Holy moly, that thing is stunning. I'm sure the sounds match the looks too. Congrats!

Ooooooooooohhh!!!!

 

[Flaneur]

I like blue......

That's the same blue, that my favourite sports team wears.

 

[hemingway]

Holy moly indeed. I don't got the words.

 

[Fendereedo]

Not too cool, but extremely cool. That's a complete stunner. Congratulations.

 

[Cali Dude]

Wow, really cool!

 

[Blazer]

Good god, that thing looks good enough to eat!

I also have a guitar in that shade of blue, but it's not nearly as cool as yours is.

 

[loco gringo]

Ridiculous. Killer.

 

[richiek65]

That's a work of art

Anyone else remember this thread?

Blue guitars love them or hate them?

Never managed to get my hands on Lake Placid Blue, Daphne Blue or Mystic Blue. Or Pelham Blue! But below is Sonic Blue and faded Blue Ice Metallic.
