Description
Sound & Tone
The pair of G&L ASAT Classic single-coil Alnico pickups gives this Thinline a bright, bell-like voice with plenty of articulation — snappy and cutting at the bridge, rounder and woodier at the neck, with the 3-position selector blending the two for a hollower midrange. The alder body and hard rock maple neck and fingerboard add clarity and projection, while the light 6.05 lb build and boxed steel bridge with brass saddles keep the response quick and the sustain even. It lands squarely in country, roots, blues, surf and jangly rock territory, and the 9.5" radius with a Modern Classic profile handles both fingerstyle chording and pick-driven lead work.
