Emerging from his company CLF Research , founded in 1966, Clarence Leo Fender began the final chapter of his legendary career when he launched the G&L brand and its instruments in 1980. G&L' s instruments benefited from his lifelong creativity and innovation , and by the 1980s his groundbreaking new instruments became icons , beloved by musicians around the world. Today's G&L instruments are still manufactured at its historic factory on Fender Avenue in Fullerton, California - the birthplace of bolt-on necks.
When Leo Fender was asked what he thought of his numerous models, he himself was of the following opinion: "G&L guitars and basses are the best instruments I have ever built".
