Fireglo in Autumn

[Grey]

Me too! Does anyone have any pictures to share?

Here's one of mine from last year, hoping to take some new pics this year. I'm going to Colorado next week and might bring the Rick along.

I've seen your posts and I respect the fact that you seem to have genuine love for your 480.

Gorgeous guitars, guys! Love that Autumnglo 480.... and the flamey maple on that Capri is amazing.

The converter on the left has a stunning fireglo, as does the capri!

Why Did the old accent vibratos have those parallograms on them?

That parallogram is actually a "badge" affixed to the VB that identifies it as "Ac'cent by Paul," which is a reference (I believe) to Paul Barth. Maybe he invented it or had something to do with it. Or maybe there was another "Paul." That I don't know.

The "badge" disappeared from the Accent VB around 1963/64. If I can find a close up photo of one I'll post it.
