What do you want to know?

A few guitars were made in the late '80's and early '90's with Snakeskin tops. The ones I have seen were Ultra models. I seem to remember something about a snakeskin finish Thunderbolt.... That yours, Stephen?

Yeah, I had one that I sold to CED a few months ago. Didn't realize that they came on any other model but the Tbolt. Oh well, live and learn.

Hi,

Some Celebrity from the 80's and 90's were available with a snakeskin design.
It's not the same design as for the thunderbolt.

This one from 1992 was sold last year on Ebay:
CC57 SNAKESKIN

I don't remember the price.
Maybe is it your guitar??

The same design was used on some Applause GTX Solidbodies in the late 80's:
APPLAUSE GTX CATALOG
