One of the very few things I don't like about Telecasters is the fact that they are so, well, slab-like. George and Leo's later Stratocaster is much more comfortable to play because of its sculpted body, especially the contoured back. This is especially important as I age, since my, ahem, beer gut seems to be expanding.
Imagine my delight when I spotted an ASAT the other day that had a contoured body! It was beautiful and comfortable...and sold to somebody else! @#$#@!
Thank you, George and Leo!
Does G&L have a specific name or model for contour- body ASATs so I'll know what to look for or to order? Are there any drawback to these bodies?
