Dave F Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Looks like they were going for today's interpretation of a '30's burst. Close to these.    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Chummingbird In black finish that looks way, way better than the one above, but in reality is only a guitar shaped object. A friend had one ‘custom made’ by a friend of friend who is a self proclaimed acoustic guitar expert who boasted his Chummer was better than the real thing. Mine arrived with the tuning machines on back to front! I asked my luthier if he could fix them and he had a set of Kluson tulips I got him to put on, plus a 50s DeArmond soundhole pickup I had. These are the best parts of the guitar, which sits in its case as a decoy guitar in a highly visible position near the door to my music room for the crooks to take!  BluesKing777.   Edited June 21, 2019 by BluesKing777 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombywoof Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Whoa, a Norlin clown burst version of a 1930s finish. But as first place is already taken, you guys will have to limit your fight to a second place trophy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

62burst Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) ‘Woof,  that is one of the coolest bursts.  You’ve shared that image here before, but worth seeing again. Almost looks like an Argentine burst.  Love the tiger effect. Edited June 21, 2019 by 62burst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
