Gigbag Included

There is ASAT Classic and there is ASAT Special. They are twins in terms of shape but the hardware is totally different. Special has these wide soapbox-like MFD Jumbo pickups, and thanks to them - a luxurious, huge, slightly rough tone, born in these unique pickups with a wild character.
 
They sound a bit like vintage P-90 or Jazzmaster, but with even more power. They produce beefier low end and brighter high harmonics. The vibration is then picked up by the body out of carefully selected alder and is saturated with a myriad of overtones. As a result, even the most ordinary sequence of chords turns into an acoustic delight. Just like Adam gave names to animals, so the guys at G&L have the prerogative to name their instruments and their colors.

Every guitar in our store is completely checked and set up by our guitar luthiers so that the guitar is easy to play yet without buzz. And if you have any special wishes regarding setup - tell us (or specify) when making an order and we will be happy to make a perfect guitar for you :)

Also, you have to keep in mind that wood is a living material. Guitar’s geometry changes a little over time, adjusting to temperature and humidity, so there is no setup that can last forever. To save you a headache, we have a free setup service for our instruments! If you feel that something is off you can bring it to us so that we can return everything to it’s perfect original state.

For online orders we manually pack each guitar into a ton of wraps and carton and also have full insurance for all our shippings. So that you wouldn’t worry that something might happen on the way.

MFD Magneti

Kao prepoznatljiva karakteristika G&L gitara, Magnetic Field Design (MFD) magneti nalaze se na većini njihovih električnih gitara i bas gitara i smatraju se jednim od ključnih elemenata njihovog zvuka. Premestivši magnetsko polje na vrh magneta, umesto u sredinu, MFD magneti pružaju responzivan ton sa izuzetnom jasnoćom i širokim frekventnim opsegom. Leo Fender je ovo postigao tako što je konstruisao MFD magnete koristeći keramički magnet u obliku šipke (postavljen ispod svake zavojnice) i meke čelične polne komade. MFD magneti takođe proizvode približno dvostruko veći izlaz po zavojnici, što ih čini manje šumnim od većine klasičnih magneta, dok istovremeno omogućavaju veći ukupni izlaz. Njihova izuzetna karakteristika su podesivi polni komadi, koji omogućavaju gitaristima da prilagode visinu svakog komada kako bi personalizovali izlaz žica i eksperimentisali sa EQ postavkama. Kao rezultat, ovi magneti proizvode manje šuma, imaju veoma širok dinamički opseg i veću izlaznu snagu, a pritom zadržavaju kristalno čist ton koji svi volimo.

Saddle Lock Bridge

G&L Saddle-Lock™ bridž predstavlja vrhunac inovativnog inženjeringa Lea Fender-a. Opremljen je velikim izbočenjem na donjoj strani, koje se precizno uklapa u izdubljeni deo tela gitare, optimizujući kontakt za bolji prenos vibracija žica. Rezultat je značajno poboljšan sustain u poređenju sa tradicionalnim fiksnim bridževima. Čvrstim sidrenjem bridža za telo gitare, G&L postiže superiornu rezonancu i bogatstvo tona. Dizajn sedla Lea Fender-a takođe smanjuje pucanje žica i obezbeđuje konstantne performanse. Sve u svemu, Saddle-Lock bridž oličava Fender-ovo nasleđe inovacija i posvećenost proizvodnji visokokvalitetnih i pouzdanih instrumenata.
