Sound & Tone
The semi-hollow alder body with F-hole adds air and a woody resonance to the classic single-coil formula, softening the attack slightly while the boxed steel bridge with brass saddles keeps sustain and note definition intact. The G&L ASAT Classic pickups cover glassy, articulate bridge twang and warmer, rounder neck fundamentals, with the middle position blending the two for a fuller rhythm voice. It suits country, roots rock, blues, and clean-to-edge-of-breakup rhythm work, and the 9.5" radius with medium jumbo frets supports bending and fast lead lines as well.

A genuine factory build-to-order instrument, it arrives with minimal cosmetic wear and includes the original gig bag.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck profile and nut width does this guitar have?
The ASAT Classic Thinline features G&L's Modern Classic neck profile with a 9.5-inch radius and 1-11/16-inch nut width, paired with medium jumbo frets and a bone nut for precise articulation and comfortable reach.
What genres and playing styles is this guitar best suited for?
This guitar excels in jazz, blues, rock, and indie—the dual single-coil pickups deliver warm, articulate tones for clean voicings and crisp definition for driven rock, but the tonal character is not optimized for metal or djent styles.
How does the semi-hollow construction affect the tone and weight?
The semi-hollow alder body with F-hole balances resonance and chime with structural rigidity and responsive sustain, resulting in a lighter, more comfortable instrument than a solid body while maintaining playability and tuning stability through the boxed steel bridge.
What hardware and electronics are included?
The guitar ships with G&L ASAT Classic single-coil pickups, a 3-way pickup selector, dedicated volume and tone controls, G&L Standard tuners, a boxed steel bridge with individual brass saddles for precise intonation, and a factory deluxe gig bag.
Is this a factory-fresh instrument?
Yes, this build-to-order example arrives in unplayed condition with minimal cosmetic wear and factory original gig bag, backed by meticulous USA manufacturing and hardware specification.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $126 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states.
