That's really nice looking. Other than the pickguard, is it any different than the Asat Classic Semi-hollow?

Chambering is different. This is like an old Thinline, different from modern G&L semi-hollow. The TL removes quite a bit more wood. Specifically between the two pickups and behind the bridge. The two cavities kind of pinch together there on the TL where the channels are straight on the standard semi-hollow ASATs. The body wood for the ASAT Classic Thinline models is Alder instead of Swamp Ash used for the ASAT Classic Semi-Hollow.
