elduave Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 This one is coming our way for store stock. I requested Emerald Burst and was told that would be an Aztec Gold center to Emerald edge, but this is more what I had in mind. The color should be trans all the way to the edge, but it does have a Fooderman vibe to it in this pic. We'll see when it gets here. Matching headstock, wide random flame, chambered, 9 Crowns. Looks like the same top source that our Honey Standard has. Pic and text below are from Jol's blog... "Gary has just finished painting a Standard model with some amazing wide flame in a cool shade of emerald green. The matching headstock overlay was cut from the same piece as the top of the body, and Gary has duplicated the burst there too."
Guest pirateflynn Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 I love that one ... but where is MINE?!!Seriously, that's a knockout. It's Standard Heaven, lately!
holLoWskull Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 --> QUOTE(David B @ Mar 4 2008, 03:01 PM) ← Crowns? I was thinking the very same thing. It certainly does look like crowns under the tape and not victories. Perhaps you CAN still get crown inlays even after the 07' Fender acquisition? Who knows, maybe boomerangs aren't totally a dead issue either...hmm?
DavidE Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Dave says it has 9 Crowns. Must have been ordered before the deadline.That's spectacular.
elduave Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 I love that one ... but where is MINE?!!Soon, I hope!Dave says it has 9 Crowns. Must have been ordered before the deadline.Thank you DE.Matthes, C. has first shot at it.
SirDouglas Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Very nice color scheme... will be nice with the shine on it...Randy
stonge Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 I love that one ... but where is MINE?!!Soon, I hope!Dave says it has 9 Crowns. Must have been ordered before the deadline.Thank you DE.Matthes, C. has first shot at it.I'm sure Chris doesn't want that one (especially if it has an ebony board - then he REALLY doesn't want it). If the factory needed a lemon-Jello to lime-Jello color sample, there's this 8 string that Chris saw a while back...nice. but you gotta stop ordering green Standards - yer killin me lol...btw - emerald green over korina just frickin glows. not that I am suggesting anything.
bubs_42 Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 That one is pretty much perfect!Good buy it, then when you get tired of it and buy something new sell it to me. I'll just start collecting all of your discard's...
cmatthes Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Ha! The very first Standard I ever played was a Greenburst one, 27 years or so ago. That one just looks really freakin' cool.
bbobb24 Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 So now all I have to do is hit the lottery and they'll all be mine!!! What's with this urge lately telling me to get a Standard?
ET_KenW Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 I really need to stop visiting this section. Too many uber-cool guitars are coming out these days. Colors galore. So much for winter doldrums.
silentman Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Green Meanie! Schwing.... Black hardware would kill on that.
elduave Posted March 5, 2008 Author Posted March 5, 2008 Green Meanie! Schwing.... Black hardware would kill on that.That's not a bad idea. I've got one more in the works, and THAT one will definately have Black hardware...
cmatthes Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 If it's the one I'm thinking about, it'll turn some heads too. Green Meanie! Schwing.... Black hardware would kill on that. That's not a bad idea. I've got one more in the works, and THAT one will definately have Black hardware...
