New Fender P-bass color, can anyone ID it for me?

guitardefector · #1 01-02-2013, 12:26 PM

Just got a new Fender MIM P-bass, maple fretboard for Xmas. The color is very unique and awesome, at least for me. It's an orangey metallic sunburst with a dark dark chocolate hue on the edges. It's almost a dark tortoiseshell if you really look at it. This is my first glittery bass. Been trying to find the color online with no success.

Any color experts out there that can give me a clue? Thanks.

Copper burst maybe?

Thanks guys, I found it. Fender Standard P Copper Metallic Burst. The pic does not do it justice.

Yep, that's it NML1986!!! Thanks for the research. It's so gorgeous that I feel I'm cheating on my spouse when I touch her.

Since it's a limited edition, I'm guessing I got the last one at GC. Yay!

I have the same bass with a rosewood board. You are right, pictures don't do it justice. The color screams in person and is one of my favorite offerings.

Congrats Bigej2! If I ever see one with rosewood, I'm gonna snatch it and max out my plastic, since I really love the warmer tone of rosewood as opposed to the brighter maple. But yeah, I never thought I'd like glitter... and look how wrong you can be.

I just picked up a copper burst MIM Jazz a couple of weeks ago. What a great color and a great bass!

That's a sexy bass, it looks chewy like toffee.

And you haven't slapped a glittery tort guard on it yet? (I just figured I would get out front of that one.)

Nice bass!
