Ohh I found another pic of this beauty in the vault !!!

I hear ya, Miss Honey isnt a newer Historic ,but its fooled alot of folks so far, She is drop dead gorgeous in looks and tone, My buddy Stu is relentless in trying to offer me cash for it, and he kiss's it everytime I let em play it, LOL . His early 59 Re Issue is no slouch for looks or tone either, I swear that guitar is a Guitar Trader " extra" has nitrocell laquer and came with the Shaw PAF's

For this week's Burst pic of the week I have chosen a stunning 1958 plaintop # 8-6897 .... Just goes to show plaintops can be just as beautiful as flamed Burst's !! Please post a comment and let me know what you think !!

midnite buddy
burst is the color (sunburst) has nuthing to do with flames.
Tried to explain that to ya before
You dont call a Gold top A Gold Burst now do ya

LoKi · 10-07-2007, 12:32 AM

I love that plaintop! I wonder what the burst looks like in person though... sometimes the cameras can pick up more or less of the red thats has/hasn't faded... but if she looks just like she does in the photos, damn thats HOT!

10-07-2007, 08:20 AM

I'm kinda partial to Plaintops myself.

BOBBO · 10-07-2007, 10:13 AM

Glad you guys like it !!! Don't be afraid to post a comment people , It makes me feel appreciated

Here's a better pic of her !

lp59aholicDon · 10-09-2007, 05:05 AM

earlier this year I was in the local Gibson shop, and Jerry had a nice 58 tobacco burst plain, bout 8,25 lbs according to Jerry who weighed it Neck was more like a 59 though but gawd the tone was great , I was bout to dump a whole lotta gear to negotiate a deal , a week later this 27 year old guy comes in and buys it, and a Hendrix Re Issue Full stack
the clincher too was the guitar was faded

guitarguru · 10-09-2007, 05:44 AM

Looks like a time capsule with no fading.

Actually vintage LP's had alot more red in them !! This one has faded a bit ! You're just used to seeing what the custom shop considers cherryburst ! Also Gibson now paint the VOS like they have faded already ... Look at some 60 bursts and you'll see how much more red was there !

Flick , If your gonna consolidate the thread rename it .. Either Bobbo's Burst of the week or Bobbo's Burst Pic of the Week .. I'll leave it up to you !!

BOBBO · 10-12-2007, 09:11 PM

Every week a new beautiful vintage guitar to feast your eyes on !! Here we have a 1960 burst obviously made using the later red dye that does not fade , This is what a burst looks like without any fading , Notice the wide outer band of red is very far toward the center !!

58's & 59's had the same amount of red but thier analine red dye faded so you get the mix of vintage cherry , iced tea , tobbacco and lemondrop examples .. Now 60's had a more tangerine color to them but the size of the red band is about the same as previous burst's ..
