What about having clear plexiglass sheets on the front of the guitars. And then, instead of finishing the guitars with a color of the year, they can somehow create a way to color the inside of the guitar. Maybe with little lights, or LEDS, or something. No, maybe I am just dreaming.

A plexi-glass Ric...a la Dan Armstrong. How very cool. I,ll take a fretless with an old ebony fretboard. Would go with a lot of my furniture too...

Those Dan Armstrongs weighed a ton, looked cool though.

Yeah, or they were supposed to, I'm not sure if they ever put that into production.

OrangeGlo or TangerineGlo. Or how about a Mondrian inspired PartridgeGlo!
Yeah! PartridgeGlo!

Another vote for white-on-white. This time a non-yellowing white. With checkerboard binding please.

As I think about Rickenbacker colors and John Hall's tip to Forum participants, I am thinking that Azureglo might be a possibility.
My reasons include the recent conclusion of an extended brown tone (Montezuma Brown) which might leave Walnut and Autumnglo out of the running. A stunning color from the past was Azureglo which I think could be a strong contender for 2005.
As history will not doubt show, this reasoning may be flawed and is pure conjecture on my part, but I thought it would be fun to predict Azureglo, nonetheless. It certainly would be a departure from the trend during the past several years.

Do you think they would do AzureGlo with Midnight Blue still available? I know they are different colors but I think they are close enough to attract the same buyers.
While I like AzureGlo, I hope the color of the year is something very different from what is available today. Still hoping for "reverse trim" option to return
