Hi,
My sister bought me an Asat in the States in the mid eighties.
It's serial number is 020353, built in 1987. Color is creamy white.
It has 3 pickups but I don't find any other Asats with those 3 pickups.
Just wondering if anyone knows if it's a special issue or not.
Has anyone else got one of those?
Love this guitar!
thanks
Please post a photo of your guitar.
It sounds like it probably is an ASAT III, which first came out in 1988.
See the
Registry Rarebirds page.
Also see these posts in the G&L Knowledgebase:

As Elwood mentioned, the Serial Number starts with 'G' and so it is likely G020353.
Hope this helps.
