Oh, and that Jizzburst one.

I do like flames, but I like it to be a bit more subtle, not brought out so stridently by stains. My Les Paul (in my profile pic) is more to my taste. From some angles it looks like a plain top, others flames appear - but it's all quite subtle. I like the little imperfections like minerals and the like. The veneer on my Chapman (of all things!) is really nice and shows off this flame/no flame thing from different angles - it's nicer than the stripy veneer on my PRS SE 245.
I do like spalted tops. Really like burl too - as long as it's not bookmatched. I've got two guitars with burl veneers - a Schecter and a Cort and I love the patterns, imperfections and almost fractal-like geometry. One thing I particularly like about my Cort seven-string is that is has a very thing satin finish that means you can feel all imperfections in the burl.

on a stage?
hanging in your house?
Generally on a stage, I'm more interested in the atmosphere, at home I'm interested in weight, feel and sound and on a browser - well even some of my shittiest paint-jobs look great on Web browser... dripcaster being a great example.
Sunburst can live in a house quite easily, and have a history in musical instruments for centuries
It has also been refretted with Jescar 58118s and is getting an Earvana (at the urging of the folk of this parish) so I’m looking forward to getting it back.
The finish is going to be the same as on the blue Dolmen SS-22 at the bottom of this page https://www.dolmencustom.com/gallery.html The guy mixes the colour himself so it doesn’t correspond to any off the shelf paint.
The burst isn’t getting stripped but rather sanded back and sprayed over, so it has some relicing potential down the line.
