New Guy

Post by smurph1 »

Hi folks..I'm a new guy..Just bought (actually traded for) a BEAUTIFUL Natural Ash Body ASAT Classic with the gun oil maple neck..Wowzers!! Tone to the bone!! It's actually my second G&L..I sold my other custom ASAT a few years ago..and have been kicking myself ever since..(Sound Familiar?) I am also a member of the Heritage Owners Club..I play a H-535 model which is similar to a Gibson 335.. I'm very happy to be in the Club!! Scott

Welcome, Scott. I know a few of the members here own Heritage guitars too. You're in the right place!

Welcome Scott. I would like to have a Heritage, more the LP style and may find one some day. I also have several G&Ls that I traded and wish I had kept.-- Darwin

Hey Scott,

Welcome to the club. Sound that like many of us you have found some viable alternatives to the more popular brands ;)

Hi Scott,

It sounds like you have the best of both worlds, i.e. long and
short scale guitars (G&L and Heritage respectively).

Does your Heritage have the HRW or gold age pickups?

Both are outstanding.

My 535 has Seymour Duncan Seth Lover Pickups..they are fairlyhigh output non-wax-potted pickups, with what I like to call a "vintage" tone..I Love em!

I kind of think G&Ls are more Fenderish than today's Fenders, and Heritages are more Gibsonish than today's Gibsons. Welcome to the world of G&L!
