Hey mike, my name is maxwell. Im 17, Im a law related relative to Leo Fender, my grandpa was lucky he and his pals used to go to his little workshop at his house in the garage and there they would watch him make the classic tele as well as go to church together and play together. He would then marry my grandpas sister and by law she would be married to him. I have nothing to do with the modern Fender family, however it is still very cool and i love to share that bit of my family history. But anyways, i love your videos everytime you make one, and i cant wait for the next. Have a good one man!

Once you go G&L, you’ll never go back to fender.

Ole school disabled gulf war army vet here! I’m taking a guitar class as therapy to help my brain rewire itself and…so knowing which fender to purchase will ensure I spend my much anticipated compensation for illness related to active duty! You young cats keep putting the content out for all to learn! Peace and love young man! I’m enjoying the lesson cause it forces me to learn to read music notes!

I love my comanche tribute. I just got a will ray Z coil bridge pickup to replace the stock bridge pickup

I think Leo's final Tele design was the one that Fender never built, partly because it just wasn't possible at the time. Fortunately G & L built it as the Espada. The original version with the split coil pickups is an amazing guitar.
-
Clarence was an innovator his whole life, the ASAT you demoed today is a testament to that.
-
I have always found it interesting that he was a part of all those guitar companies. Leo Fender himself was an interesting guy.
-
I think the original Broadcaster was Leo's finest design - because virtually everything that Fender, Music Man, & G & L has done since has been a derivative of it - even the Strat. The Tele was revolutionary. The others merely have been evolutionary.
-
Tele's are the best. I had a butterscotch one in 1968. Now I have a Custom Shop Designed 1950's style limited-edition Telecaster with 3 Broadcaster pickups and vintage tuners. I'll never sell it.

I love the history of Leo and Fender guitars.. his impact made so much good music 👋 and still does
-
Really enjoyed this video. The Bluesboy was actually designed by Tim Page from the now closed Buffalo Brother's Guitars in Carlsbad CA. They did a small special shop only run, then it became a standard model as it was so popular. My favorite G&L's are the SC series, but I have a bunch from the '80s.

I've got a couple teles and strats but I always find myself reaching for my G&Ls. I adore my ASAT but my favorite Leo design hands down, is the USA-built S-500! It's not the most expensive guitar I own, but it's my favorite! It's killer!

Leo Fender was a genius. Full stop.

Ceramic pickups are actually colder than Alnico. One of these days when I get the time and money for it. I want to try making my own pickups.

Hi Mike - I designed the G&L Bluesboy. Of course, not the first time someone slipped a Humbucker into the Tele neck position (think Albert Collins, Keith Richards, etc.). The inspiration actually came from back in 1973 I had a Fender Telecaster Custom, and I wanted to see how with G&L's quality build and incorporating the MFD at the bridge would work. Thus the Bluesboy. I did ask Seymour for his recommendation on the pickup so originally it was the '55 Seth Lover. Later, G&L would use a Paul Gagon designed humbucker which wasn't as dark. It's a toss up which is the better humbucker as everyone as their own choice and preference. But Paul's a good guy and before he retired he did a lot of great things for G&L. Also, in using the '55 Seth Lover, we had a ground plane issue that Tony Petrilla figured out and thus by the time we put into production both the solid body and the semi-hollow body versions everything was set. They were built as a Special Edition back in 1999 for our guitar shop, but it had such a great response with players that G&L made it a model around 2001. Since then it's one of their best sellers. Now I don't get anything like $ for it, but I will say the best reward has been watching players say the love the guitar. If you have any questions - feel free to reach out to me. Regards, Tim

I have an ASAT tribute and I love it more than any other guitar I've ever had

With that neck pickup, when you say warm, I would say muddy! I have one and it's great just the humbucker is pretty muddy. The pickups are hugely adjustable by using a screw driver on each polepiece. You can make them sound like a fender by screwing them down. Also the they have a fantastic brass saddle on each string for perfect intonation. A unique design you didn't mention.

just wanted to say how much I enjoy your enthusiasm, keeps an old story interesting and engaging!
