dark cherry burst for me

 

[Jack FFR1846]

I've seen amazing finishes in a variety of colors. Some favorites.....

Dark Cherry Burst (my Al is the best!)
I think it's called Ruby Redburst (have seen it on a quilted BFR Luke)
Emerald green trans over quilt or flame....both are awesome.
Cherry burst (I think it's one of the best Axis finishes there are).

I do tend to like transparant finishes better. I like to see the wood.

Blue Dawn!

 

[Roubster]

There are definitely a few that I like. EBMM does amazing work with both solid and trans finishes. Here are some of my favorite:

Carbon Blue Pearl
Y2D Purple Sunset
Olive Gold
Tobacco Burst
Black Burst on the Darklords
Venetian Burst on 25ths

Graphite Pearl
Barolo
Purple Sunset
Mystic Dream

Same as Dr K - I prefer solids - but my collection hasn't panned out that way!!!

Black

Black Cherry Burst

... and what about that Knucklehead's Albert Lee that looks like the Gibson S.G. Cherry finish - that giutar looked like a 50 year old "classic" - but it was straight out of the box!!

Blue Dawn.

I nearly had an original Blue Dawn JP a few weeks ago - fully loaded and CHEAP! GC got one in used and I hesitated in calling. I was informed I was the 15th caller If one of you knucleheads scored it - I hate you.

 

[auxren]

Call me boring, but I love the white guitars MM makes. White Reflex with black binding... oh baby baby

 

[GWDavis28]

The sparkle finishes are the best!!!

White Sparkle

Fushcia Sparkle (1 of a kind)

Gold Sparkle

Copper Pink Sparkle (1 of a kind)

Original Blue Dawn

Silver Sparkle

Autumn Redrise Sparkle

Autumn Redburst Sparkle

Black Sparkle, but was never able to locate a guitar that I liked in this color. Very cool color though.

Finally, the original Dargie Delight.

Blue Dawn!

I'm with you, Pete. When the light catches it just right, Blue Dawn is breathtaking.

But, at the same time, I can't imagine my trusty JP6 in anything but PRB...

Like this one?

Yes, Emerald Green is my favorite (who needs those brown back tributes? lol)

 

[peterd79]

My absolute favorite finish on Music Man guitars is the Mint Green...

For as long as i can recall i've always had a thing for that color of guitars... I've always wanted a guitar in that color and had one a few years back (NON-EBMM) and sold it because it wasn't a great playing guitar nor did it sound good.
Then BP and Crew made a silhouette special that i was able to get my hands on and it's my #1 and just love that guitar

So my vote is for MINT GREEN

 

[paranoid70]

Blue Dawn is great. Some of the 'retro' colors on the classic Silhouette Specials and Stingrays are really nice too.
