Beauty and Style from G&L Guitars

G&L refers to the Tribute ASAT Classic as the final word on Leo Fender’s traditional single-cutaway bolt-on — a claim that’s hard to dispute once you play it for a while. This solidbody electric guitar is infused with sweet-sounding musicality, thanks to its sassafras body, while its medium "C"-shaped neck and 9.5-inch-radius fingerboard ensure supreme comfort and effortless playability. The ASAT Classic twangs, spanks, and clucks with the best of them, by virtue of its Leo Fender-designed Magnetic Field Design pickups, and when you flip it to the neck position, it churns out round jazz tones like it’s nobody’s business. The G&L Tribute ASAT Classic includes a classic boxed-steel bridge, sealed tuners, and an eye-grabbing gloss neck finish and 1-ply pickguard.

Sassafras body yields a gorgeous musical tone

The ASAT Classic features a solid sassafras body — a tonewood prized for its musical blend of creamy mids, ample lows, and shimmering highs. This electric guitar’s rock-solid maple neck boasts a comfortable medium "C" profile and an easy-playing 9.5-inch-radius fingerboard that’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Leo Fender-designed pickups serve up a myriad of sonic textures

You can coax a myriad of sonic textures out of the G&L Tribute ASAT Classic. A pair of Leo Fender-designed single-coil Magnetic Field Design pickups house extra-thick bar magnets that emit ultra-tight magnetic fields. This design produces a massive amount of energy around the coil, ensuring super-strong output and a muscular, percussive attack. The neck pickup is brighter, more powerful, and clearer than traditional alnico T-style neck single-coils, while the bridge pickup offers all the twang, spank, and cluck you can handle. Magnetic Field Design pickups also feature individually adjustable pole pieces to give you complete control over your tone. Whether you’re craving crisp, complex harmonics or smooth, round jazz tones, the ASAT Classic will do it.

Leo's favorite creations

After founding two hugely successful guitar brands and consulting on the side, Leo Fender felt that he had unfinished business in the guitar world. Together with partner George Fullerton, G&L opened for business in 1979 and incorporated innovative design elements into their instruments, such as the Magnetic Field Design pickups, Dual-Fulcrum Vibrato, Saddle-Lock Bridge, and Bi-cut neck design. Leo was so proud of his new instruments that he famously declared that G&L's "are the best instruments I have ever made." Play a G&L today and experience the magic for yourself.
