Oh, I do too!

It’s definitely a cool looking top.
But I’m not into blue on a guitar.

I guess I’m a traditionalist.
Wood should be finished in warm colors.

Feel free to share what others you find out there.

I love rim bursts….my only one is a cobalt blue aaa hp…which has a cool, subtle rim burst…I have no good pics for some reason and I’m too depressed to find it after my beloved cowboys broke my heart for the 27th consecutive year

Not exactly sure what a RimBurst is! Is the Joe Bonamassa Bona-Burst on the left a RimBurst?

Yep, that’s the era I became a Vikes fan. I even have a Tarkenton #10 jersey (one of the good heavy ones, like a real NFL jersey). Wore it to US Bank Stadium (Vikings home field) back in 2019 for the 100th NFL season opener. My buddy wore his Alan Page #88!

Despite the Vikings/Cowboys rivalry of the 70s (don’t say Hail Mary, ha!) I always loved Roger Staubach (such a class act), Tony Dorsett, Robert Newhouse, Golden Richards, Drew Pearson, Randy White, Ed “Too Tall” Jones, Hollywood Henderson. (Used to have all their football cards. )

And always had tremendous respect for Tom Landry. Those were some great teams! I rooted for them during all their 70s SB appearances.
