Unique Finishes on Older Models

I wonder sometimes why my H140 doesn't say "Clown Burst" on the control cover.....  ?

My H-535 says Faded Cherry, which is apparently different from Transparent Cherry.   Some of the newer 535s seemed to me more opaque than transparent.

 
I'm pretty sure I took this guitar to a PSP one year. Not sure.

I loved everything about this guitar, including the black binding, just not the neck carve. Super thin neck carve I couldn't deal with.

I ordered that one from GC shortly after you traded it in.  Mostly still the same although I did swap the Schallers for Motor City Pickups Angeldusts.  It was great before but even better now.  Also had my luthier do a proper setup and replace the nut with an unbleached bone nut.  The stock one got too deep on the D string and needed to go. 
 

Neck carve never bothered me. It wasn’t as thin as some guitars I’ve owned.  Could stand to be a little thicker but definitely playable.
