What Color is This?

Mon Nov 01, 2010 3:16 pm

Hi,
I'm a little embarrassed about posting this...but I'll be ordering my first G&L soon (ASAT Classic) and am spending my hard earned gig $$$ on it. So I'd like to "get it right". Don't see how I can get it wrong with so many great axes.

Anyway...I'm wondering if anyone knows what this color combo is? I found it on a photographer's website. No contact address:

It's come down to something like that, the butterscotch, or the clear orange. Check out this shot of a Bluesboy in that orange (it's for sale at a great price, btw):

So...anybody know what that color combo is, up top?

Yes, that is one of the Premier finishes and it's called Blonde. Here's one from G&L's finishes page:

Both guitar bodies are Swamp Ash. You can just barely see the ash grain show through.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Craig. It's such a beautiful combo with the whte pickguard and satin finish neck.

The Bluesboy looks good enough to eat...

Blonde is one of the best finishes on the ASAT.

Here's my blonde ASAT.

If (or should I say when) I get another ASAT, I'll almost certainly go for clear orange.

That doesn't surprise me - you only just got that stunning orange beauty!

Having a blonde guitar makes you a better husband. Honest. Try that angle.
