I think that's called Ceruse finish.. F Basses was the first company I remember seeing doing this.

Yeah it was like that last one!! Only fewer lines, maybe just a piece of wood with a larger grain or weird lighting. I've seen a few others like this, I think it's a pretty cool finish

They did/do?
Not the right TON green but if you sat through any TON interviews the green was never the right green according to Steele...

Ok that one DOOMS! for sure
btw i noticed how PRS has their neck pocket below the neck pickup rout like the old washburn/daion. im a fan of that! Had a shitty daion bass for a while and the heel was excellent cause of that. it had a plethora of issues though

Thanks for the feedback. Highly appreciated. Pretty sums my feelings up: Not many play that, how do they even sound, "used to play one", sounds better with other guitars etc.
I think it is not worth dropping 2k+ FOR ME. So I'm done with this...

There’s usually one decent doom riff on every Today is the Day album.
I actually dig the shape and even the stupid bird inlays. I can’t fuck with all that flame though.
Messed around with one unplugged and it was nice in the hand. They’re supposed to be a less spongy Les Paul, eh.

Yeah TITD is basically all PRS, and the guitars sound great.

Couldn't find any videos of her with one in Helium, but here's a show w/ her when she was in Autoclave:
