FACTORY INSIDER .... "These Guys are on Fire" ....
Portland Percussion also ordered this Legacy Special that in the new Yukon Gold Metallic finish. This one has a
single ply black pickguard that works great with the new finish. These new metallic finishes that we recently
introduced look amazing in bright lights .... you need to see one in sunlight .... these colors rock!

I'm intrigued by this yukon gold color. How subtle is the metallic effect. Is it quite like the Gibson gold top? I wonder as it looks subtler than the maragarita metallic but that could be the pictures.

Here's a Yukon Gold Comanche ordered by the same shop.

Definitely different from gold tops (not only the hue, of course, but also the metallic effect).

NB: sorry, couldn't post the pic as it is a little bit too large for the forum, but the link should be helpful enough for those interested.

I recently updated the READ THIS FIRST - G&L Porn!!!
and provide details with examples on posting photos.

Here's the photo you posted above using the timage= BBCode:

Hope this helps.

I really, really, really like that Comanche :luv:

Thanks for the link.

Hey funny! I just discovered the timage tag by tinkering on a previous post. Really useful. Thanks.
