If you could take some clear pictures along the lines of the ones in the colour chart and of course in daylight, that'd be much appreciated. Full guitar, face on, minimal fussy background. That sort of thing. I setup a sheet of white fiberglassed plywood on a couple sawhorses and took some shots. I...

If yours is GMB the American colour is different. That guy's site is quite reliable and it's just a shame he only uses small images like that. I've had to take quite a few from it as I've not found them elsewhere. From the Japanese guitar I would say that this isn't your colour, but from those pict...

OK, I found a much better pic of Blue Pearl Dust and also a Silver Pearl Dust here (near halfway down): http://www.seymourduncan.com/forum/showthread.php?t=183801 Now I can see what the pearl dust series are like and mine is not a reverse burst like that.

It's perhaps 'British Racing Green' but I can't remember if that was ever an official colour. It could also be a refinish, it's difficult to tell from those pictures. I called Fender and got a bit of help, other than I expected. First, the serial # wasn't in the database which goes back to '93. I w...
