It’s quite pink.

If you want the orangey/tomato soup look, ask for a yellowed clear coat

Yes, I spoke with several finishers with high recommendations, since it is a vintage restoration and my reservation about the color I wanted to be sure. Joe seems highly regarded for his vintage color matches. Plus I just picked up a black AVRI Jazzmaster to keeps my hands busy in the mean time!
