Is that a standard finish?  Looks like a toffee finish or something.  very nice looking.

it's purty...the back side of that bass is gorgeous.
sorry for stating the obvious - kinda new to Epi & Gibson's stuff.

It is a burst, not really like a vintage Gibson or Epi burst but it works.

That is the standard Vintage Sunburst which is available on the Epiphone Pro series birds. You'll see variations (lighter and darker) in online pics, but that's really just due to lighting- it's all the same finish.

I'd like Fireglo better if it was like this.
