Members mrbrown49 Posted February 11, 2011 Members Share Posted February 11, 2011 Something about that burst bothers me. It's too circular or something. I prefer a tear drop burst, preferably two tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fendson Posted February 11, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 11, 2011 Yeah, it is definitely not a Gibson style burst that's for sure, but I don't mind it that much. I am however leaning more towards the Natural. They have a Ruby as well. Something about that burst bothers me. It's too circular or something. I prefer a tear drop burst, preferably two tone.

Members tiltsta Posted February 11, 2011 Members Share Posted February 11, 2011 I like the natural finish. Blondes have more fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members d_dave_c Posted February 11, 2011 Members Share Posted February 11, 2011 I'm generally not a big fan of bursts. This is holding true here. Natural. Or if the Ruby is the same color as the ones in the background of the natural one, that looks pretty tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edremy Posted February 11, 2011 Members Share Posted February 11, 2011 I vote natural. The natural figuring of the wood on that guitar is just really nice and subtle. Sometimes less is more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GAS Man Posted February 11, 2011 Members Share Posted February 11, 2011 Close call for me, but I voted for the natural. But I'd be tempted to swap out that pg for something a bit less drab if I went with the natural. Maybe a tortoise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cratz2 Posted February 12, 2011 Members Share Posted February 12, 2011 I prefer the Ruby to the natural or the pictured burst. In all honesty, when I think of a big jazz box, I think of a natural colored guitar. I played a natural finished Gibson when I was in jazz band so maybe that's just always stuck. I also like the wines and dark reds and black. Not a fan of cherry bursts or tobacco bursts in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steadfastly Posted February 12, 2011 Members Share Posted February 12, 2011 I went natural but it's likely because I already own a burst so the next one will be something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundcreation Posted February 12, 2011 Members Share Posted February 12, 2011 Out of the two you posted I like the natural better. The burst on that one isn't done very nicely in my opinion. Not enough fade on the black. The transition between the colors is too sharp. I guess some people like that style but I prefer the colors to blend better.

Members Fendson Posted February 12, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 12, 2011 Thanks folks! I am still OCDing(sic) a bit, but am almost certain it is going to be the natural. Xstonr, that harm is purty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
