Re: Amazing Finish Limited Edition Standard

That finish is definitely an acquired taste...kind of like sushi. The sprayer at Gibson must've got drunk one day while spraying sunbursts and grabbed the gold gun by accident.


I'm still waiting for them to spray a reverse burst; light on the edges and dark in the middle. If we ever see this finish, we'll know that Gibson's journey to the Dark Side will be complete....

Wrong. Hundreds were made with the Caffe Latte finish.
