I Thought I'd Miss Out On Blueburst

Post by rickenbrother »

Yeah, I thought that was it for me and Blueburst, but I bought Greg Skinner's Cii. There's no better instrument to show off the color. It finally arrived after over a day of getting quite a bit of agita from an Unreliable Package Service that told me they lost it!! :shock: :twisted:
Many thanks to Greg, a great guy who got on the Unreliable Package Service even before I called him to tell him what they told me. Then then found it and it arrived a day late. Then I waited over a day to open the box. Diane was even more anxious than I was!! It looks much better in person. These photos didn't capture all the nice figure in the wood. I'll take more with sunlight.

Beautiful, Joey! Dave said it, the neck maple has really nice flame going on. If it looks this good and you say the pics don't do it justice, lets hope you get a sunny day real soon, like tomorrow. Congrats!

Really sweet, Joey. My dealer still has one on order, so I'll get to see one of those (eventually)!

Hey Joey that's beautiful,
The gold hardware looks great with the Blueburst grain showing through. Enjoy
