I agree with Scott. In my experience Amber makes everything a lot darker and a lot browner. I usually start with a really light color if I'm going to go Amber. Amber over yellow matches a Honey Brooks, for example. Amber over pink came out, um, brownish pink? That was kind of gross. Amber over white can be cool. Amber over Maroon came out really dark brown for me.
