I'm looking into getting my son a small Yamaha Stage Custom kit for his birthday and have a question about two of the finishes for those who might have either. He prefers black drums but I once saw an older set of Stage Customs in raven black at GC that had a greenish hue to them. Is this typical? I know the wood grain shows through but I'm hoping that this finish resembles piano black more than dark green. Cranberry red is his second choice. Is this similar to a cherry stain finish or is it a much brighter shade of red? If any of you have either of these finishes in the Stage Custom line, I'd like to hear your thoughts.
