Case in point, my '59. Under the pickguard, R/T ring and pickup rings, the cherry color is a very deep, blood red color...but the guitar has faded to a green burst. What else would explain the fade to a green burst versus more of a teaburst or honeyburst? Here's my '59...notice how dark the color is right where the screw hole is...and please note that in person the color of the guitar is quite a bit more green than the photo shows:
Thoughts?

Doesn't look green to me.
I've seen a darkburst that faded to a brownish edge color.
