Seafoam green. The real one, not the 50s kitchen counter/toilet seat green on that newfangled special PJ dog that Fender makes.

Do you like any of these any better? The bottom pic is kinda' funny. I took that pic while my wife was out of town one time. Sent her the pic with the caption, "Just wanted you to know that I'm taking good care of the babies while you're gone..." :D

Thanks! Not bad for a Factory 2nd, huh? I covered the PG with vinyl car wrap, replaced knobs, and found that vinyl Tbird logo on eBay!

Now I'm working on the Alpine White one...

Waiting on both black & white knobs to see which I like better and a white vinyl Tbird logo for PG. That's green carbon fiber wrap on this PG.

Dude, love the unlined fretless. That's one of the MIJ jobs from late 80s/early 90s right? I wanted the same one but snapped up a white one as they don't come up for sale too often.

Black and maple is a great look. I think fenders look awesome in white (not cream) with black pickgaurds and maple necks. I’ve always been a fan of dark natural finishes because they seem to fit in cosmetically with every style I like.

This is my most recent order. Should be here in a few weeks. I expect the finish to be pretty polarizing lol. Big fan of the color blue but a lot of blue basses look too purple or baby blue. If I remember right Dingwall calls this laguna seca Blue.

You've got a collection to envy between those thumbs and your incoming Dingwall!
