Does anyone know if the RG 520 QS quilted sapele is real or an image? I've been so enamored by the RG series of guitars that I picked up an RG 520 QS, but I'm on the fence on if I should keep it. When I received it, it was poorly setup so I had my guitar tech set it up, but he thought the quilt top might be an image (printed picture). Anyone know if this is a veneer or an image? Here's a picture...

One thing is, I can't get a photo of the top. It needs to be a real sunny day to get it to show up on camera, but the top is a real pretty brown figured top. However it looks like a black guitar from a distance. |

Thanks for the pic Spiro. After that blue was removed, it looks close to my guitar's color. What did the guitar look like after the refin? |
