Heritage Cherry Burst with Tobacco Burst as a very close second choice.

There is a very rare Gibson finish that I like, and the only way to identify it is to look real close at the headstock, and if it says "Fender", that's the one.

But other than that I like the Cherry Red too.

Les Paul Custom, I like Black or White.
LP Standard, I like the bursts.
LP Deluxe, gotta be a Goldtop.
335 - Cherry
But...I'd take any of them in Pelham Blue.

I have always liked the heritage cherry sunburst on a Les Paul type of guitar. I don't know why, it just looks right!

These generic photos are misleading ...this is supposedly heritage Cherry sunburst but it looks more like a light burst to me.

2012 brings AAA tops to the standards

For that kind of money AAA tops should pretty much be a given.

My 2006 standard is a AAA top and your right about these pics They look nothing like my HC Burst I think the pickguard looks awful on a LP so I never put mine on

Tobacco burst is my favorite, with gold top a very close second. I bought heritage cherry sunburst only because of resale value, and the fact that I would have had to order a tob burst. Stupid really, cause I never plan on selling it.
