GAS is really strong right now. Cherry on top of my growing collection.

I'm going to look at two guitars that I don't need, at all. But want.
I don't have a cherry burst LP. I want one in my collection. Going to look at these two. Why oh why oh why?!?!?!

Because,because because!

Because a cherry burst is second only to a gold top.

Eh, Because...

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!

Because a cherry burst is second only to a gold top.

For the win!

We’ve all said that at one time or the other! It gets worse, believe me.

I didn't buy any LPs last year. I could have, but I picked a Tele and a bunch of obscure models to bulk up my collection.

Both are awesome...

my holy trinity is
goldtop
hcb
bb

The first one looks like a 2008-model Standard with chambered body, asymmetrical fat neck, printed circuit board and Neutrik jack.. It looks great but you'll have to like the specs.

I have a Tribute GT, had a BB many years ago, have yet to own a cherry burst. Maybe a '70s Deluxe some day. Or at least a Trad or a '50s Standard (original collection.)

Because a cherry burst is second only to a gold top.

The only correct answer.

Nice, can't go wrong with either one. Pick the one that feels best and speaks out to you the most.

 

[JaxLPGuy]

Hmm, I'd have to go for the bottom one. Dreamy.

Just got home. I bought one of the two pictured in the OP.

I did.

So..?
Which one?
Congratulations.

Better neck. No flame, but the grain is excellent. Looks different depending on the angle from which you're looking at the top.

I'll do a post with some good pictures in some good light. Hopefully, tomorrow. These are from their website.

So jelly.
