Now I'm confused. "Clownburst" is Gibson's Heritage Cherry Sunburst. AFAIK the only EB-0L Uwe has is the one I found for him with the gunshot that he had refinished in orange and blueburst. It's loud but it's not "clown" loud.  ;D

That's it, only on some models in some eras the yellows and reds are brighter and the combination looks more garish than that.

It hath arrived!!! Beautiful, flawless piece of work. Never had a Bird with as low a buzz-free action - it's certainly handy to have a master luthier around devoting himself to the perfect fret job!

Pics and a report (need to restring her with fresh strings) soon.
