Its gonna be time to move some stuff so I can pick up one of them, or hit the lotto and pick up a few LOL

Dude, halfway through scrolling through the pics I had to look back at the top of the thread and make sure you said “Wood Library”.... I got disoriented and thought I was lookin’ at Private Stocks!

Edit: It’s a shame these aren’t all Santana’s.

It's times like this that I'm actually GLAD to be a lefty...

Dang, blue fade in BOTH runs! Killing me Brian! Actually it’s my lack of funds that is killing me!

This is probably a dangerous question on my part, but anyone have any images of what "Trampas Green Fade" looks like?

Makes no sense. We almost never see "10 tops" that look like these on core models anymore.

To be fair, I did look through like 300 tops to find these.

Admit it, there is a super secret vault just for Brian that only opens during certain phases of the moon with secret chants and planetary alignments. There may or may not be other brand guitar sacrifices involved

I haven’t seen 10 in 300 recent core 10s look like these billets.



Good job, Brian.

So to answer my own question, I had some positive google-fu for once and found a link to this very forum with some nice photos:

Hmm. Tempting. But might go for a blue fade instead, if I was to snag one of these. The single piece tops are amazing looking, but I don't know if I like a Floyd Rose...
