Specifically the '62 reissue; color question.

They have several listed as 'natural'. Is this suppose to mimic an old faded cherry finish, or is it their own take on a later color on an earlier guitar (walnut finish)? Anyone know?

A picture of an actual vintage '62 (with wiggle stick) vs. the close up of the Wildwood spec for reference.

I know your probably looking for facts and not opinions - but . . . I think it’s meant to be a stripped finish SG. Best way to know for sure would be to ask the crew @ WW.

Thanks for the response.

That probably makes sense to ask them...
