Need to choose a finish for my Cp Thornton Legend. Need LP Ideas/pics quick!!
Time to make a final choice on the color of my new Cp Thornton Legend. Any suggestions, pics or thread links for nice LP style guitars would be appreciated! Top is going to be Eastern and NOT a 5a flame kinda look. Going for a bit more of a vintage vibe. And this one is going to be translucent for sure. Might do Gold or Black on the P90 one that I have on order but a burst of some type on this one. Thanks!!

Nothing prettier than a nice aged Ice Tea burst on a plain top!

thin but real dark on the edges, but lightens up and shows the real nice grain of the wood. almost like the wood was cooked to be darker.
