G&L makes really nice guitars.  This is one of the nicest we've seen.  Weighing in at a comfortable 7.7lbs, this ASAT Z-3 Semi-Hollowbody guitar is a workhorse with a wealth of tones and killer look.  If you're not familiar the Z-3 features 3 "Z-coil" pickups. These pickups are fantastic - these are the last pickups Leo Fender ever designed.  They are single coils - with the straightforward-ness, clarity, punch and defintion you'd expect, but with a little more meat than you may have heard before.  What is coolest though, is that they are humcancelling against themselves, so you've got  absolutely no more noise.  The 5-way switch works like a tradional setup, until you engage the expansion switch which allows you to use the neck and bridge pickup together (unavailbale on a strat or nashville tele) AND all three pickups together (also, sadly unavalable on a strat or nashville tele).

   This beauty also features natrural wood binding which provides a beautiful contrast to the classic Lake Placid Blue finish.  Also the Tortise pickguard and f-hole makes sure every one knows that you are the coolest and have the best taste.
