G&L Tribute Fallout Short Scale Bass – Candy Apple Red

The G&L Tribute Fallout Short Scale Bass in striking Candy Apple Red delivers big tone in a compact, ultra-playable design. Built for players who want comfort without sacrificing power, this 30” scale bass offers a punchy, responsive feel that’s perfect for everything from studio sessions to live gigs.

At the heart of the Fallout is G&L’s renowned Magnetic Field Design (MFD) humbucking pickup, paired with a versatile 3-position mini-toggle switch. Instantly switch between parallel, split-coil, and the legendary OMG mode—inspired by the iconic L•1000—for a wide range of tones from modern clarity to vintage growl.

Designed with comfort in mind, the shorter scale length makes this bass incredibly easy to play, especially for those transitioning from guitar or looking for a more relaxed reach. Even seasoned players accustomed to full 34” scale instruments will appreciate the smooth, effortless playability.

Premium Build & Classic Design

The Fallout features a lightweight poplar body paired with a hard rock maple bolt-on neck, delivering a balanced tone with excellent sustain. Maple fingerboard shaped with G&L’s comfortable slim C profile and a modern 9.5” radius for smooth fretting across the neck.

Hardware is equally impressive, including the Leo Fender-designed Saddle-Lock bridge for enhanced resonance and stability, along with G&L tuners featuring tapered string posts for solid tuning performance. It comes strung with D’Addario nickel roundwound short scale strings for a bright, balanced tone right out of the box.
