I'm kinda bummed myself Image

I was hoping for something "more" different. It is just a Midnight Blue where you see the grain in the center. If I didn't have a Midnight Blue already I would probably get one (it does look nice) but since I do....I won't. Hopefully my Lemmy will be in sometime this year to satisfy my craving Image

Jim would probably be all over it if it was named BlueFlameGlo or BlueFireGlo.....

I just put 20% down on one over at the music connection, but I also just looked at the other photos from the show, not the stock 360 photo. If it looks like the acoustic, I'm going to be having second thoughts. The other photo looks nice, but does rick use that nice of wood? Reminds me of a PRS top.

This is why I'm very happy with Fireglo, I'm not disappointed with the new COY

the stock photo as compared to the real life photos. The acoustic doesnt look that great, but the guitar looks nice if the ricks have that nice of wood grain. The stock photo has a nice light blue to dark blue transition, where the others, especially the acoustic, looks like they sprayed blue around the edges.

Oh, I thought you saw some newer ones. I think that I need some sleep! Anyway, I guess that we'll probably see some new images from the show sometime tomorrow. If it looks like the stock photo, I'm gonna order a new 4003 tomorrow. Thanks for clarifying.

Only this can be called BlueFlameGlo or BlueFireGlo:

That's a really nice finish, now if the flames were real Fireglo, then maybe, but Propane Blue just doesn't light my fire !!!!
