Whoops - sorry for the noob mistake!

Anybody got their hands on one?  I just chatted with WildWood to confirm they're the thick 58/59 neck profile (which I like) - and they are!

How are these different then the Bonabursts? The discription says nothing about Tigerstripe?

Re: FIGURED TOP Bonabursts now on the street!

Some of the first run, 1-25, actually had some flame, they weren't all plain top.  I don't think these are the possible forthcoming tigerstripe that Joe referred to.

Re: FIGURED TOP Bonabursts now on the street!

So how many Bonabursts are there going to be when all is said and done?

Re: FIGURED TOP Bonabursts now on the street!

I think these are still part of the 1st run plain/semi flame top Bnaburts run of les pauls....just these have more flame to them...

if they are up that high in the numbers I guess they will make 150-200 total production ???  ((But I could be wrong))

Re: FIGURED TOP Bonabursts now on the street!

I think when inquiries were made about total number, they were considered limited, but I don't think any exact numbers were given.  It may be just based on demand.  I believe when the first 25 came out some of us here were under the impression that that would be it.  Then more were released.  So who knows.

They certainly do seem to be selling quickly.
