Hey Tom,

Thanks so much for the info! Is it going to have an oversized neck like the last one?

If you call Willie's and put down a deposit, I bet you could have it spec'd however you want. Just a suggestion. :)

[King Cobra]

I called him and he was really cool........the way they have it spec'd it almost exactly the way I'd order it.......P 90's, Trans yellow Finish and a Oversized neck. (I might just go for it natural like the one I saw at Charlies) Nothing as beautiful as deseased wood!! :D

Hello Mister King,

The Korina Cobra Special for Willies is Natural just like the one at Charleys. Technically it is called Tint, just a slight enhancement of the Natural look. It is not Trans Yellow. That was originally discussed but Tint was the finish decided upon.

Have fun.

Are you going to get it? I spoke with Roy and as I understand it, that Korina is the last piece. Makes it kind of special that no other dealer could even order one—right now anyway.

Happy Playing,
Maybe

[tom]

not to confuse the issue, but the charley's one is really natural. tint will be just a bit more yellowamber, that's a new color name i just invented.

Tom,

I am going to check with Roy right now and see if you are just making this stuff up or you are really right about it.

Maybe

[Roy (maybe)]

Tom,

Oops, okay then, I checked with Roy and you are right about that…sorry to have questioned you and Roy. Tint is just an enhanced Natural look then?

Maybe

[tom]

yes, tint is a warmer, vintagier, yelloweramberer natural tone.

Yelloweramberer. That's my new favorite word. I'm going to try to use it in a sentence sometime today.

[tom]

brian that's too easy. you need to come up with a color that has more e's and r's.
