What he said. Olive Gold but with a roasted neck rather than the all rosewood neck that was offered to the public.

Personally, i'd love that finish on a LIII with all roasted maple neck. I adore that body colour. I works so well with the chrome pups/knobs.

Love that video. Every time I watch it I have something new to work on.

Yeah...I've worked through that one as well. His jam for the clip for his new pickups on the Dimarzio site is also worth a look. With both of them I can get most of the right notes, but they just don't sound as "right" as when Luke plays them.....he knows his stuff it seems.

Sorry for the hijack. I'm pretty sure it's Olive Gold too.

Ah, now it all makes sense! :D I know that video but I figured "can't be olive gold, they didn't come with the maple neck". But whaddaya know - it is! :) Great vid, too. :)

Edit: It's a real shame they don't offer that color anymore. I was lucky to get my hands on one before they finally vanished from retail. They pop up used once in a while, pricing remains at an almost "new-level". Talk about a collector's item. :D

Ya, I think that color rocks! It's subtle and chameleonesque. Probably my most favorite EBMM color ever. Too bad it's not still in use.
