G&L Custom Shop ASAT Classic done up in Trans Purple...

Post by Craig »

Ready to rock! This ASAT Classic done up in Trans Purple over Buckeye Burl with a natural Okoume back is definitely special.
The Roasted Flame Maple neck completes the look. Headed for delivery to REvolve Guitar & Music Shop in Bartlett, Tennessee.

Yowza. That is an eye catcher on par with the metal flake finishes. Too manly for me :)

Maybe if I could play like Prince... Personally, I don't think the roasted maple neck goes well with that body color.

Yes sir, you have my attention!

Kudos to whoever came up with this combination, and no pick guard is definitely the way to go with this color and roasted neck :thumbup: (regards to Tooslowhand, I’m colorblind so I may see it a “little different” ;) )

Some good ol’ Black crinkle hardware would put it over the top, but I digress. Just want to hear some Gram Parsons or Jayhawks now.

Hey, you see what you see. :). Matters of taste are personal anyway. I don't care for it, which doesn't make it bad. I think I would have liked it with a natural flamed maple neck.

Great body finish and love the pickguard delete. Not sure about those roasted necks though.
