Pickup cover (neck) on Asat Classic

Post by NickHorne »

I'm pretty sure that the Asat Classic S can be ordered with white pickup covers for the neck and middle. But can a regular 2-pup Asat Classic be had with a white neck pickup cover (so it doesn't draw attention to itself in a pearl guard on a Lemondrop axe)?

not by what the g&l page says, but the asat classic custom can be.

Just as I feared.
But this sets me thinking, about starting with a semi Bluesboy, and hanging a S500 pup from a new pickguard.
Would put it a little nearer the bridge, too. Damn, I rather like this....

You are correct on the ASAT Classic S neck pickup cover options. It is listed on the G&L Options page.

I suggest checking with your G&L dealer and ask them if you can special order an ASAT Classic with
the white pickup cover for the neck pickup.

Hope this helps.

Ah! Yes, thank you!
Those white covers must be kept somewhere....
It would make a great-looking custom. :)
