ASAT Tribute vs US

Post by joelwilliams »

I recently bought an ASAT Classic Tribute in Swamp Ash/Maple color, with rosewood neck.

Would love to now what the real difference is between mine and a US version.
Aside from the pickups and colors, which I already know about.

The pickups on the Tribute ASAT Classic are the same as those on the USA model.
The location of the neck pickup is different, see this post: asat classic pickguard.
Also the neck radius on the Tribute model is 9" and there are no neck size options.
The woods, electronics, and hardware are different, They are sourced in the country of origin.
The Tributes (sold in the US) come with a gig bag. The Warranty is for a two year period.

Please do add your guitar to our G&L Registry.

Hope this helps.
