The difference between a 2-color and 3-color sunburst guitar finish
Sunburst is a guitar color finish option that's been available for a very long time; it's always been popular because it has a woody/furniture look to it.
It's called a sunburst because the middle of the body is supposed to be gold (as in "sun like") in color where the burst starts, then towards the ends of the body the color fades to a much darker color or all the way to black, which is where the burst ends.
There are many different kinds of bursts out there, but the two most popular are 2-color sunburst, commonly called "Two Tone Sunburst" or 2TSB for short, and 3-color sunburst, commonly called "Three Tone Sunburst" or 3TSB for short.
Most of what guitar players know about guitar strings are "facts" that are either partially true or not true at all.
Here are a few of them.
"Jerry's Breakdown" is the first song on the 1972 album Me and Chet. And yes, that album has one of the worst album covers ever, because when you think of Chet Atkins, you don't exactly envision him rowing a boat. Chet and Jerry, who played together often, would try to do "funny" things like that, but it just didn't work. But at least the music was good.
The Usual Suspects is a movie from 1995 that I've been wanting to see for a long time because it had such rave reviews and I've never heard anyone say a bad thing about it. I finally got to watch it for myself and decide if it was good or not.
Here's my theory when it comes to certain things still for sale that are exactly like they used to be:
Certain products can stay stored in a warehouse for a long time and not age. If the product is still usable later in its original form, and we're talking years later mind you, it will still be sold as new.
