I don't have a pic of the Tobacco Sunburst, but there's a pic of a SS with the vintage sunburst on this site. The Tobacco Sunburst in the color chart looks a little darker than the vintage in this pic.

Just choose - Electric, Music Man, and The Axis Super Sport
But, I'm like you, there's not much difference.

Hi,
Isn't the tobacco sunburst just like a two tone sunburst? I think there's no red in it, like there is in the vintage sunburst. I'm not sure tho.
Drumcity guitarland in colorado had an albert lee in tobacco sb for months but it's not listed anymore unfortunately.
I have an Albert Lee in vintage sunburst and i think it's stunning. Absolutely the best guitar i ever played.
I changed the tortoise pickguard for a cream colored one, i love it.

Don't have a picture, but I bought a tobacco sunburst axis ss w/piezo and humbuckers from atlanta music brokers over the phone after they emailed me pictures of it.
A killer color (yellow and brown) and unbelievable quilt on that sucker.
It looks even better than the pictures they sent me as the dark brown looked black in the pics.

That's where I ordered my Pacific Blue SS, with piezo (but they're only 20 minutes from my house). It's one of my two favorite stores in the area.
It's only supposed to be another week and 1/2 or so. I can't wait!

Can't remember the name of the guy from AMB that sold it to me, possibly andy. I sent him a Bela Fleck and the Flecktones video as a thank you.
And if you don't know Bela, you're missin out!

Bela Fleck is an amazing player and composer. Unlike anyone you've ever heard.
But he ain't a guitar player. He plays banjo!!!!!
But it may as well be guitar. He's insane. My tastes run mostly STEVE MORSE, JOE SATRIANI, BRIAN MAY, JEFF BECK (MID 70'S)
EDDIE, CHICK COREA ELEKTRIK BAND, STEELY DAN, some jazz and classical too.
But Bela has moved into the most influential spot ahead of Steve Morse. BELA'S NEW ONE IS A 3 DISC CD CALLED LITTLE WORLDS. A few tunes are filler but theres about 20 strong ones and 15 of 'em are outstanding. You'll be spinning it for months. Trust me. One in the car, one at home, one at work.
Plus, it'll really motivate you to play.
A cheaper alternative would be to get their live video or DVD called LIVE AT THE QUICK from 2001. I found the video for 10 bucks and have probably bought 8 of them to give to people.

Now that you mentioned he plays banjo, I think my son has one of his CDs. If it's the same guy, you're right, he's amazing (plays stuff you never heard on a banjo before). Definitely not Hee Haw material.
