Alnico V in USA Bluesboy

Post by feare »

I've read that for a period of time the Alnico V was used instead of the Seth Lover pickup in Bluesboys. If this is true, what year(s)? Thanks.

There was the ASAT Classic "Blues Boy" Special Build version with Mahogany body/neck which had the G&L Alnico HB in place of the SD Seth Lover HB built in 2005. G&L substituted the G&L Alnico HB in place of the SD Seth Lover HB in the standard production model for a four month period some time in 2007 (I believe).

All the Tribute ASAT Classic Bluesboy models have the G&L Alnico HB in the neck position.

Hope this helps.
