Dotneck Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 They're kind of dark... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParlourMan Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 They're kind of dark... None more darker........ ;) I'm not sure if they're an oddity, or really cool........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotneck Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Now, just add an ebony bridge and fingerboard and you've got a winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParlourMan Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 I think these two really benefit from the artwork/bling. The SJ just looks too black, these look rather tasty.

devellis Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I like the look. Not sure it's what I'd choose for a guitar I owned, but it's attractive nonetheless. Fingerprints must be brutal, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_78 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I think these two really benefit from the artwork/bling. The SJ just looks too black, these look rather tasty. I agree, the black paint enhances the presence of the artwork on the guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewilyfool Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Wouldn't the "paint" finish PLUS the Nitro finish actually cause the top to vibrate less........???? Just wondering.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw...its not paint plus nitro...there is just tint in the nitro...same as a burst...just a different color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
struma6 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 The J200 and Bird in black are gorgeous!!! The SJ is nice too but, I agree with the previous assessment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilliangirl Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Those are absolutely stunning! I love how the white detail just pops right out. I like all three of them but I think the H-bird is my fav. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimt Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I had a Dove done in Ebony by Gibson Montana back in 1995 as requested by me through a Canadian dealer ...I liked it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
