2008 New Finishes & Pick Guards... minus 2

[fogman]

BP or Dargin,

You have blessed us with 8 new colours and pickguards which are very nice.
Originally it was said that 10 colours were coming.
I was just curious why the other 2 didn't make the cut.
Was there just too many decisions to make? Did you not really like the colours as much? Maybe we'll see them in the form of a future LE?
Any chance of us lucky peoples knowing what colours they were???

Right now I'm hoping that it means that Desert Gold and Lava Pearl are going to stick around a little longer since I have to start replacing guitars.

colour:
7 - olive gold

I'd like to see this more clearly... I wonder how different it is compared to Sequoia Gold...

And the difference in the paleness between white and pearl white? Are they the same yellowish tinge, just that one is metallic? or is white pearl really white white???

I just think it was a miscount. No worries!


Actually there were two "double top secret" finishes that are exclusively for non-forumites! hahahaha, just kidding

 

[fbecir]

I just think it was a miscount. No worries!

Or a problem of conversion between US units and metric units ...

 

[Dargin]

Foggies, I think we said around 8-10. We sprayed at least 20 test bodies. You'll see some of them in the future.
