Acoustic guitar colors!

Gawd, I can't even bring myself to vote!

 

I prefer a J45 sunburst over a J50 natural but prefer the natural hippie austerity of a Seagull acoustic vs. any attempt at sunburst they may try. It just ain't right I tells ya!

 

But then with J200s I'm split right down the middle. Either is sexy.

Donovan had a bright green jumbo, like an SJ 200, but made, I think, by Tony Zemaitas. It featured a red star with its points emanating from the soundhole (I think). Sounds grotesque, but has grown on me as I reflect back. Weird, with character.

For me it depends on the guitar. For most acoustics I prefer natural, but a really well done sunburst can be very attractive. I know this is the acoustic forum, but for electrics I think it's even more dependant on the guitar - I have a Les Paul with a light burst (see my avatar) that I think is just about perfect for a LP, but I also have a PRS that is perfect in a natural finish.
