IMHO the bold green wash over the veneer is the stroke of genius! What mad skills can visualize such a thing.

Sorry. I was giddy from lots of outdoor jam sessions as a reprieve from months of shut down.

Yes, deep deep. Deep south in New Orleans where small Second Line tribal practise versions of Mardi Gras parades occurred weekly.

James Crawford, an engineer and part-time jazz musician, wrote 'Jock o Mo' in 1953, later known as 'Iko Iko', as a jokey description of the cheerful taunting patois that happened when tribal parades crossed paths

I'm wondering if Emerald Guitars is serious about all that Irish green stuff, or being jokey in seeing how far customers will buy into shark jumping.


Cheers.

My ex-wife once famously said about me, "What can you say about somebody whose favorite color is tan" so it's it's safe to say that the object of this thread is not my thing. But I'm sure that it is somebody else's thing...

Alistair has mentioned in shipping videos that the green tint is his favorite for the carbon tops (and also mine). I don’t think there is any ulterior motive involved. IMO the green tone over the wood veneer is unique and spectacular, but I can see why it might not be for everyone.

And, don’t forget...
