Alleykat color question


Yorgle

Recommended Posts

I've seen some Alleykats advertised as "sunbursts" and others as "cherry sunbursts" and it looks to me that the former are a darker, browner red than the latter.  Are they, in fact, two different colors or is it just the way they look in photographs.  The thing is, I'm about 90% of the way toward pulling the trigger on buying an Alleykat, but I really don't care for the clownburst look.  I love the tobacco bursts, but they are all but non-existent in these parts, but I think I could live with the darker red-brown ones I've seen in pictures.

They came in vintage sunburst and heritage cherry burst. The colors may vary from guitar to guitar, but it sounds like you want the vintage sunburst model.

Thank you.  That should help me narrow my search.  It seems there are lots of the cherry bursts out there, but to me they look way too clownish.
