Very nice work, Melissa.
The Fireglo and Burgundyglo leaves grab me!
Maybe your next walk in the woods will get you a "factory shaded green" apple?

'Goldenglo'? And why not refinish yourself in that color an existing 4001/4003 Bass? Anyone feeling adventurous? I am.

AutomnGlo is the one I dig...Melissa, the idea you had of taking maple leaves to show colours was brilliant! Hope to see something come out of this!!

Dedgoat, I'd love to see the pictures.... (You mean my idea has already been used?) And Sergio, go for it! I want to see the pics of a goldenglo refin.... Thanks for all the feedback.... You guys are great! And yes, Dave, the natural beauty of the landscape in this area is endlessly inspiring to me.

Without giving it a whole lot of thought, I put on my "autumn leaf" sweater today....my husband thought that he should take a picture, given the surprising popularity of this thread. This is my favorite baby: 1967 365 in my favorite fall color!

Great photo Melissa. I love the late 1960s fireglo finish with its more yellow tone toward the center of the instrument.

What, no bad puns Peter?!?
I thought my post above would've brought you out of the woods, so to speak....

Gene: And you thought you were barking up the wrong tree for a minute. An insane a xylem this is not. People phloem far and wide read this and I am sure grow weary as I stretch for these puns.
Let's get to the root of things here. I really admire Melissa for branching out here and trying something new.
Along the same vein, the comments with regard to nature and the role of trees in our lives, stands alone. At lease it rings true to me.
Sometimes we may be too focused and have trouble seeing the forest for the trees. Maple we should visit this topic more often.
I am a sap to fall for your challenge in an attempt spruce things up here. Alas, in what has to be the crowning touch, my attempt to turn things up a notch will leaf me as the butt of more jokes. Knot!
Needless to say, I hope this twigs your memory to talk about fall colors.

Great shot Melissa! I too love the Autumn-Glo color. I had a 1982 360 in Autumn-glo and it was VERY MUCH the same hue as your 365...maybe mine was a little more orange, but it's really cool how Rickenbacker can be so consistant in their colors and schemes. Actually, I have a cordoroy (sic) shirt that has almost the same leaf pattern, but it's in dark greens with the Autumn-glo leaves. Keep on rockin'!!!! al

You are right John. That is no way to be poplar.
