar with all tags, tools, paperwork and certificates. Whether you are a pro or serious hobbyist, the G&L Legacy is a guitar that won't let you down. For a very reasonable street price you get the type of fit, finish, hardware, and high quality electronics that makes a guitar feel crafted, not just assembled. The G&L Legacy is more than just a copy of an original. And for added measure we had this guitar built with locking tuners to prevent any string post slippage. This type of floating mechanism allows the player to bend notes upward or downward with complete confidence that the guitar will stay securely in tune. Rather than relying on a few springs and wood screws, it is an improved design that has the bridge floating on two adjustable hardened steel studs mounted in large brass body anchors. In relation to tonal capabilities, the G&L DF Vibrato is always noteworthy. While certainly not a hard rock machine, the Legacy is voiced to easily transition from blues to funk, and into the classic rock zone. Even the bridge responds well to increased gain without getting too icy or crackly. Add more gain and the Legacy thickens up, and is more rock-ready than you'd expect, with chunky mids and crystalline overtones. There is nice harmonic complexity in the high end, and chewy bottom end tones that start out dirty but clean up as they decay, perfect for blues players who like a little hair on their notes. Under mild gain settings, the tones are wonderfully expressive. The moderate output of the G&L single coils responds nicely to pedals and distortion. It's the definitive Strat® sound straight off your favorite blues album. ![]() The neck and middle pickups have a bouncy, percussive low end with a classically scooped middle, and clean highs. While not by any means a high output pickup, they have sufficient midrange content to drive distortion pedals nicely and produce fat chunky blues tones. This correlates to an early 60's specification, and while not as glassy as the later 60's CBS-era pickups, they have a little more kick and a less edgy nature. The G&L Legacy is equipped with (3) G&L Alnico V flat pole pickups that are wound in the low 6K-ohm range. Other woods like ash may look sexier, but alder is in our opinion the way to go. With firm midrange punch and a moderate top end, alder provides good sonic support for lower output Alnico pickups, and keeps them from sounding overly thin and bright. 5-way switch, volume, treble and bass controlsĪlder wood is the classic material for this type of guitar, and complements the single coil pickups nicely.Upgraded Satin vintage tint maple neck with Indian Rosewood fretboard.G&L 'Modern Classic' neck profile, 9.5" radius, 1-11/16" nut.2-Tone Fullerton Red Frost on Alder, 7.8 pounds.Respecting the past but not stuck in it, the G&L Legacy is a classic instrument for the ages. The G&L Legacy is Leo Fender's evolutionary continuation of his most famous guitar design, featuring meaningful improvements such as G&L's Dual Fulcrum Vibrato, and Passive Bass and Treble controls. ![]() It looks "older" without being physically relic'd and they also don't show fingerprints and smudges. G&L frost (satin) finishes are one of their best kept secrets, and we especially like the way it looks on Fullerton red.
