Jay's black curly cherry Song3's
« on: 10 Nov 2016, 08:29 pm »
Jay paid us a visit from CA.  A long way to travel to hear speakers, I thought.  But, as I recall, he came to MI to do a little mushroom hunting.  While here, he decided he wanted a pair of Song3's.  But he had a hard time figuring out what the finish should be.  He finally chose curly cherry with a light black dye and burst edges.

Here are the results...



And a close-up...



Happy listening, Jay!

Awesome choices, really goes with the drivers. The burst works surprisingly well with wood choice. Nice.

beautiful! Is the finished front baffle standard on the Song3 or upgrade?

Standard as shown with burst edges.  If not a burst edge, there would be an upgrade for hardwood trim on the cabinet edges.

Nice finish.  Are my eyes playing tricks on me - it looks like the burst finish runs along the bottom front of one speaker (just above the plinth), but not the other?  Perhaps it's just the way the pic was cropped.

I think that's the speaker and color I ordered also. Nice to see them.

The 3rd sealer coat is finished. They were ordered Aug. 17 so it shouldn't be too long now.

Anyone else see the thread name and think of Jay (Black) and The Americans? Probably not.  :)

Bubba, make sure to give us your first impression of the  Song 3 when you receive them. Pics will be nice too  :D

I noticed the same thing.  Now it looks like it's been fixed.

Real nice.  Any Song3s making their way towards the Atlanta area?  Hoping to hear them again.
