It looks cool old and greened but fresh silverburst looks bad to me

I honestly never understood the appeal of silverbursts tbh.

Same lol. It might be my least favorite finish honestly

Me too. Its definitely my least favorite Gibson finish.

The Gojira of Gibson finishes.

Same for me. But then again, I love aged finishes and I even like the snot green inlays so what do I know?

I’m the opposite. I don’t like the aged ones at all.
Whenever I pull the trigger mine will be regularly polished because I love that shiny new silverburst finish.

I like how this thread has turned into like 40-50% of posts about how people don’t like that finish.
GOOD ya fucks, keep that demand low so prices return to a reasonable level more in line with other LPC prices.

Wonder how many Adam Jones are in the world. They all have been fucked

I always liked silverburst LPCs, and I also like tobacco burst LPCs, and white LPCs. For me, an LPC has to be old and worn. Not thrashed, but definitely showing some love.

I will probably never own one because they are way above the threshold of what I consider a reasonable amount to pay for a guitar.
