    Fran's Big Al 5 colour choice poll!!! Vote Vote Vote

    Ok so... I am in the process of ordering a Big Al 5. The things I am sure so far are as follows:

    • it will be an S-S-S model.
    • it will have a maple board
    • Sadly not available in pastels colours as I would have loved a Mint Green.
    • it will have a non matching headstock
    Now what colour to get?

    Here are my preferences from the available options:
    1. Candy Red with white pg / maple board
    2. Black with white pg / maple board
    3. Blue Pearl with white pg / maple board
    Let's see what will get the most votes according to your preferences.
    Thanks

    No sunburst? Sunburst is hot. Black would be good, though.

    A kinder, gentler collection...

    I am biased seeing as I just put in an order for one today...
    but, Blue Pearl is really nice (given your choices).

    Tort with any colour.
    Laneline (i think) had a candy red bongo with tort and that looked amazing.
