Is this a 2016 Traditional?

I'm interested in a Traditional I saw advertised online. But curious if this is a 2016 model. Gibson website lists 2016s coming with Grover tuners not Gibson Deluxe.
Does this look like an Iced Tea or Honey Burst? The lack of a gradient at the bottom makes me wonder.

Yep, looks like one. And it's Honey Burst. Iced Teas were rimbursts in 2016 and had red backs (I have a 2016 Trad in HB and used to have one in IT as well--bought both new, so know them well).

Don't care what it's called: love that top. Beautiful coloring. I have a 2013 and fwiw the case is black with white interior, perhaps another 2016 owner will chime in about their case.

That looks right. The Traditional Pro came with grovers with with chrome keystone tips.

Looks good! Did you get it?
Unfortunately it sold before I could get it. Pity because that looked like exactly what I wanted. My bad for thinking too much about it. And strangely my second and third choices also all sold in the last few days after spending weeks for sale.

Thanks for the input everybody.
