Using the flash kind of brings out the "clownburst" in this but in natural light it has a very nice shade IMO.

That's absolutely gorgeous! Congrats! And welcome to the MLP. What year is your R8?

If my memory serves me correctly its a 2003 (perhaps 2002).

Thanks for the welcome. Just found this forum from a recommendation over on the Birds&Moons forum.

It's likely not an '03 because there were verrrrrry few flametop R8s produced in '03.

You can tell by the serial number on the headstock. If, indeed, this guitar is an R8, the first digit would be an 8, which would indicate an R8 ('58 reissue), and the second digit would indicate the year built. So if the second digit is a 2, then it would be a 2002 model, a 1 would be a 2001 model, an 8 would indicate a '98, etc.

I prefer a middle of the road flame top. Not a big fan of the "silk sheet" look. This is a picture of my 2007 "59" VOS in tea burst.
