My new Cobra S

[BFC]

Here's a photo of my new Firemist Gold Cobra S. This is a very though color to capture with my camera for some reason.

The guitar has a powerful lower mid punch even for a Cobra. I also paid a little extra for the 1 5/8" nut width, very comfy for me. The neck is very, very close to my Classic with the Pete Anderson neck.

I have two keepers now! I'm sold on the M pickups.

:D

Thanks guys! AG, I can try to get a photo in some different lighting if you need help picking a color for your new one.

Looks really nice Brian. Though the Gold looks more like LP Goldtop to me, than Firemist Gold.

Is the neck rosewood, or is it painted?

[tom]

gold tops are a green gold, this is definitly a redder gold. gold tops are also a finer metallic.

Beautiful guitar. Love the color.

I was wondering the same thing. It looks painted though.

[BFC]

The neck is painted to match the back of the body but satin. The lighting wasn't ideal for capturing the gold finish. It is definetly Firemist Gold and nothing like a gold top Gibson. I'll have to try again in some different lighting.

Congratulations Brian,

I hope my next one will be M pickups, but meanwhile I'm very happy with your ex-TA classic.

All the raving about the M's really wore me down...yesterday I placed my order for a new HDTC with a M1/M1/M2 pickup combination. Should see it in February.
