I'm glad you found that because I found this one just now and was wondering if it was correct.

Cool. Do we need Candy Green?

James · Post by **James** » Tue Aug 04, 2009 5:34 pm

So to avoid people finding stuff that's done, this is what it's in the most recent update.

Ivory
Monaco Yellow
Electric Blue
Black Dust Pearl
Blackstone
91 - Black Pearl Dust

I'll also add the japanese stuff OCR, OLB and the flame red and blue. Came across flame violet too.

and just in case people are wondering more about it here's another pic of Dolphin Grey

Hurrah proper stock pic. IS that Clapton's Signature? Could it even be the same colour as Candy Apple Green? Maybe my image is labelled wrong and both are CAG and neither just CG.

DanHeron · Post by **DanHeron** » Tue Aug 04, 2009 5:40 pm

ah yeah. I was thinking they could be the same.

James · Post by **James** » Tue Aug 04, 2009 5:43 pm

I would quite like nice pics of these which shouldn't be too hard to come by.

Morroco Red (international series)
Jupiter Blue (JB - Japan colour)
Gun Metal Red Burst (HH jag as mentioned earlier)

i found a page with some truly boak-worthy custom shop finishes.

http://www.strat-central.com/c3.htm

not sure if any of these were produced in any more than one-offs though.

The International series were nice!! Arctic White, Morocco Red, Maui Blue, Monaco Yellow, Capri Orange, Sahara Taupe, and Cathay Ebony.

SAHARA TAUPE:

You know it. In good condition they fetch about $2000 or so. Maybe a bit less but a fair old bit. Unlike a lot of Fender colours they look way better when very clean. If Fender re-issued that colour series I'd have a hard time convinving myself I didn't need a new guitar in Maui Blue or Capri Orange.

noirie's strat is an international series, i think.

It is. 1981 and has black plastic hardware, so I guess it's international series.

I don't think that's the original finish but it could be.

I think it is original. there are a lot of black '81 fenders that have that same fading/peeling.
