I really like G&ls, but I've got to agree with you on this one. Those are some hideous guitars.

I think the wood is pretty cool. I would dig that ASAT if it had a pickguard (pickguard-less guitars are always ugly to me) and a different pickup arrangement (don't like humbuckers in teles).

My USA L-2000 Was my main gigging bass in the late 90's, early 2000. Never let me down and I beat this thing to ****

I love that finish.

Thanks, it was a rare black sparkle finish and I've only seen a handful of them pop up over the years. I will probably never sell this bass, it just rocks too much.

I've seen this called a marble finish I think there was also a red and a blue was there a green?

Not sure about the different colors, I've only seen the black "bowling ball" sparkle finish like mine. There was an awesome 5 string that popped up about a year ago and I really thought about (to have a matching 4 and 5) but I'm a 4-stringer at heart - always will be.

They're pretty rare, but that finish looks 10x better in person than what my photo shows.

I have a G&L story, it is sad too. I traded an Ibanez GIO Bass, a Korg Electribe EMX, and a casio keyboard for a '96 ASAT with the MFD pickups, it was a beautiful blueburst. I was broke and trying to sell the guitar for what it is worth. Very few people in Florida are hip to G&L. I wanted to keep it so bad... I ended up trading it for an Ibanez Iceman (with the Deactivator pickups, plays metal really well) and a couple hundred dollars. Fuck I wish I could have kept that guitar, it played and sounded so good.
Here it is:

Fuck that's a sad story. But I suppose you can always get another one some time yeah?

Someday maybe, for what I got that one for doubtful, I think I tallied it up and had less than $500 in it. That puppy was damn near mint, a couple of teeny little dents in the clearcoat on the backside, other than that nothing wrong. The hardshell case looked great too.

Now I think I'm in love. :love:

This color + neck combination look awesome.
I will need to try one of these.
