Description: Leo Fender’s Legendary ASAT — Elevated with Custom Shop Specs The G&L Custom Shop ASAT Z-3 represents a truly striking spin on the ASAT formula, brandishing handpicked features that send this 6-string to a whole new level of power and performance.

Top it all off with versatile 5-position wiring and a push-pull expander switch, and the G&L Custom Shop ASAT Z-3 sings with a vibrant voice all its own.A bridge to better sound Ever the innovator, ever the perfectionist, Leo Fender also developed the Saddle-Lock bridge technology found on this ASAT. The focus was a design that would more efficiently transfer the energy of the guitar's strings more directly into the grain of the body. By using a small Allen screw on the side of the bridge that presses all the saddles together, they resonate as one, reducing the loss of the strings' vibration and bringing more energy to the pickups and the overall tone of this amazing axe.Z-coil pickups deliver single-coil character without the hum Take a look at the G&L Custom Shop ASAT Z-3, and your eyes will naturally be drawn to its unique Magnetic Field Design Z‑coil pickups — one of Leo Fender’s own magnificent innovations. These pickups sound bright and sparkly in the top end and thick and robust in the bottom end. These pickups serve up fantastic tone as is, and they are also an excellent foundation for shaping with pedals. What’s more, the G&L Custom Shop swapped out the standard Z-coil in this guitar’s bridge position for a Will Ray Hell-Billy MFD Z-coil — a pickup that retains the same versatile voice as a standard Z-coil, only with a more authoritative output. Finally, in addition to standard five-way switching, a push/pull switch gives you access to a neck plus bridge pickup combo, or even all three pickups on simultaneously.Hard rock maple and hard-wearing stainless steel No matter your style or sound, this Custom Shop G&L ASAT Z-3 is happy to accommodate thanks to its ultra-high-performance neck. Crafted from hard rock maple, this neck comes carved into G&L’s Modern “U” profile, offering a fast-feeling grip that’s further aided by the friction-free satin finish. Topside, the maple fingerboard wears a 12-inch radius and medium-jumbo frets — a combination that’s sure to please players who favor wide, multi-step bends. Moreover, these frets are made from stainless steel, which is far more resilient and resistant to wear than typical nickel-silver frets.G&L Custom Shop ASAT Z-3 Features: Crafted by the G&L Custom Shop with unique and distinctive specs Resonant swamp ash body, capped with a dazzling slab of spalted maple Hard rock maple neck in a slim, fast-playing Modern “U” profile 12-in.-radius maple fingerboard studded with hard-wearing stainless steel medium-jumbo frets G&L Saddle-Lock bridge enhances sustain and stability Neck/middle-position Z-coil MFD pickups perfectly pair with a slightly hotter Will Ray Hell-Billy MFD Z-Coil bridge pickup 5-way switch and push-pull Expander function grant you superior tonal possibilities G&L locking tuners make string changes a breeze SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Type Solidbody Body Shape Custom Shop ASAT Z3 Body Material Swamp Ash Top Material Spalted Maple Color Whiskey Body Finish Gloss Neck Material Hard Rock Maple Neck Shape MUNK (Modern U) Neck Joint Bolt-on Radius 12" Fingerboard Material Maple Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 21, Medium-Jumbo, Stainless Steel Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.625" Nut Material Bone Bridge/Tailpiece Saddle Lock Tuners G&L Locking Neck Pickup G&L MFD Z3 split-coil Middle Pickup G&L MFD Z3 split-coil Bridge Pickup G&L Will Ray Hell-Billy MFD Z-Coil Controls 1 x volume, 1 x tone (push/pull expander) Switching 5-way blade pickup switch Strings D'Addario Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
