  • Tobacco Sunburst

    I know it's discontinued. Supposing I go Custom Shop: All I want is a WR1 (no hardware or woodworking changes at all) in Tobacco Sunburst. What percentage of the cost of a brand new WR1 should I expect to pay on top?
    Fuck ebay, fuck paypal

    That's what I was going to do with a KV2... then decided to get abalone inlays and logo. I'm still waiting.

        Tobacco sunburst always looks great. I'd love to see it on a warrior. Maybe it'll be a production finish option soon. That and maybe more of the trans colors would be cool.
        I'm not afraid to bleed, but I won't do it for you.

          If you do that I will be insanely jealous, I love tobacco sunburst. :P

          I'm not sure how much more it would cost because I don't really know too much about the custom shop pricing, but if I remember correctly, didn't they change the custom shop pricing policy in the last year or two so that if all you wanted was minor changes to standard models, the only additional cost would be for the thing you wanted changed. Rather than how they did it previously, where it would be really expensive just because it was a custom, regardless of the fact that it's just a standard model with a different finish.

          I may be completely wrong of course!
          I like maple fretboards. :P

              I'm guessing it wasn't a popular finish at the time, or it was Jackson's intention to entice people to order more Custom Shop pieces. Possibly both.

                Please dont have a Warrior done in Tobacco Sunburst. It would be like dressing Satan up in a 3 piece tweed suit.

                  Both classy and evil at the same time. Sounds awesome.

                  Tobacco sunbursts rule. If I'm ever going to get a custom shop rhoads it's going to be one.

                        Well, its your choice but it screams fail to me. You have all these vicious curves and points and it needs something apocalyptic to finish it all off in my opinion. Flames, the skin of some exotic animal, Ninja robots fighting Godzilla, zombie strippers eating each others pussies, Cthulhu... etc.
                        Come on man, its a Warrior! Tobacco Sunburst is more Librarian than Barbarian.

                        Yes, I know mine is only Gun Metal Grey but thats just a temporary situation. As soon as I get round to it, its having a mondo makeover.
