G&L ASAT Special Emerald Blue Frost Electric Guitar

The original neck pickup of the Tele® was intentionally designed to emulate the sound of a bass guitar, featuring a dark and muddy tone that was considered a distinctive characteristic. Over time, Fender made improvements to make the neck pickup more versatile, but it still remains a point of contention among players. However, Leo Fender addressed this issue with his ASAT Classic MFD pickup.

The ASAT Classic MFD pickup captures the classic round and slightly hollow Tele neck tone but with enhanced clarity, reduced compression, and a stronger attack across the entire frequency range. This improvement can be attributed to the MFD design, which utilizes a low-resistance coil and a robust ceramic magnet. The result is a pickup that cuts through the mix more effectively compared to traditional Tele pickups. By rolling off the volume slightly, the softer and more bell-like Tele tone emerges. It retains a vintage character while offering greater usability within a band setting.

Experience the best of both worlds with the ASAT Classic MFD pickup. It provides the timeless Tele neck tone with enhanced clarity, dynamics, and versatility. Whether you’re seeking the classic vintage sound or looking to make your presence known in a band context, the ASAT Classic MFD pickup delivers a remarkable performance.
