G&L Tribute Superhawk Deluxe Jerry Cantrell Signature Electric Guitar
Twenty-something years ago, Jerry Cantrell bought his first G&L Rampage while working at a Dallas music store, and he still rocks ‘em hard today. But what Jerry didn’t discover at the time was the G&L Superhawk, a hard-charging model like the Rampage but equipped with twin ‘buckers. That’s changed and so will rock history.

Description
It’s been well over two decades since a G&L Superhawk was last produced. Now G&L is proud to announce the launch of the Superhawk Jerry Cantrell Signature Model, available in two USA-made versions as well as a surprisingly affordable G&L Tribute Series version.
The Tribute Series Superhawk starts out with the same soft maple body and fast-playing hard rock maple neck with ebony fingerboard as the Rampage. It even shares the same Paul Gagon designed bridge pickup, but adds a second Paul Gagon pickup in the neck position as well as a 3-position pickup selector and tone control with push/pull coil split. The Rampage’s Kahler bridge is swapped for a G&L Saddle Lock bridge for improved comfort, stronger sustain and rock-solid tuning stability. This axe is all about capturing the Jerry Cantrell feel while offering more tonal versatility. Superhawk Deluxe brings on a dark yet upscale vibe with the addition of a deep Blueburst finish over flame maple veneer on the mahogany body.
So just how good is this Tribute Series version? Well, Jerry played Tribute Series Rampages on the last AIC tour alongside his US-made ones, and there's a good chance you'll see Jerry on stage with a Tribute Series Superhawk.

My son really wanted this. He’s a big Alice In Chains fan and is back from college early and stuck with us for the summer.
It is a $500 guitar. Not amazingly but not bad either.
The fretboard is a little flat for my taste and the rosewood needed some oil. The frets are mediums. No sharp ends on any of them .
It needs a set up. All strings except g and b were buzzing. After adjusting the truss rod the Low E and A we’re still buzzing so I raised the bridge saddles a turn. It will do until I can get it to my guy to properly set it up.
The pickups are Meh. They are a little weak and thin in the bridge. I’m playing through a Boogie Triple Crown so its not the amp. The clean sounds and variety are nice.
The guitar hold its tune fairly well as I listen to him play it. He isn’t bending the heck out of the strings like I might though. The intonation throughout, out of the box, is good across the whole fret board.
The tuners are tight yet compliant. Good.
As a step up from a beginner guitar this is a good instrument. You could change out the pickups if need be and this would be a decent guitar.
If you are looking for a gig worthy guitar, I wouldn’t consider this.
