Bursts are an acquired taste. I think I finally acquired it. Nice collection.

No acoustics with burst finishes for me... yet

I do have a couple electrics with burst though.

My kids call it the “sunset guitar” and it’s their favorite for “guitar songs” at bedtime

Aren’t they? Your guitar looks great, and Dale is a genius (and an all-around awesome dude).

I am totally into bursts. Here's a Gibson Songwriter 12 Rosewood burst....



My favorite: Corona-built Guild JF30-12. Similar burst, but jumbo!

Thanks Rudy. That's my favorite too. Just purchased recently, it's a 2007 OM/PW sitka over mahogany - just a soulful, fantastic instrument.


Lots of great guitars and pics posted here, thank you everyone! I really like this pic by Stomp, great setting, saturated colors:
