No just the cherrys. So far I'd say they look very special indeed. Definitely some that were clear R9 tops.

Sounds great

I was just about to put myself back in the market but just bagged a custom shop Les Paul Axcess for only 1K

I wasn't able to resist

I Got first choice on the dirty lemons and managed to get a lovely finish.  I was after something that resembled Gary Moore's 'Stripe' guitar where the left side has a knot and the rest has a decent stripe finish (funnily enough).  I may piss off the purists but the scratchplate and humbucker covers are now off to complete the look.  Happy to post pics if anyone can help - I normally find the link just appears but no pics.

Have you tried tiny pic, I usually find that works well for me?

Cheers - I'll give that a go

I'm going through the washed cherry list at the moment. I'm struggling to decide, they're all nice!

It's tricky over photos.  I drove down to double check the one I liked from the list was actually the same in the flesh.  Thankfully I was only an hour away and it was worth the peace of mind.  Doesn't help when they are all nice.  Good luck with your selection though.  Look forward to seeing it!!

Beginning to wish I’d got on the list. I’d love to see them.

Thanks 8luesman

Unfortunately I'm about 4 to 5 hours drive away from Peach Guitars.  Was initially thinking of a nice plain top but have gone for one which could easily pass for a '59.  Can't wait to see it in the flesh!

@terada please can you post a comparison photo of vos v gloss finish?

Fortheloveofguitar

I'd love to but won't have mine for a couple of weeks  That said hopefully some others will get some photos up soon.

Currently a third of the cherrys are gone

Are they doing it one by one in order or who ordered first and then moving onto the next?

Will be a long drawn out process if doing it that way

Yep, but it has to be said its a very fair way to do it.
