A Tele-Style Classic With Serious G&L DNA
If you've ever wanted a single-cutaway bolt-on that goes a little deeper than the usual suspects, the G&L Tribute ASAT Classic is worth a long look. Leo Fender himself considered this design the definitive statement on that classic single-cutaway format — and once you spend some time with it, it's easy to see why. Natural finish over a swamp ash body, no fluff, just a guitar that sounds and plays the way a guitar should.
This G&L Tribute ASAT Classic in Natural is in Very Good condition. The guitar is fully functional and will go through a full tech set up prior to shipping. It has play wear, some very small indents on the back of the neck and a very fine finish crack at heel. Please review the photos carefully for full condition.
The ASAT Classic keeps it honest: two G&L MFD single-coil pickups, a straightforward 3-position selector, volume, and tone — everything you need, nothing you don't. Whether you're digging into country twang, cutting blues leads, or punching through a rock mix, the controls are exactly where you'd expect them and the tones are there waiting.
Ash Body, Maple Neck — Built to Resonate
The Natural gloss finish on this guitar isn't just a cosmetic choice — it's there to show off the swamp ash body underneath. The swamp ash body pairs with a maple neck featuring a comfortable medium C profile and a 22-fret maple fingerboard. That combination gives you a bright, articulate voice with a good amount of natural sustain. Players who've spent time on this guitar tend to appreciate the way the ash body lets the higher harmonics ring clearly without sounding brittle.
The neck profile is a medium "C" shape with a 9.5-inch fretboard radius, which puts it right in the sweet spot for a wide range of playing styles — comfortable for chords, easy to maneuver for single-note runs. Scale length is the classic 25.5 inches, with 22 medium jumbo nickel frets and a 1 5/8" nut width.
MFD Pickups and a Bridge Built for Tonal Refinement
Framed in a classic boxed-steel bridge, the single-coil Magnetic Field Design bridge pickup created by Leo Fender delivers crisp attack with complex harmonics while individual brass saddles offer modern levels of intonation refinement. That bridge setup means you can actually intonate this guitar properly — a detail that matters a lot for players who push their instruments across the full range of the neck.
Flip to the single-coil MFD neck pickup and you'll find a rich tonal palette, from round clean jazz tones to thick, gritty blues. Rounding out the hardware, sealed-back tuning keys with an 18:1 ratio keep things in tune and make fine adjustments easy.
