It's hard to see because it is black with the front top portion kind of a black gray marble with pearl inlay.

Beautiful guitar, Howard ...

Hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of adjusting brightness and contrast on one of the photos for a little better view at this beautiful guitar ... :)

I bet it plays and sounds as good as it looks. :)

Howard,
I have the same color combo on my U-12, Zum.
I bought it new, from Bruce, in 2005. I remember him saying, that, he never thought that color combo would sell, so, I thought I had a special steel, indeed. But, I've seen several other Zums wearing the same colors. I guess the scheme caught on.
Good luck with your Zum, it's a beauty and great choice on the color.
