I'm guessing that this.....

...is a good representation fo what Black Sugar looks like when not over exposed with camera flash.

Umm not really, it is very, very hard to take pics of, this is one that needs to be seen in person. I am going to see about some pics this Friday, but again either to much exposure or not enough and it just looks black, trust me fing killer color!!

 

[fogman]

really?

is it more sparkly?
or the colour deeper and more 3 dimensional?

Both, the sparkles are subdued and subtle but can jump out and it is a very deep and rich color.

Dont get me wrong that pic was good but have yet to see one that totally captures it.

The limited black magic crystal was the same way

thanks Keith.

but is that pic the closest we've seen on the forum so far to the real thing?

Yes and no, it is a good pic of one of the many aspects of the color, but again a very complex color, lots going on inside this one

Anyone else who has seen it in person have a thought??

So what else is new about EBMM finishes? Even Sequoia Gold and that killer DD2 finish or Barolo were extremely hard to capture. BP and Gang always manage to come up with fantastic finishes that stun in person, but are extremely difficult to capture.

The BFR Sting Ray neck was slamming. I think I have a good idea of the finish by the Drum City pics. The guitar seems to be kind of Mystic Dreamish, looking like basic black to all sparkly depending on the light.

 

[shredhed]

wow....


thanks for that

OK, well back on subject, the first pics are closer than the rest, thought I might have some new pics but my GC's order did not arrive for Black Friday, so no Black Sugar on Black Friday

But I did have some CFB fun today
