Thanks to all, I'm really excited. Flats were included in the deal and will be on before the night is through.

Are you serious? Okay, send me your address. And thanks.

Oh, phew. I should keep it then?

But your burst has more amber in the center than mine, and my pickguard seems to have more brown than red. For what it's worth, yours looks better than mine; although I am happy with the sound of mine. Here's mine:
