Thats actually Burnt Apple. Black cherryburst is a trans color I believe.

Ah, my bad. Silly me to assume the seller knows what he has

i'm pretty sure that if it has a black headstock its limited and they're not running them with the limited edition headstock/neckplate any more

I'd put Radiance Red in both sections, since it started out as a limited color and is now a standard color.

Dude, you really should add Radiance Red to the LE section, that's where it started out.

Also, here a good picture of Gremlin Green:

Also you forgot about Luke Blue?? TThat would be a Solid Finish.

This is a great resource, and thanks for taking the time and effort to put this collection together and for maintaining it.

That said I do have a small suggestion. For most colours, you have just the one pickguard variation shown. I wonder if there would be value in adding additional photos of different pickguard combos so that people can see how a particular finish color looks with different pickguards. For example, for black you only have a pearloid pickguard pictured, when you could also include pics of tort or black pickguarded black instruments as well. We do get a lot of questions from people asking how their bass might look with a different pickguard, so perhaps doing so would be useful?

For starters, you could grab my Rolls Burgundy/Tort bongo pic and my Black/Tort and Black/Black stingray pics and add them to the Rolls and Black pages respectively.

Just a thought
