White Sparkle
Sunburst High Gloss
Natural Maple

Here's my sunburst 3005's

Im buying myself a 3007 in white sparkle purely because its going to stand out on a stage. The sunburst will also do this for you.

I have had a few people criticise the White Sparkle for not being a true sparkle, but rather a series of reflective silver dots over a white coat, but its one of my favourites personally, particularly when a white badd drum reso is used.

Natural Maple is a pretty big seller too, and a good choice if you want a kit that isnt going to 'date' in the colour dept.

thanks guys i think im taking white sparkle out of the picture, just not my style. If i cant find an actual picture of natural maple i will go with the sunburst

Well this is a 1st, asking what color I should get. The white sparkle is the best but of course thats just me, you may think differently.. Oh and I see you do...LOL

I find it hard to believe there are some people who actually say things like, " that is not a true sparkle it's just a bunch of silver dots on white paint" What is your response?

I know what mine would be....Dork comes to mind...lol

By the way mine is white sparkle.. : )

Its not so much a case of "not being a sparkle', but it is indeed different to the metallic leaf look of most sparkles.

i had the white sparkle as well and that was my favorite colors of the force series. It's a nice color, not traditional sparkle how a wrap is a sparkle, however it is unique and cool in its own way. Plus its a lacquer, which a lot of people really like.

im not a natural finish sort of cat, so I am going to vote for the already dismissed white sparkle :)
