After extensive research I concluded it was a G&L ASAT Special Semi Hollow Butterscotch Blonde.

Like I said I was trying to make an ad in the marketplace but could find no such thumbnail this caused me to doubt my research and I would absolutely hate to attempt to sell the wrong thing.
You fine folks seem to be connoisseurs so I thought the smart thing to do would be to ask here.
I appreciate any and all help.
PS: Sorry for all the smile face things; they amuse me.

You got the Model name correct but the finish is Blonde not Butterscotch Blonde.
The body wood is Swamp Ash. The finish on your's has aged some so it looks a bit yellowed.
BTW, the ASAT Special Semi-Hollow model first came out in 1997.
Here's Butterscotch Blonde:
and here's Blonde:
Hope this helps.

That's what I thought at first, but she said the wood grain is visible through the finish.

Hi Craig,
It’s Blonde. Shipped out April 26, 2000 to Todd’s Music in Metairie, LA.
As you noted, the visible grain is the giveaway. Thanks, Craig.
