Cool photo. You wouldn't happen to have a BOW in your right hand, would you?The colour has to be removed and refinished too. I have asked for more red and less sunburst. Kind of like this:

Speaking of AC6s, I don't know if you guys have seen this video yet, but it is worthy of a link from fbass.com I think, in terms of demonstrating an AC6.
BTW, don't ask me why the info area says "fender funk slap." There is plenty of funk to be sure, but I didn't see any fenders or slap.

Hi there,
Could you tell me you Fbass experts what finish is on this pic please? I don't know if this is an Auburn or Cherry burst finish...

Hi there,
Could you tell me you Fbass experts what finish is on this pic please?
I believe the technical term for that finish is "frackin' awesome!"
Looks cherry to me.Hi there,

Cherry are you sure? I'm wondering if this is an Auburn since I've seen the pics below.
Nope, I'm absolutely not sure.
I'm just going by the yellow/red fade, which I've typically seen described as a cherry burst, but what really matters is George's finish definitions for his basses.
Looks Cherry to me as well. But I think the inherent shade of the wood causes variations. I love Tom's description of that color! Too funny> Frackin awesome it is!

According to fbass.com:
Auburn burst: Amber to darker brownish red, Mahogany grain
Cherry burst: Amber to red, Natural grain
Seems to be Auburn burst...

Yep, that is the correct technical term!

My gosh, is THAT a good looking bass.
xav_paris posted this in the old (part 3, not yet closed) thread, so I thought I'd quote it here so we can keep all the discussion in one place.
I'm not currently using it, but it does look like something I would try now that I know about it.
Crap! I forgot to edit that post first!!!Cough, cough.
Great call, Vic... you REALLY nailed that one!Nope, I'm absolutely not sure.
