Goldtops never used to do anything for me. I'd actually ignore them and walk right on by... until I picked up Goldie, a Stripper 58. Now I'm a huge fan and realized I have been missing out all these years.I ended up gravitating towards goldtops.... wasn't always my favorite, but picking out a single color/finish option from the PRS rainbow might be too hard for me. So, I always end up just pulling the trigger on goldtops... YMMV
I'll go hot pink.
^^^^^^^Blue guitars sound better.

too bad it doesn't have starlas. just sayin'
Same. I wouldn't say I like flashy colour options. I'm all about classic combinations, and I would love to see more of them on PRS.Black Gold, McCarty Burst, etc. I have no idea why.
There have been a few of us say in here that we really like the PRS Dark Cherry Burst finishes. We just don't consider them clown bursts. To me the clown burst is more of a Gibson thing where there is a drastic change from yellow to red. I consider my burst guitars to be more grounded in the red color in them. My Dark Cherry CU22 is more of a gold color in the center and not yellow.i find it interesting that so far no respondents have favored yellows and clownbursts. I love guitars that look like they are on fire, burning from the inside out, but normally they either have too much yellow and then a drastic change to red (like Ronald mcdonald), or there is too much orange with not enough yellow in the center.
i had a singlecut, gorgeous quilt, in dark cherry burst. imho, not enough yellow transitioning to gold>orange>red, but i agree it was no clownburst. however, my dgt is a total clownburst that goes from heavy yellow to red without any gold or orangeThere have been a few of us say in here that we really like the PRS Dark Cherry Burst finishes.

I have one in Livingston Lemon Drop and another in Faded McCarty Burst. Those guitars are much more yellow.
I have seen a few DGTs that are the old Cherry Burst and they all look like a clown burst. The Dark Cherry Burst fixed all of the problems I had with the standard Cherry Burst finish.i had a singlecut, gorgeous quilt, in dark cherry burst. imho, not enough yellow transitioning to gold>orange>red, but i agree it was no clownburst. however, my dgt is a total clownburst that goes from heavy yellow to red without any gold or orange
