The Lacewood Commemorative - total of 7 made
The Buck Owens Asat Classic - total of 3 made
The original Asat signature - total of 1 made (the signature on this one is Leo Fenders actual autograph)
The HG1 - unkown number built but according to Dale Hyatt, they do exsist.
The Broadcaster
While the Broadcasters aren't as rare as the others, some were/are owned by people of celebrity status eg. Dale Hyatt, George Fullerton etc. and of coarse they have Leo Fenders signature in the neck pocket.
There are others that are extremely rare and little known such as the S300, the T400, the Marquie, and a few of the interceptors one of which was owned and kept by Leo Fender. Interestingly enough, Leo wasn't all that fond of the Interceptors and he wasn't a player.
Some pictures to follow.

For some education for me, could i ask if there is a particular model of the Leo era guitars that is regarded as the Holy Grail of them all. I guess there might be differing views and accepting that i would love to know who the contenders would be,, Would any production models get into the final shoot out i was wondering. I would love to know you thoughts.
OK, its Friday here, the sun has set, off to the club for some fun.
Have a great weekend all and take care
