Musicians Friend, Music & Arts, Woodwind, Music 123 are the same company. We have allowed MF to sell these exclusive models through their additional outlets.
We are using our AP4285 P-90 and AP42105 P-90 in the ASAT Deluxe Carved Top P-90 model.
I'll check the MF sites for copy issues.

Then later in the description it says: Body wood: Alder
Wonder which it is?

I saw this model on the Guitar Center, MF, Music & Arts websites, a couple of weeks ago and checked with one of my G&L contacts.
Here's what he said:Musicians Friend, Music & Arts, Woodwind, Music 123 are the same company. We have allowed MF to sell these exclusive models through their additional outlets.
We are using our AP4285 P-90 and AP42105 P-90 in the ASAT Deluxe Carved Top P-90 model.
I'll check the MF sites for copy issues.
The description and specs listed in the Ads are not quite correct. Here are the actual specs:
ASAT Deluxe ‘Carved Top’ P-90
Finish: Butterscotch Blonde, rosewood fingerboard, gloss black headstock
Body wood: Alder with top binding
Neck wood: Hard Rock Maple with tinted gloss finish
Neck dimensions: 1 5⁄8” width at nut, 12” radius
Neck shape: Modern Slim C
Pickups
· Neck: G&L AP4285CR P-90 single coil with creme cover
· Bridge: G&L AP42105CR P-90 single coil with creme cover
Controls: 3-way toggle pickup selector
Bridge: G&L Saddle-Lock™
BTW, all of G&L P-90 pickups use Alnico magnets. See: List of pickups used in G&L guitars and Decoding the various G&L pickup part numbers.
Hope this helps.

albertmendoza has promised to post a report on his, so hopefully he will post it soon.
Regarding the specs, I mentioned earier in this thread:

My guess would be that MF used the Tribute ASAT Deluxe Carve Top specs as a template and accidently left the coil-splitter text in the Tribute ASAT Deluxe
Carved Top P-90 specs.
Hope this helps.
