Here's the design and features that have made the ASAT famous: 2 G&L US-made single-coil pickups, basswood body, 18:1 sealed-back tuners, hard rock-maple neck, traditional boxed steel bridge with 6 saddles, and a 3-way pickup selector and volume and tone controls
The G&L ASAT Classic is the revolutionary design by Leo Fender that takes everything Tele and makes it better. The G&L ASAT Classic features the Saddle Lock bridge which makes the bridge resonate as one mass and gives the ASAT Classic more sustain and depth than before. The G&L ASAT Classic also includes Magnetic Field Coil pickups, a proprietary G&L design, for quiet operation and incredible tone. The ASAT Classic is a country players wet dream and will even make fans out of the non-believers.
