An Upscale Version of Leo’s Classic T-style
The Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic is an upscale version of Leo Fender’s traditional single-cutaway bolt-on electric guitar. Made in Fullerton, California, this solidbody electric is built around a sweet-sounding swamp ash body, while a Modern Classic-shaped hard-rock maple neck and smooth 9.5”-radius fingerboard ensure super-comfortable playability. The Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic twangs, spanks, and clucks like it’s nobody’s business, thanks to a set of Leo Fender-designed Magnetic Field Design pickups, and when you switch to the neck position, it delivers round jazz tones that are sure to delight. The G&L Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic includes a bevy of top-shelf features, such as a classic boxed-steel bridge, sealed-back tuners, a bone nut, and a vintage-style 1-ply black pickguard.

Swamp ash body yields a balanced musical tone
The Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic features a solid swamp ash body — a tonewood prized for its musical blend of warmth, brightness, and mix-penetrating midrange. This electric guitar’s hard-rock maple neck boasts a Modern Classic profile, which includes a 1-11/16” nut width and 1-5/8” string spacing to enable a generous edge roll for maximum comfort without string fall-off. This ultra-comfortable neck is capped by an easy-playing 9.5”-radius fingerboard that’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face. The guitarists here at Sweetwater appreciate the effortless playability of the Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic.
Leo Fender-designed pickups serve up myriad sonic textures
You can coax myriad sonic textures out of the G&L Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic. A pair of Leo Fender-designed single-coil Magnetic Field Design pickups houses extra-thick bar magnets that emit ultra-tight magnetic fields. This design produces a massive amount of energy around the coil, ensuring super-strong output and a muscular, percussive attack. The neck pickup is brighter, more powerful, and clearer than traditional alnico T-style neck single-coils, while the bridge pickup offers all the twang, spank, and cluck you can handle. Magnetic Field Design pickups also feature individually adjustable pole pieces to give you complete control over your tone. Whether you’re craving crisp, complex harmonics or smooth, round jazz tones, the Fullerton Deluxe ASAT Classic will do it.
Leo's favorite creations
After founding two hugely successful guitar brands and consulting on the side, Leo Fender felt that he had unfinished business in the guitar world. Together with partner George Fullerton, G&L opened for business in 1979 and incorporated innovative design elements into their instruments, such as the Magnetic Field Design pickups, Dual-Fulcrum Vibrato, Saddle-Lock Bridge, and Bi-cut neck design. Leo was so proud of his new instruments that he famously declared that G&L's "are the best instruments I have ever made." Play a G&L today and experience the magic for yourself.

I love this guitar!
Leo got it right
Amazing Guitar
Run it through some pedals and this guitar has serious crunch. The toughest part was heeding SW's advice to let the guitar sit for 24 hours before unpacking it to let it acclimate to your house's climate.
Also, thanks to Bryan B for excellent customer service.
Superb Value
After owning several custom shop Teles, I elected to give a "modern" G&L a try. To say I am pleased is an understatement. This guitar is fantastic. Fit and finish is as good if/not better than any high end (including Gibson Historics and Fender Custom shop) guitar I have ever purchased. Service, shipping and "the deal" exceeded my expectations.
This was the first guitar I have purchased from Sweetwater and I certainly will not be my last. Well done!
WOW!!!
