The G&L ASAT® Special just might be the quintessential G&L guitar, viewed by many as Leoâs ultimate single-cutaway. Back in 1985, Leo Fenderâ launched this model under the G&L Broadcaster name, which prompted a response from Fred Gretsch of Gretsch Guitars over the name just as it had thirty-five years earlier. History buffs will recall that the Broadkaster® name is owned by Gretsch, and once again, a Broadcaster from Leo was required to have its name changed. This time around, the name became âASATâ which is US military shorthand for an âAnti-Satelliteâ missile.
