Fireglo - especially on my dad's old '72 4001. I love how it brings out the depth of the wood grain.

Montzeuma Browns are really pretty in person.
I used to really like Fireglo, but I think I've become partial to Mapleglo recently after being surrounded by beautiful ones lately (not mine, unfortunately..).

Monty Brown
Re: Favorite Rickenbacker Color ?
I have just got my first Rick Bass, it was off ebay uk and sold as a burgandy glow. The colour appears flat all over so I'm not sure why the term glow is used. However, it is beautiful.
My fave colour has to be the 4003 BLUE BOY colour of the year, I'm desperate for one of those after seeing one in the flesh.
I really like this colour and I nearly bought it before the burgandy one I bought became available http://www.chandlerguitars.co.uk/view_i ... temID=2483

That's BurgundyGlo one of my fave colours, the fact you can see the grain of the wood through such a vivid colour is great.makaze wrote:I have just got my first Rick Bass, it was off ebay uk and sold as a burgandy glow.

Re: Favorite Rickenbacker Color ?
Since I am such a fan of colors (in general) from the 70s, I would have to say that Montezuma Brown. AutumnGlo is an amazing color as well. I wish I could have a 4001 in either of these colors.

Re: Favorite Rickenbacker Color ?
I have to go with Midnight Blue, for obvious reasons:

....but I'm really hooked on that bright red with black hardware from a few years back!
