Looks great; wish the Legacy body was rear-mount to show it off better.

Yes, it could have been ordered as Legacy HSS RMC or Legacy HH RMC or S-500 RMC but maybe it was ordered as a standard Legacy, S-500, or Comanche.Danley wrote:Looks great; wish the Legacy body was rear-mount to show it off better.

Some earlier photos of these two siblings as they progressed through the finishing process:
Here's a quick glance at what's coming down the line here at the G&L Custom Shop. This ASAT Deluxe has a Spalted Alder top over Okoume.
One of two "sibling" instruments. Stay tuned for more.
Here's the second of two special pieces in the works in the G&L Custom Shop. This Legacy has a figured Spalted Alder top over Ash.
Stay tuned for more on these two special pieces.
The G&L Custom Shop Spalted Alder pair are looking sweet. Stay tuned for more.

Here is one of the Spalted Alder Siblings getting ready for hardware fitting.
Here is the other Spalted Alder Sibling getting ready for final assembly.
G&L Custom Shop This Legacy will have a parchment pickguard. The two Spalted Alder siblings will be on display at this year's Summer NAMM show in Nashville.
Just finished up this beautiful ASAT HHRMC in our new Aqua Burst over Spalted Alder with Okoume body and a DFV bridge.
The neck is hand-selected Caribean Rosewood fingerboard and Ghost Flame Maple.
This piece will be displayed at this year's Summer NAMM show in Nashville.

Not usually my cup of tea but they do look really nice.
They should have put Doheny p'ups in the ASAT- imho.

They were calling it " Aqua Burst " on one of their instagram feeds.

I have been looking at this guitar through many of its stages of production and every time I feel this pert, sassy guitar is giving me the finger just behind the bridge. Is it just me?Craig wrote:
