In case you don't know, that's what he switched to after the EB-3. At first it only had one pickup.
He used it live toward the end of his time with Jethro Tull but didn't record with it with them.
He probably used it on this album:

Googling Inverness Green gets several shades.
That green above isn't far from some of them, for example this one:

That's Glenn Cornick baybee!

Personally, I'm not into green(except for money). My green Aerostar van was inherited from my dad and I'm too(cheap, lazy, disinterested)to paint it......er, have it painted.

I'm shocked, since he's starting with a green minivan I would have thought you'd suggest he just add some nice watermelon accents.

Wish I had thought to do that with my Miata. No pun involved, but still a cool idea.

If they had a name for a white finish it would probably be called "angel dust sparkle." Oh wait, that's probably what they were using when they came up with the names for the other colors. Never mind carry-on.

Is Angel Dust still a thing?

Hey! I'm not some one dimensional cartoon character!

But as long as you are asking...

Well played!

Likely not, and certainly not in my world now. I make no definitive statements regarding the past....

Who knew there was a watermelon super hero--other than PillO of course? Wait. That's not you is it? Don't lie, we have ways of finding these things out you know.

 

[GonePlaid]

Won’t be an easy decision. But being the Epi fanboy that I am, I will have to chose one.

Unfortunately, these pics don't show the 'depth' these colors-and the other two-have. The Sparkling Burgundy has an almost CAR quality and the Smoked Almond Metallic also looks better and less "flesh toned". The Graphite Black is somewhat metallic too.

Guiseppe Arcimboldo, my favorite Italian Renaissance painter.

Neither PillO nor Thunderbirds had been invented yet, but I'm sure he would have liked both.

Always a fave of mine, this seems appropriate today. RIP Michael Been.

Cool Ampeg fretless here.

That's serious praise, considering you have some great basses already in the collection as choices. I am glad to hear that you enjoy it, I love mine, def one of the best basses I've ever bought.
