HI Hesh

I was being silly, I meant more like this





Sorry Hesh I'm sure you are getting sick of us all going on at you I'm only having fun with you, I will stop it now.


BTW I like bursts on electric guitars, and your PRS is a very nice one, nice guitar as well I should think, i saw one done in blues it look fantastic.

[QUOTE=Hesh1956] Steve I am not kidding here but I kind of wanted a gloss black front until I saw Lance's root beer burst. Any way the front is the only thing that will be bursted and the rest will be natural.[/QUOTE]

That would look HOT!!! Have you seen John Monteleone's Black & Tan Mandolin. It looks great. I think you could get a similar effect with this.

I think a burst would look good (but I am not so sure about a "vintage" burst. ... a honey amber one would look great though....)

Exactly what I was thinking Brock. A very very light brown on the outside, but ambering up into the middle to almost natural would look quite nice...like the PRS above, but with light brown (with a hint of orange) to amber. That would look really good.

Here's kind of what I was thinking....it's a picture of The Man himself....Kim Walker. The subtle burst shown here on the guitar just to his right would look great on your guitar Hesh:

Not so...you've already built a killer guitar!
We would just like to see you keep it that way!
