I am between Green lemon fade and Slow iced tea burst. But I would prefer gloss finish instead VOS. Does the gloss finish exist on the '59 60th?

I'm a sucker for a nice cherry sunburst, so I like the Factory Bursts the most.

I do like Kindred Bursts in VOS, but I did get one in gloss a couple weeks ago that went back due to some workmanship issues AND the fact that the finish wasn't quite what I was expecting. It looked GREAT in pictures; hard to get a bad looking picture of it. In person, though, it was a very bright, yellowish shiny gold. I wasn't expecting that. VOS Kindreds seem to be a bit more subdued. I did warm up to the gloss Kindred, but it absolutely needed a thicker dark ring around it to look right (which it didn't have).

They always look better in photos. They seem to be warmer and darker. My first RO was a nice orange in the photos. When I got it it wasn't orange at all, but yellowish brown. This picture was the first time I saw this guitar, on Private Reserves Facebook post. I knew I had to have it. It now has a Bigsby on it. It has more sustain now, the sustain has really cool overtones
