Re: The Guitar Topic - B
greenMonkey:
Today I went on an epic music store crawl, hitting three different music stores in the space of three hours. I played a whole bunch of electrics, and after trying and considering my other options, I've decided I am going to buy that ASAT Bluesboy Semi-Hollow. I actually played a Fender Mexican Tele Thinline w/ dual humbuckers which was going for the same price, and the G & L definitely beat it out. I also had the opportunity to play the ASAT through a brand new Fender '57 Champ re-issue, which is hand-wired and costs a ridiculous amount of money. When I actually get the guitar I'll be playing it through a Champ 600 (a lot cheaper, but similar), so I was excited to play it through pretty much the same amp.
Here's the actual guitar I'm hoping to get.

Damn man, that is hawt.
Radical AC:
Is that a tribute series? Musicians friend sells the thing for 1500. Did it fall off a truck? If not I'm so buying it from that website.
Zingoleb:
I've ordered from Musician's Friend before, and I've always been satisfied. However, you will get a ton of catalogues afterwards, but I don't really mind. I ordered a mute for my violin and have since been getting viola/violin/cello catalogues.
greenMonkey:
Oh, it's definitely a Tribute, made in Indonesia. I think the list price on it is like $800, I'll be getting it for $600. Yeah, I can't afford a US made G & L. But the quality and craftsmanship are excellent, and it plays just as well as many US made Teles I've tried.
Edit for clarity: The one on Musiciansfriend is a US made G & L, the one I'm getting is the Indonesian manufactured Tribute series.
