Tribute ASAT special Routing?

Post by nascarbean_97 »

Is the ASAT special tribute swimming pool routed, or a tight fit around the pickups? Thanks

They have individual pickup routs, not swimming pool routed.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much! Just wondering because i'm thinking a clear pickguard could be a cool mod...

You should definitely take the existing pickguard off before ordering a clear guard. There might be a rout for the wiring
that is hidden under the pickguard. I don't have a picture of an ASAT Special without the pickguard, but here is an ASAT Classic body without the pickguard:

Hope this helps.
