I really love the copper metallic. I've loved that color since seeing the Fender 52 RIs they did with that finish. I don't care much for blue guitars, but that's just me.

If I was getting that guitar I would get Shoreline Gold, but I like Daphne Blue too.

I think that Grosh does metallic and candy finishes so well that you'll probably be thrilled with any of them. Seriously, I'd find it really hard to pick from that group. They all look just great.

I agree with Mr. Soloway. I don't think you can go wrong with this group of colors.

THe orange metallic with black base coat is just STUNNING in person. They have had a few at Fatsound and immediately caught my eye amongst all the other candy in their shop...every time I see one...

Hi,

Did you ever see the Inca Silver with black base coat at Fat Sound? How did it compared in your opinion?

Thanks!

Charcoal is definitely the best choice in there! especially with that pickguard!

I have seen almost all of those colors in person and you know the "charcoal burst" grosh I have. The copper metallic black knudges the orange metallic black in my opinion but both of those are great colors. I would say the copper says subdued class and the orange says more "in your face" but not in a bad way.

Good Luck!

If I ever win Lotto, I'm just printing out this page and sending it to Grosh as an order form...

I'm actually very surprised haw frost charcoal is this popular...especially over grey gun metallic. They seem to be similar color and frost charcoal looks bit messy with all the small specks whereas the gun metallic grey seems simple and elegant. Clearly shows EMMV.
