    Well, if the blue wasn't sparkle I'd say green.

    BLUE.

    Trans Green all the way. But that doesn't look that much like Heinz...





    Filter or inconsistent colour?

    Lighting or camera. Look at the neck on the left one, it has a greenish overtone also.

    Yep, that's what concerns me slightly... that the seller has "enhanced" the bass's saleability by making it look greener that it actually is. Take Jack's reaction when he bought Heinz...

    I pictured translucent green as some sort of Granny Smith apple color. Little did I know! So the first time I opened the case, which would have been in early January of 2000, I was - how to put it? - a little surprised by the color.
    Here's another trans green at Bass Central...



    Personally, I think it looks good... it just doesn't look like the ebay trans green.

    It has been on Ebay lots of time from the same guy becuase his price is stupid. $860 and the reserve has not been met? Having owned Heinz for a while...the pic up top is exactly what if looks like. I think there are a few shades of trans green floating out there. I like em both.
