Really proud to own 97MJ10851 but does anyone else know of a maple top with red burst around edges?

Beautiful top!  I love the figuring, and the color enhances it beautifully!  I suppose it could be a variation of the Cherry Burst (http://www3.alembic.com/img/ws_cherrysunburstL.jpg).

That is nice. I love how it is complemented by the back. I bet it sounds killer too!
 
Historically I don't think Alembic focuses on bursts, but when they do they are great, like yours! Many Alembics are one of a kind, whether they are Series II or a Signature bass or a Spoiler or Distillate!

I dunno if it's one-off or not, but I like it! I've not seen one exactly like it on these pages yet. Congrats!
 
Always been a sucker for sunburst finishes... last year I ordered a guitar from the C.F.Martin & Co. Custom Shop, and had them finish it in a vintage Ambertone sunburst.

Yes I agree that is a beautiful cherry burst over that quilted top!
