Description
G&L USA ASAT Classic Lefty Build to Order Guitar — Jet Black
This left-handed G&L USA ASAT Classic sits naturally in the left-handed player's hands with excellent weight balance and ergonomic neck geometry that lets you focus on playing, not fighting the instrument. The responsive neck facilitates quick position shifts and smooth string bending, while the punchy, articulate tone cuts through any mix with clear treble definition and woody midrange warmth. Built to order by G&L's master craftsmen, this instrument combines refined USA construction with tight tolerances and consistent hardware that stays in tune night after night on the road.
Playability & Feel
The Modern Classic neck profile with 1 11/16" nut width and 1 5/8" string spacing gives left-handed players comfortable fret access across the board. A 9.5" radius maple fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and dot inlays handles smooth legato passages and aggressive bending equally well, while the satin finish neck reduces hand fatigue during extended gigs and practice sessions.
Tone & Stage Reliability
Dual G&L ASAT Classic single-coil Alnico pickups in bridge and neck positions deliver the punchy, articulate character the ASAT is known for—responsive to your touch with clarity across the frequency spectrum. The boxed-steel bridge with individual brass saddles locks in solid sustain and precise intonation, giving you a versatile voice that performs reliably in blues, rock, country, and funk settings without compromise.
