I voted Vintage Sunburst.  Although when I first got my guitar it seemed too yellow to me, especially during the day.  As time has passed it seemed like it was getting darker.  I noticed the other day while changing strings and cleaning my H150, the color under the bridge and tailpiece is definitely lighter than the rest of the top.  I guess the topcoat became more amber with light exposure.  Really looks more vintage now!

Is VSB the one that is supposed to look like the '59 burst LPs?

 

Supposed (by some, I guess) to, but there's a lot of latitude on that, IMHO.  The real '59's come in an awful lot of flavors, given the different ways they fade.  I've thought about custom ordering a Heritage '59 reproduction.  Were I to, it'd be a variation on the VSB theme, or the exact same finish Brent's last Stat had.  The flame and color of that piece were particularly fine, and very much in the spirit of several of the '59's I've seen in the flesh.

Well here a pic of "Greeny" with VSB (whic looks more like lemonburst to me). The pic looks like there is more red & orange than there really is.

Wish I could vote more than once. 

 

I really really like red (Gibson cherry) and blue translucents, but the nicest Heritages I have seen are the OSBs.

 

I was just getting ready to say I can't believe OSB is behind Blue Translucent! What's wrong with you guys, anyway?  :police: ... Oh wait ... don't answer that! I know enough of you personally to figure that out on my own. ..........  :P
