Fender White Chrome Pearl in Person

[dje31]

Season's Greetings, TB!

How is Fender's White Chrome Pearl in person? I've only seen them online, from various samples, between here, Fender's site, eBay, CL, etc.. There seems to be a lot of variation.

I know a lot depends on lighting, angle, vision, monitor, resolution, etc. Sometimes it looks white, sometimes silver, sometimes a pretty dull grey.

Does it vary much between samples? Or is it fairly consistent? Thanks for your input in advance.

Ancient thread, I know...
White Chrome Pearl is unbelievable in person. I have been looking for one of those Jazz FSRs from 2012 or so and could only come up with a USA Jazz in Blizzard Pearl. They photograph similarly enough that I thought it would suffice but in person they are not even close to the same color! Blizzard is more gray; the color of an actual pearl. White Chrome Pearl stomps a mudhole in Blizzard Pearl.

White Chrome Pearl vs Blizzard Pearl...
I finally had the chance to take pics of WCP next to Blizzard Pearl. The two look similar enough in pics unless they are right next to each other so here's a good look.
The Blizzard Pearl is the more silver while the WCP looks almost champagne in contrast but the pearlescent sparkle in WCP just can't be beat.
I would have loved to get a pearl white and an Inca silver to complete the lineup but we all know what silver and white look like.

Resurrecting an old thread...
How limited of a run was the Fender White Chrome Pearl Jazz Bass in 2011 ? I picked up a used one locally about 6 months ago (mine is Mexico 2011 model) and it is hard to find info on. I did see a Fender Telecaster guitar this color for sell locally not to long ago. Thanks

It was pretty rare. Mine is a 2011 MIM as well. The first example of the color I saw was on a 75th anniversary Telecaster.
