Hi y’all,
This red-headed sparkly girl found her way to my humble abode about three months ago, just haven’t taken time to show her off. The red glitter on top and bottom was a major draw to me grabbing this.
Have been missing a ASAT SH with big MFD’s and this came along. The custom Vintage Vibe humbucker sits right in the MFD pup space with no body mods. They look a little different than MFD’s, no step up on the sides and the string line up is a little countered but they sound really rich in this guitar. Bridge alone will bring plenty of gain or boost, middle position has a great sound from jazz to prof - reverb and a tone knob do wonders with this pup setting and the SH body - neck alone is the good ol’ MFD tone.
This guitar is great addition to the ASAT herd, that truly brings a different variety that helps it stick out from the pack. To say the least, the red glitter and matching headstock make her stick out in a crowd. I do like the Vintage Vibe bridge pup, but our own “neutralomen” has some Revel pickups he recommended which I will eventually get for the bridge and do an A/B. For the time being, this little beauty is getting lots of attention.
Happy pickin’!
