With the recent price increase on Fender i might as well cough up 800 more for a Gibson Les Paul but i am having a hard time choosing a finish on one.

You see my local Gibson Dealing Guitar Shop has every finish but Heritage cherry but they do not charge taxes the Guitar Center a couple of blocks away has the Heritage cherry but they charge 200 extra for tax.

I am leaning towards the Honey burst because it is kind of original and everyone has a cherry sunburst but i also want cherry sunburst because everyone has one.

I think the herritage cherry is awesome. but pick what feels good to you. if you buy from a store put them on and stand in front of a mirrow. just to see how it looks to you.good luck you cant go wrong eather way.

I always preferred Heritage Cherry, so very beautiful. Honey Burst I could give or take.

Personally I would go with black or a gold top....but since it's you, of those choices, I like the honey one better.
