    I'm surprised, but I like the Tort on that.

    Usually I don't like tort.

    In the Gibson tradition, Juniors get single ply black, Specials could have multiple ply or tort. 

    As mentioned above, black knobs with white numbers.


    EDIT - Stuff tradition. Mirror would look ever so Phil Lynott.

    Too much gain... is just about enough \m/

    That particular tort - definitely black.

    A decent-looking tort - probably prefer tort.

    Would also prefer a fingerboard that looked like it was made of rosewood instead of stained pine.

    A good leather dye will solve that.

    Make it nice and dark. Fiebings is the dye of choice on basschat.

    The tort. It has way more character. All black is such an overrated look.

    Those look amazing!

    Pretty annoying that they refuse to mention prices, that always means that they are obscenely expensive so ultimately it's a no from me.
