Clownburst - Another Stahlpakt co-operation

I was browsing the great website Feitsh Guitars. You can find the most strange Italian guitars and basses. All those weird sixties instruments.
And it seems the Clownburst was no invention of Herr Uwe, but from his Italian friends. It seems the Stahlpakt is still alive:

The "clownburst" term came from Steve Barr.
That is one ugly paint job.

Wow! Something even uglier than Antigua!
Now a nice, 60's Teisco green sunburst... THAT'S a beautiful thing.

No, Steve was using the term years before that to describe the Gibson yellow to orange/red figured tops.
