The G&L Legacy 2HB is a strat style two humbucker guitar that shares many features with the G&L Legacy HB. The difference is that it has two humbuckers: a Seymour Duncan '59 in the neck position and Seymour Duncan TB-4 at the bridge, a proven combination used for years by G&L in various models. Earlier models had Seymour Duncan a 58N humbucking pickup in the neck position with a Seymour Duncan JB humbucker in the bridge position.
The G&L Legacy 2HB has the PTB (Passive Treble and Bass) tone circuit which allows for more tonal range than a traditional strat tone circuit. The volume control has a push/pull coil-split for the bridge humbucker. The Legacy 2HB bridge is a Leo Fender-designed Dual-Fulcrum vibrato, which allows bending both up and down.The body is alder on models with standard finishes and swamp ash on those with premier finishes.
