Didn't John Hall hint that it was metallic? Maybe Ruby or something similar could be the color?

Is that a HINT or did you spill the beans?

So we've heard previously that there is a new colour which was a happy accident (made from an existing colour), that guitars and basses will be sprayed this colour (Ben Hall). Four models are likely and that it will be limited to 75 of each. John's cat is called Smokey Joe - what colour is a cat called Smokey if not a grey/silver. I'll go for translucent jetglo burst with some sweet anniversary details - although the Pinot Noir Glo sounds nice and easy to swallow...

How about "Apple-glo" kinda like a green apple burst. Like a Beatles tribute.. It also has to have the little dots like the Apple too.

White on white is so very classy. Did they just not sell or what? I'd be hard pressed to think of a better combo than white with checkered binding, chrome, white guard, and white TRC w/silver logo. Oh boy that would be the one!

You can't call it Apple-Glo. The Beatles will sue RIC. People will get the color confused with the Beatles record label. Just like everybody confuses iTunes with the Beatles;-)

I like the looks of white on white also, but the folks at RIC are disinclined to return to white. Here's a shot of yours truly noodling on Gary Clauson's white/white at last year's SoCalCon.

Wow, I want that bass. White/white is the coolest.

That would look cool with gold hardware...

There he is, the man who would know, hey Eric, I was wondering where you were!

This color thing has me nuts! I know you can't comment, but would you give John or Ben this message for me?

Ready?

AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!

"Thank You",,, Sounding like Cheech & Chong on Sister Mary Elephant.

Oh, by the way, I agree, White with GOLD hardware....very classy.
