You know, I've never understood the point of people typing Fe*der of Gi*son. You can say Fender and Gibson.

One person might like one gold better then the other person might like it. Learn to find you're own favourite. There's even a difference between two 2012 Gibson Les Paul standard Gold tops. Its just a matter of seeing those differences.

It depends what gold you're going for. Even with Jewlery- there's a difference in color between 10k, 14k and 24k gold.

The only guitar finish with real gold were a few Fenders that were covered in gold leaf- but gold leaf gives a different look than gold plated metal.

Gibson's "gold tops" were originally bronze powder mixed in with the laquer.

There are some finishes that emulate gold plating.

You might even like colors that are more than gold... like Fender's Frost Gold:
