I am planning to buy a California Nighthawk Plus 4 string in the near future. I already own a California II 5 banger, and it is the most comfortable instrument I have ever played!

There are three finishes available, and I like them all! I've pretty much made up my mind on this, but I am still curious what the TB hivemind thinks! :) I play in a funk band, if that helps.

Still undecided.

Inca Silver is available right now, for a good price.
Dark Grey available in June, slightly more expensive.
Copper available in July, same price as Dark Grey.

Unless I spend more on Haeussel pickups upgrade. Then all three would be available today. But I think I want the Sandberg Black Labels. :)
