Off to See the Gibson

The images online of the Seafoam Gibson Les Paul varied dramatically in color. I'm sure the guitars varied some amount, and there was a lot of variance in the photography. Also, heavy-handed digital processing of the images surely had a huge effect on the colors.

A friend and I decided to go to Guitar Center to look around. I wanted to see if I could catch a Seafoam Les Paul in the wild. They had one in stock so I took a few photos. The seafoam was greener than most of the photos I had found online. The back was a darker wood than many images I had found. The colors on the Gibson website was pretty accurate for this model.
