Saw this on my email feed and thought CG = Conch Girl. Slightly disappointed... but not in that finish BG, looks amazing.
Cheers,

No Adam - only Tele's deserve Conch Girl - I don't think DB would allow someone with a bass kit to buy it...

First burst attempt on the front. Shot in the early morning sun, for added impact.
