I’ve got a fingerprint magnet, I mean black Tremonti SE and it’s awesome, kinda sad I saw a white tremonti SE for a steal near me, modded with SD pickups, but I….must….not….buy
About 6 weeks ago I got a new car; they had a great deal on one in stock, loaded and equipped exactly as I wanted it.

The drawback? Black exterior with a cream interior - the double-whammy of Stuff That's Hard To Keep Clean! But honestly, a great looking automobile.

I've never had a black car before, because I know they show every speck of dirt and dust. Yet I couldn't resist. Even though the dealer delivered it perfectly clean, I decided to apply a coat of show car wax from Griot's Garage. Looks the business.

The plus side to black is that when it's cleaned and polished up, it looks wonderful.

As does a black guitar. Fingerprints wipe off pretty easily. And you never get rain, road salt or mud on a guitar (unless you want to ;)).
 
I think the black Robben Ford PRS is one of the sexiest they've ever made.

I used to have a Jetglo Rickenbacker 330. Unique sound and one of the coolest looking guitars ever but I found I couldn't quite adapt to the neck.

I do have an older black Peavey Wolfgang Special.
 
I’d love to post a pic but can’t figure out how to. I have a black 1994 CE22 and a black 2011 Tremonti. IMHO … guitars are meant to be played and heard. Their looks are a distant second. Was never much for those ornate tops. The craftsmanship and artwork is amazing I’ll give you that.
