Question What color do you like most on the Valentine?

[chrose1201]

Hey all, really looking into the Valentine and there are some nice choices both new and used. I prefer the used route, but whichever presents itslef the best. What colors grab your attention that you would actually buy?

 

[Fusionman]

I always liked the natural satin ash.

I really enjoy the BFR sunburst with the herringbone skunk stripe, otherwise the baby blue or green are very nice too. It looks great in every color! It’s a great design.

I love the sparkle finishes as online viewing/window shopping, but I'm not sure I'd never own one. Just not my style.

I know what you mean. I am struggling with that one. The tobacco sparkle is really pretty though!

Shell pink, baby!

Shell pink, baby!

My wife likes that one too. It is pretty!

 

[Sweat]

Never played one but I did dig the maroon burst!

Do the BFR finishes count? Hard to beat Walnut Flame and Pine Green in my eyes...

 

[GoKart Mozart]

I've always like the natural and Buttermilk; I'm biased though...I've got one in Buttermilk.

It's funny how the Pine Green is the opposite of my Teal Strat. In person the Teal Strat looks green, but in pictures you see the blue. In the Pine Green Valentine it looks blue except at certain angles! I like the Walnut, just not a huge fan of the bound EBMM necks.

Natural is nice, but the Buttermilk is deceptively sharp!

I like this game. But Need pictures to help decide

 

[QuietSpike]

I have one in Starry Night, and that is still my favorite finish on the Val.

That is gorgeous!

My favorite is this NAMM one-off from 2017 I think

 

[chrose1201]

Not a big fan of the pickguard on that guitar, but otherwise it's a beauty! It would be a great addition to my Strat!

Wow, that's a great color and finish. I'm a sucker for translucent and stain finishes - I love seeing wood grain.

 

[msquared]

As it is I'm delighted with the ones I've got but someone sold a Saturn Gold Valentine on TGP recently and I came really close to nabbing it.

The Starry Night, BFR Walnut Flame, and Shell Pink are also finishes I'd love to have if I had unlimited funds.

There was a dark blue (looked like Neptune Blue) stained NAMM one-off that I am still bummed about having missed out on.

Fluff's one-off Valentine is absolutely killer:

My dream Valentine would have a flame maple cap, be finished in Hydrospace, and have a full rosewood neck.
