I interviewed George Fullerton in the early ‘90s for The Fender Book, my first book about Fender and its instruments. George was one of the first employees at Leo Fender’s base in Fullerton, California, coming on board at age 24 in the opening months of 1948.


I visited George in 1992 at his house on the suitably named East Harmony Lane in Fullerton and enjoyed a long and absorbing chat about the early days of the Fender company. George stayed there until 1970, when he went to Ernie Ball for a while and then, with Leo, started the G&L company. He sold his interest in G&L in 1986, and he died in 2009 at the age of 86.



Just some stuff I ran across while looking for other stuff.
