NGD: 1996 G&L ASAT Classic

Post by culturejam »

Got this as part of a trade deal with one of my Function f(x) bros. :thumb:

Love this thing so far. The MFD pickups are great. Mostly a classic Tele sound but without most of the damn 60-cycle hum...but also not humbuckers or some kind of stacked pickup.

For you serial number collectors out there, this is one is exactly 50,000. :!!!:

Nice. If I were looking for a modernized Tele, I'd probably look at G&L before Fender, and I've got nothing against Fender.

Some V to the neck? I know G&L does some V's routinely, but I've never met one in meatspace.

Not that I can tell. It's very similar to my American Strat, but definitely a bit narrower.

Yes sir, it's a Honeyburst. :joy:
