I compared the Special Green against my Blue Boy 4003 - big difference!

Nice one Steve congrats.

Nice to see you get one of those, Steve. Best color of the three specials, I think.

Very close to my "Mint Green" Stingray, but a tad more subdued.

Ah your a man after my own heart, not only do I have the special green C64, but I also have the mint green Music Man classic sting ray with the birdseye maple neck too, brilliant minds think alike, Congrats good brother..

On first view, I thought it may be close to the BB that had the green tint...Regardless, the color is looking really nice there with the MM, and I certainly prefer that more pastel shade than the original 2000 COY, which is no slouch itself.

Super looking bass. I'd have been tempted if not for that *&%$!! headstock!

I think I like it better than the Sea Green. Now, if only they'd put it on now with a "normal" headstock...

I personally like how the reverse headstock conteracts the large horn on the body.
