Lisa, You are right... a beautiful instrument! Do you know if RainSong has any plans for a translucent style finish like the ones available through Emerald? .

You should see it on a Parlor.

I really wish they would offer an option to do abalone dots or small diamonds in lieu of the sharks. I think the guitar looks nice with the abalone, but I really don't like the fish. I would prefer a more classy look.
Also, instead of painting them, I wish they used colored resin to make the guitars. I would like an amber colored guitar body with a slightly darker brown neck, but yet still see the carbon fiber patterns which adds to the modern beauty of these instruments. That said, the burst paint jobs are very nice.

I am assuming their use of impregnated carbon fiber limits the colored clear finishes? But don't know for sure.

Personally, with the Shark inlays, a simple and classic herringbone ring around the sound hole would be more in theme.
Also if it were a Dred, things like that could be more easily forgiven. Still a classy looking axe, but the abalone sound hole inlay is too much. (IMHO)

Although I understand that opinions differ... I dig the abalone with shark inlays. .
