Which would you choose? and why?
EXHIBIT A (Tobacco SB)or
EXHIBIT B (59 Burst)I've got a couple days to think about this before money gets in the bank.
EDIT: meant to post a poll...grrrrrrrrr
Of course I'm assuming tone and playability is there...I plan on calling them up and asking questions about that stuff before I choose.
I would pick the 2nd. I just like that finish more. It seems a bit more bright and 'happy' and not so dark in the colours.
59 Burst, definitely, although that is one of the nicer tobaccos I've seen.

Well, at least Rob will be happy. You missed out on a good excuse to bust his chops, though.
I like the 59 burst a little better myself. I don't know why. Maybe because it looks more like my Jackson. Either one is beautiful, though. I've never seen the tobacco burst in person, so that might be the kicker. As far as tone and playability, you won't be disappointed. They're one of the few guitars I'd consider buying sight unseen.

of those two, i'd say the bottom '59 burst due to the flame pattern in the top.
as for me, i'll take the vintage orange one at the bottom of the list on the willcutt site...DROOOOOOOOOL
-Mike
Close-ups:Exhibit A all the way.
oh now that i can see the flame in that top i would go based on weight i think...they are both amazing so whichever is lighter i would lean to since they are both sexy!!
-Mike
9lbs 9 oz for the TSB
8lbs 10oz for the 59 Burst
Weight doesn't bother me...I'm used to Les Pauls...plus I like the stability so it's not flying around when I play...
Sorry Ben, this is as radical as I get ...those quot;starsquot; and Dimebags and Warriors just are not my thing.
And to add some GAS to another forum member's fire (no voting necc)
Being a Fender man, I gotta go with Exhibit A on this one. I wouldn't turn down either one though. They're both gonna rock the Casbah I'm sure.
59 burst! looks more natural to me. A is also sexy.

SIG CHECK...I've taken it on as my mission here at The Duncan Forums
lol no need with me my GAS NEVER EVER EVER goes away, 5 guitars in 2 months and i still have GAS lol.

i really like the TB. Those are some nice tops which ever you decide on.
I like the contrast and the way the binding works w/ the finish in A, absolutely killer.
Exhibit A, man. That is the sheeut!!! That TSB just has a vibe to it. Killer.
And will someone please give Mike some Tums or Pepto for his GAS? It's starting to smell around here...
