That's the color combo I originally ordered, about three weeks before they announced Envy as an LE. I went to the shop and changed my order the day I saw it on line.

I originally went back and forth between the trans blue and the PBB. I hadn't seen any true representation of the PBB and my guess was that the pickguard would take up much of the burst effect and wouldn't be worth it.

Looking at these shots, now I'd go with the PBB. That final edge tint is just so rich.

That's my AL! :D

I agree PBB is fantastic - one thing to consider is that my picture is not really an accurate representation of what the trans blue really looks like. In real life, it's more of a translucent teal color, with more opacity. I haven't figured out how to get my camera to capture that correctly.

I don't think you can go wrong with either one though...I almost got PBB but at the last second I reckoned that a pure transparent would go better than a burst to show off the ash - really I just got stingy and needed a justification. :p

That's a killer AL, Uvacom:D ! The trans blue for me is just as stunning as the pbb plus I agree about showing off the ash...I've picked 3 trans colors (PBB, HB or TB) and one solid (WH) to choose from when the time comes. Either way, I can't go wrong!:cool:

You are soooooooo right, Robelinda! That is sweet! That's gonna make my decision even harder! Lucky for me that was one of my color choices! What will you AL lovers hit me with next??? I believe this is becoming a plot to totally make me drink the kool-aid instead of smelling it:p ! Bring out the rainbow of trans AL's!:D

Yo King- now's the time you should look at Pete DuBaldo's HSS one-off Albert Lee. That should rock your knot :cool:

Pete/Foggy? Got a good photo of that bad boy?

hallelujah and amen!!

Hahahahahaha! My AL fever is steadily rising, thanks to Spud's BCB:mad: ! My steadfast loyalty to my Silos will not be faded but one AL in the family is becoming necessary with each additional pic post and I actually dreamt about a white/white pearl/MM90/matching headstock/hardtail AL.....someone's been rocking my dreamboat!:p
