In 1975 I bought My first L 6 S. It was a natural finish with a black head stock. At the same time my friend bought a Midnight Special. It was basically an L 6 S with out the vari tone switch and it was finished in a deep purple metal flake. Bill lawrence did design the pick ups, but on a basic L 6 S the switching is basically a standard Gibson Varitone set up. The rarest color on these seems to be the Silver burst that they used after 1980. Also for a short time Santana used a L6S until he had a falling out with Gibson and switched to the Yamaha. These guitars are excellent players instruments, but for some reason the collectors don't give them a high resale value. They do some great though. Hope all this helps any one.
