I voted Buttercream but that tidepool is sweet, too!

 

[nonohmic]

Tidepool + tort.

 

[pappabass]

Black!!

Pick the color of the one that sounds the best. There is still some hand assembly in these instruments and there will be differences on even the same model.

But, if i was to pick strictly on appearance I would go with either of the models with a maple fingerboard. Just a personal cosmetic preference.

So, finally decided to buy a Fender P. From what I've heard, the Player Series (MIM) is pretty good and within my budget. Please help me choose color . Choosing between the classic Buttercream and the very cool Tidepool but I just can't make up my mind. And of course, there's always carrots...

Missus doesn't have to know anything....
Only downside is, we're both working from home, so I can't ship it to my office like I usually would.

EDIT: Just visited; nothing I want, even less that I need.

What I like about the buttercream is that you don't see too many around. The carrot either but I like how the buttercream looks with the maple .

Anyone remember Traffic Cone Orange they had on those Squiers a while back? If I was rich, I'd buy the Buttercream one right now.

For me, it's ButterCream all the way!

Personally, this is one of the best color Fender ever came up with.

I voted for the tidepool, but the buttercream looks good as well.

...I find it difficult to believe the thread has gotten this far... do you think the color of the bass is going to make it sound better/worse?

Ooooh! just went to the website!
TIde Pool!! is Sweet if you want the ladies to talk to you! TIDEPOOL!
I m gonna say try to see one in person first,before you buy. I'm sure it'll stun IRL.
I was leaning to the silver(cuz i like dark boards), then I clicked the tide pool "chip"
WOW! the capri orange im sure is nice too, but id be afraid it'd be to shocking, the butter cream is kinda meh(dirty white). I was hoping the black was the new Texas tea black but wasnt
Thanks now im gassing!GL

Buttercream + maple and keep the white pg! White and cream works fine!

I must say that I'm very surprised with the big interest in my very simple question, I love this forum! Of course the color means nothing for the feeling or tone (apart from the fretboard ) but the same goes with the color of your car...

Weim spotting! So stubborn, I'm surprised she didn't take the bass away from you and play it herself.

Good eye! That was my girl Greta, whom I lost about 2 years ago when she was 13. She could no longer stand or walk, but what a beautiful girl she was. Now I have a GoldenDoodle named Lily. Like Greta the Weimaraner, Lily is also a bundle of energy. The 3rd pic is one of my military dogs (Eric) in the late 1960s... (Sorry for the thread de-rail...)

Buttercream. Tidepool does not look as good as Lake Placid Blue to me.

 

[fishdreams]

Carrots. That pale-ish orange is a fantastic color that you see too little. My fave solid Fender color by a country mile.
