Custom Shop SG VOS Cherry finish fades?

gio · Aug 25, 2018

Hey all,

Looking at getting myself a Custom Shop SG in heritage cherry. Anyone know how quickly the cherry finish fades? Or have any photos of it?

Thanks!

The VOS models are not too red, at least most I've seen. I have a 2006 and its still reddish with the mahogany grain visible and looks very close to the real 63-64 (as they are now) SG's, but not like the standard series reissues which are very red, almost painted. There's a run out now at Wildwood that are really faded if you like that look https://wildwoodguitars.com/product/082482/wildwood-spec-sg-standard-vos/?cat_id=254
