RotcanX Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 That Olympic is way cool... an Epiphone Melody Maker. If it has a character anything like the MMs I've played it must be a hard guitar to put down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Ah...the wonderful "Royal Tan," OR just a faded burst? At any rate, a lovely Riviera! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerxst1281733995 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I don't think that's royal tan, Chuck.. Royal tan is more...... well.... tan. I could be mistaken, though.. I didn't even know what royal tan looked like until I saw a pic of the Edge playing one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie brown Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Could be, Lerxst...It's just that I recently saw another "vintage" Riviera, that looked identical, to this one, and they called it "Royal Tan!" But, maybe THEY were wrong? Who knows? It's pretty cool looking, whatever it is! I too, always thought "Royal Tan," was sans the darker edges in the "burst," and, as you say..."more 'tan!'" But, I've seen several now, with the RT designation, that had what I would have called a faded "burst," so..??? CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
