It's faster if you just type b-u-t-fl®.

Isn't that a slang term for those skimpy G-string bikini bottoms??? Oh, I see, that's fl®, not floss...

Curious, was it ever more "Red" in it's color or was that FireGlo always more towards the Autumn shading ?
Did the finish age over time ? I really like that coloring.
Thanks! You know, that's a great question. It's always been more of an 'Apricot' color as Jimmy D. at Sam Ash called it when I bought it a-way back when. The only other detailed photos I have of it are from around 10 or so years ago and I think those show it as being a lighter red BUT those photos were taken in a bright living room w/ a flash also I believe. So it would tend to look a bit more washed out. But I'd say that it seems the finish has mellowed a bit in a really good way. BTW, those other photos are somewhere here on the forum. I think if you do a search you can find then easily.
