Found this on Sweetwater this morning under the Cobra color...

Is this a staining error or a new color? You decide.

It looks way off from what the colour is suppose to be. Sould be a staining issue; but could just be a a photography issue. A lot of site sometimes have over or under exposed photos.
If they were to change the colour; they wouldn't use the same name.

Sweetwater is usually pretty consistent with photos, actually have to go through like 7 steps to ensure they are top quality

The build code break down is MMM-CC-NN-PP-CC-HH where:
MMM=Model
CC=Color
NN=Neck
PP=Pickguard
CC=Case
HH=Hardware
If you look on the Sabre webpage here: Sabre, Color Code T4 checks out for Cobra Burst.

Nothing to do with this particular example but Sweetwater does have some of the EBMM models available in exclusive finishes-- Sapphire Iris and Emerald Iris-- including the Sabre. These two colors don't do a lot for me specifically but maybe it's just the models they're on. I do like to see rare finishes though.
