Seriously, what color is this?

[bholder]

Sometimes.

It is, except when it isn't - but then it's the same!

Really? Sandberg call that finish "Inca Silver"? I suppose they can do what they want, But Inca Silver to me is a standard metallic silver hue; no blue in it that I know of.
Then again...What do I know?
I know I had a Sandberg bass once, and it was excellent.

I spec'd out a Lull P-Bass that was gonna have one of his T-Bird pups. Inca Silver w Black H/S. It would have been bad A**.
Then I saw the price quote.

I don't like green. It is a shade of green that I really like. Very cool!

Whatever color it is, they at least put the right color pickguard on it (assuming you have to have a pickguard).

Looks like fender’s Ocean Turquoise. But that is a sandberg bass in your pic.

Ocean turquoise is a lot darker than that.

My new favorite color is what that is I think lol. I have never played a Sandberg, yet, but I do love the colors that they offer and bet the basses play even better than they look.

Metealque Blue

Green

It reminded me of the slides at water parks in the late 80s - early 90s but with 60s diner seatwrap metalflake.

The Rob Zombie / Tarantino fan in me wants to see it used in a movie as a murder weapon covered in ketchup-ey blood.

Once had an Ibanez in that color, my bandmates nicknamed it Poseidon's bass... so Poseidon's green could be a good name.

Behold the Poseidos's bass (mine was de-fretted - I sometimes wish I'd still have it)

Some iteration of Lake Placid Blue, I suspect. I have a few in that color range. It makes sense that Lake Placid isn't EXACTLY the same color in every part...

Sure, I know what they call it, but...

I’m the OP photo the contrast and saturation and white balance are all pretty tweaked, so it looks totally like a Tiffany Blue/aqua metallic color. But Inca Silver? Better check it in other photos (or IRL if you have the opportunity LOL)

EDIT: I tweaked OP for about 12 seconds on my phone, and I still think this is closer to the IRL color. Just check out the color of the black PG for an idea of proper color balance haha.

Yes, the original is straight from Facebook.
When I asked "Inca Silver?" the OP responded with "Yes, it's a metallic green/blue/silver."
The funny thing is, out of all the pics I found on a Yahoo search, very few of them actually looked silver, some looked green, some looked blue, etc.
