I love your Birthday Burst ( did I say that correctly ? ) Such great figure and color !Faded Southern Iced Washed Cherry Teaburst..., with a Lemon Twist lol
All joking aside, Gibson has 350 names for 4 or 5 colors....and after a while 99% of them look the same to me.
Other than Dirty Green Lemon or Green Onions or whatever its called, I cant tell the difference.
With the purpose being to have a Cherry SB having gone through various stages of aging and fading, one man's Iced Tea is another man's faded washed cherry...etc
for example...my '20 60th Anniv R0. This is a one off color.....trans amber center, with more of a brownish-red rim, with a brown back/sides/neck stain, instead of red stain/dye.
People have said..."I love your Iced Teaburst" or "Is that Washed Cherry".. Ive been in shops where two brand new Historics are next to each other, colors looking identical, but listed with different colors
I have to give it to the guys in marketing...they've done their job
