Oh, now, stop it! We all go crazy this time of the year trying to figure out what it is. You, or was it John, said on a past thread there would "be no new color of the year, per se," so we're speculating the definition of "new" and "per se"; it could be a repeat color, a return of a classic color, a continuation of the current COY -- aaaargh!

I heard a rumor that orders for BlueBurst have been suspended? Is that true. I usually don't make up my mind until December whether to jump for the COY, and perhaps I've waited too long? Please fill us in.

If that's the case I must have missed the memo.

While you got your ears on Ben, what is the actual deadline for orders placed, for the Blueburst finish?

Color of the Year? Sure, we gave Ed Roman a couple of guitars, some spray paint, a few Red Bulls, and told him to surprise us.

Hmmmmmm.... Is the "new" color of the year Autumnglo? After seeing the pics of Autumnglo revived, I wouldn't be surprised if the powers that be decided to do it! Image

I hope you confiscated all his sand paper before he modifies the neck profiles.
