i thought they said there was no plans for new colours at the moment. they were simply removing some of the less popular colours from the colour options.

I think you're right Adam. That's what I remember as well.

Dargin definitely said this about the BFR colors with the exception being that Koa tops would now be cherry burst, not tobacco. But I think on the initial thread about colors being discontinued which was on the bass forum, it was alluded to that there would be new solid colors eventually.

I'm going to have to find the thread about the solid colors. Also, I think they ultimately said Honey Burst about the Koa BFR's, but the initial post did say Cherry...

From the bass side.

Be patient and maybe one of the newer colors will float your boat


And BK was right about the honey burst. I didn't see that Dargin's post got edited to correct the original info.

guys please understand that the new colors that we are showing are exclusive to the classic series. Do any of you feel a little spoiled with 27 different no charge color options> Nobody bought half of them remember

Cool. So that's the seafoam, cream, etc. from the bass side. Not so sure those would work as well on something other than the classic series (maybe cream would).

And yeah...27 options is a lot. Nobody else has that many options, except for maybe a custom shop operation. I'm a little disappointed about the BFR colors which were discontinued, but if they didn't sell they've gotta go. The colors which are left are really cool. And apparently more people liked them since they're still around :D

Ooops, guess I didn't read the thread I took your quote from thoroughly enough and posted it out of context. Sorry about that.
