For now, RIC has suspended
the "
Color of the Year" (COY) program, but for our entertainment, I'm offering this new thread, "
Color of the Week." Each
week, I'll pick one
of the Rick finishes, and I invite one and all to post pictures
of their instruments in that
color right here.
OK,
the labeled ping-pong balls are flying around in
the air popper, and
the first one to come out is -- TURQUOISE! OK, everyone with Turquoise instruments, post pictures for
the week of Friday 26 Jan to Thursday 1 Feb.
To start off, here is
the only Turquoise 4004 I've ever seen. It's a Laredo and belongs to John Hunt
of Milwaukee. Nice!

Maybe there is some turquoise in Jeff's rug?

That turquoise certainly is a looker.
Jeff feels as though
the rules don't apply to him.

It never gets old, Melibee! One of the best Turq's around.
