Both of my Customs are Alpine White - you can see that the older one has changed considerably - and looks like the antique. I like the "naturally" aged LP - but if you don't want to wait for it - the antique is a great choice!



Dang dice, thanks for confusing me after my mind was made up. That is something to think about though. How long did it take for your guitar to start getting the "aged" look?
Arch, that kind of worries me too. I'm a fan of things matching up color-wise. Oh well, may come down to which one is in stock when I finally order it.
Thanks all for your advice!!!!
