I've decided my next guitar is going to be a LP Traditional. The only problem is, im having some trouble finding the color i want. From all the manufacturer pics i've seen online the ice tea burst is what im looking for, but everytime i see an ice tea burst in real life it seems bland to me. The only ones they had at the store were the ebony models so i couldn't see any in person. I wanna see some of your sunburst les pauls to maybe help me decide. I'm mainly interested in the Ice Tea burst, Light burst, and the Heitage Cherry sunburst.

I've been playing the one in my avatar for over twenty years......got it refretted and a bone nut installed last year. I will take it to the grave!

This one is an 05 R8 in Iced Tea Burst but the truth is these pics don't really do the colour much justice (it looks 10 times better in person) plus my camara skills are a joke however it might help you some.

It is but a dirty Epiphone LP Standard, but she's my #1. Heritage Cherry is very difficult to capture accurately! The red oversaturates and looks pink, and the "burst" looks like an abrupt line. It actually has a nice, gentle fade that looks awesome.

Too be honest, if I had my way, I'd own a Heritage Chery, Lemon Drop, and Iced Tea Burst Les Paul, all with different Duncans. :)

Here's a few pics of my 'burst LPs:

1998 Gibson LP Standard in (Obviously) Cherry Sunburst. It's actually alot brighter in real life

I have a black Standard. Pics are in my gear link, but I have a Guild Bluesbird that has been bursted by Cris Mirabella and the color is incredible, also pics in my gear (I think). The Guild has a beautiful quilt top. Great player and great looking guitar. The Les Paul I have is a great guitar, but nothing fancy, just a straight ahead black standard.

Here is a poor picture of my Desert Burst - just beware they have black backs.

This is my G0. I think they call it honeyburst but it might be a lightburst...I don't recall.

I have a guild bluesbird but I am sure gibson makes something similar to this. I love the flamed maple top!!!!

Here's my old Classic in 'Heritage' burst...looks more like a honey burst and is much more brown in real life. Sold it for a gold top which IMO is mucho kooler.:cool2:
