Re: Match your Historic to Beauty of The Burst

I finally got my copy of BOTB today. Amazing guitars. I came across page 93 (9 1876) & thought my aged Page #1 resembled it a little. Turns out that guitar is also the one on the cover.

The cover burst, 9 1876, versus my 2009 VOS R9 in iced tea; the sun makes the color more reddish....

Look great man, but why don't you try to take a photo indoors and more of a front angle.

Well the flames look very very similar. Remember that the photos of BOTB are way off.
