Show me your pics of black-burst finish guitars please!

-Nolly- · 12-24-2009, 01:38 AM

Hi,

I'm gathering my thoughts to spec out a custom, and it's almost definitely going to have a black-burst finish along the lines of these:

It'd be good to see a load of different guitars with similar finishes so I can really get specific about the look I'd like, so I'd be grateful for any input

Metaljim · 12-24-2009, 01:53 AM

Here's my Mayones, it's more grey than black though.

PirateMetalTroy · 12-24-2009, 01:58 AM

So you're going with a quilt top then?

HAUCH · 12-24-2009, 02:09 AM

My bud's guitar.

Needs to be single stained to look like that ^

An old guitar of mine.

polydeathsphere · 12-24-2009, 02:25 AM

Always loved Carvins finishes

Charles · 12-24-2009, 02:32 AM

Hey, sorry for thread crashing but I just want to know what the guitar in the first picture is. It's pretty gnarly looking.

As for the black bursts, the only one I can think of that's cool looking is the EBMM JP, but you already posted it.

-Nolly- · 12-24-2009, 07:08 AM

Thanks for the pics guys, this is really helping me formulate my opinion on what I want

Yeah, quite possibly, though a nice flame would be cool too, we'll see what happens when it comes to ordering.

It's a Siggi Braun: ♪ Siggi Braun - Fine Young Guitars ♫
They build pretty incredible guitars, pricey though.

Yeah, that's very close to what I'm planning

liamh · 12-24-2009, 10:43 AM

The Suhr trans charcoal burst

The natural binding really is a nice touch

It's a Sherman that belongs to the old admin of this site. It won GOTM, and you can see the thread here: http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/gui...ustom-7-a.html

HumanFuseBen · 12-24-2009, 01:42 PM

This guy: Dæmoness Guitars - Lutherie Infernus.
Epicly talented luthier and artist, check out the inlays

Also, this is ridiculous, the light parts are where he has scraped the stain off:

He also does handpainted woodcut effect stuff:

Also, the inlays are incredible:

That man has some mental skills.

caughtinamosh · 12-24-2009, 02:55 PM

Damn, my reading needs to be more thorough.

I thought that you meant "trans with black bursts," for some reason.

JesseTheMachine · 12-24-2009, 07:47 PM

Whoa, those Daemoness Guitars are some serious business! I've always wanted a guitar that I could see the face of Jesus in the finish haha!
