Anyone have close up pictures of the new copper finish?

Anyone have close up pictures of the new copper finish? I'm trying to see how orange vs bronze/copper it is and how big the metal flakes are.

Thanks!

Wow. That looks great. I couldn't tell there were metal flakes in it from the videos I had seen.

Hi Pete,

Not sure if you got my request in another thread, but did you happen to get an up close of Cruz Teal as well?

Oh hell yes!!!! LOVE that finish!!!

Copper looks great, too bad it doesn't have a figured neck. That would be magical.

Any up close shots of the Chopper Blue?

Thanks Pete! Nice pictures!

I'll try and get that up on Monday, my camera is at the store.

It's a tricky color to accurately reproduce in photos, but these two will give you a good approximation of where the color sits in the palate.

Here are the lightweight tuners on the roasted necks

Stunning colors! Thanks, Pete!

ARGHHHH. So tempting. SOOO tempting. But there's always Old Smoothie....

Hey all. As Pete said, It can be tricky to get the white-balance right in these situations and a couple of them looked off to me - especially the Teal. So, I've tried to correct the white balance of the photos based on other things that are in the photo that should be white (or very close to white) like the pick guard or the tip of the pickup switch.

Hope this helps.

Even better now. Cheers!

I'm still having a hard time figuring out if that Chopper Blue has any flake/metallic paint in it. Can anyone from the company or the show confirm?

No metallic or flake. Flat gloss.

That Cruz Teal is sexy!

Those all look good. I’m tossed between the Cruz teal and chopper blue.
