It's the blue one and it has what appears to be a painted back.
When played WITHOUT an amp the guitar sounds brighter and maybe tinnier than LPs that aren't painted. And of course with an amp this shows through too. Does this make sense?
I'm not sure I care that much for it. I've had a number of LPs and the only sharp, bright one I've owned was a Custom Classic goldtop which had not only Goldtop paint, but also baked maple fingerboard. The fingerboard certainly made it brighter, even Gibson said I think. But the paint?
Thanks for your input.
