Gorgeous. I'm really starting to love Macassar the more I see of it.

A light tiger finish on flame maple has ot be one of my favourites. My first guitar had it (Joe Perry Les Paul) and I regularly search for showcase bodies with that finish in case one ever pops up that really fits the bill. Sadly most of the ones that come up in the showcase are way too strong on the brown for my liking, but that one there is gorgeous. Very nicely done.

I've noticed the showcase pics of brown, tiger eye, and amber dyed tops appear stronger than in real life.

And yes, very tasty choices indeed.
