Needless to say, we are a few paint vendors removed from THAT supplier and the painter that shot that instrument is no longer painting Rickenbackers!

That was more of an electric blue anyways. The Mid blue we have now is more like the Azureglo of years past, but has a subtle color change effect to it in some lights.

Interesting. GAS Stimulating even as I like AzureGlo a lot. The MID on my '86 MID/BT is not subtle in color changes. Under varying lights it changes from light blue to an almost black midnight blue. I like it a lot as the various Blue's and Black are my favorite colors. (Cant wait to see my still on order 4003 BBR)

BBR is a color I will most definitely miss! Lucky are those that have or will acquire a Blueburst Rick.
