John, were those pics taken on a rooftop in Phoenix? I see Camelback Mountain in the background.

"Love those CWs, simply amazing."

I'll agree with that!
Actually, everything so far has been rather spectacular. This thread was a great idea!

I'll second some one else's thought about what a great idea this thread was. There are some really very nice guitars here. And fireglo isn't the ho-hum color I once thought it was.

Thanks Ken, John, and John. That was the best back of any I have ever seen!

The last batch of CW pics posted were of guitars that have passed through my hands but no longer own.

OK, the new color of the week (March 2 through 8) is:

Montezuma Brown! (Keep your Walnut and Autumnglo for later.)

I'll start with my two. 2004 4003 with Pickguardian custom "signature edition" guard:

And a quick shot of the 660/12 I got for my band to play:
