    New G&L Tribute Series ASAT Classic Bluesboy Semi-hollow Day!

    Got a sweet deal on this brand new, still-in-the-sealed-factory-carton guitar on eBay last week, and it showed up today. The seller had acquired a number of new G&L guitars from the stock of a music store going out of business, and was selling this for 1/3 off the usual street price. I've been looking at the Bluesboy Semi-hollow model for some time, and this is my favorite color of the three versions they offer. Set-up and intonation were right on the money out of the box, and the mid-sized C-profile neck is very comfortable to play. As its name would imply, the guitar is voiced more for blues and classic rock than for a traditional Tele country spank, though it still has plenty of bite on tap with the bridge pickup. I was ready to be underwhelmed by the neck humbucker, but I'm quite impressed with it so far--excellent clarity and a nice full, round tone. Doesn't seem to get muddy too quickly when you dial up the dirt, either. And the guitar sure is nice and light! Gotta put a bunch more time on it before I render a final judgment, but so far, so good!

    If you're interested in looking into the details on this model, check out the G&L product page: http://www.glguitars.com/instruments..._new/index.asp

    Beautiful!

    G&L - Gotta love it!

    Currently owning three G&L basses, you could say I'm quite a fan of the brand.

    I should really get one of their guitars some day.

    I have an ASAT Classic S that is a pleasure to play and sounds terrific, with useful tones in every position. I know you'll really enjoy that axe.

    Sweet looking axe!

    Interesting. Do you happen to know if G&L have their own factory in Indonesia, or does Cort make them as well. I know they make several Fender guitars.

    From what I've read, the Tributes are made in Cort's Indonesian factory.
